Tiffany & Co Elsa Peretti 18K Yellow Gold Vintage Bangle

Vintage Tiffany and Co set designed by Elsa Peretti in 18K yellow gold featuring a sculptural wave bangle bracelet with flowing organic form. The bangle weighs 19.86 grams with seamless construction.

The bangle showcases Peretti's signature organic aesthetic with continuous flowing lines that wrap around the wrist in sculptural wave patterns. High-polish 18K yellow gold finish creates luminous reflections that emphasize the fluid curves and dimensional form. Each wave flows seamlessly into the next, creating kinetic visual interest as the bangle moves on the wrist.

Elsa Peretti revolutionized jewelry design during her five-decade collaboration with Tiffany and Co, beginning in 1974 when she introduced her groundbreaking Bone Cuff and other organic forms inspired by nature. The Italian-born designer trained as an interior designer and worked as a fashion model before channeling her artistic vision into jewelry, creating sculptural pieces that rejected traditional gemstone-focused designs in favor of pure metal forms. Peretti's aesthetic drew from natural objects like beans, bones, and water droplets, translating organic shapes into wearable art through innovative metalworking techniques. Her designs became instant icons of 1970s modernism and remain among Tiffany's best-selling collections decades later. Collectors prize vintage Peretti pieces for their timeless modernist aesthetic, exceptional craftsmanship in precious metals, and the designer's legendary status in jewelry history. Her work bridges fine art and wearable design, with pieces held in permanent museum collections worldwide, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the British Museum.
