Frank Gehry’s buildings are widely known and celebrated worldwide, with his Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain taking a large piece of the credit for that city’s newly achieved prominence on the world stage.
Although designing a line of jewelry for Tiffany & Co. might seem odd at first, the pairing turned out a success. Gehry often designs the preliminary ideas for his buildings in messy, rough sketches, eventually transformed into buildable models by his staff, and the process was likely similar for the jewelry. Tiffany describes most of his pieces as containing an “inner energy” and the label certainly fits when Gehry’s jewelry is contrasted with what you’d normally find in a Tiffany’s store.

I got this amazing ring last week but I found out it the stone was Cubic Zirconia at first i didnt like it but it was gorgeous i couldnt tell the difference it was beautiful, i think its just as good as the real thing!
Hello there
Cubic zirconia are man-made diamonds (synthetic diamonds) and are consider semi-precious stones. They are a great substitute to the real thing at a much lesser price. They too come of course in different grades and the prices vary based on the quality and the cut of the stone.
