When she walked in, the party stopped. Her dress was slinky and silver; her hair was done up in a bob. Pretending not to notice all the attention, she approached the bar and asked for a coupe of champagne. After a few moments, I walked up and asked for her name. “Chloe,” she said between drags from her cigarette holder. Though everyone was done up for this 1920s-themed party, she had obviously put in the most effort.

Presenting the Deco Continental Ring, jewelry that places tanzanite and white topaz in 14-karat yellow gold-finished .925 sterling silver. Tanzanite can only be found one place on Earth: remote hills in the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro. Tanzanite is no ordinary gemstone. Henry Platt, past president and chairman of Tiffany & Co., called tanzanite, “the most important gemstone discovery in over 2,000 years.” This ring offers a fresh take on art deco, one of the boldest and most beautiful visual styles ever. — Jack B.
