Tiffany jewelry is world-renowned for its class and craftsmanship--and multiple movie references (such as "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "Sweet Home Alabama") don't hurt its reputation. But of course, it's very expensive. There are, however, ways to find Tiffany "inspired" jewelry online.
Instructions
- 1
Go to the Tiffany website and find the piece of jewelry that you're really interested in. Tiffany "inspirations" vary in quality, but by familiarizing yourself with the real thing, you'll be able to tell if your inspiration is passable or just a pass. Things to look at are the engraving quality, the orientation and placement of any adornments and the overall finish and luster of the piece. These typically (along with higher-grade materials) are what you'll lose buying an inspiration.
2Write down the name of the collection you love--most sites will fairly brazenly list "Atlas Collection Inspirations" or "Hearts Inspirations."
3Check through the sites listed in Resources below. The best site I have seen for a cross-section of selection and price is Eve's Addiction. You should be able to find your piece on one of those sites.
4Compare and see if it's available on another site. Inspirations can vary greatly, and you want to find the most similar, best quality product available for your money.
5Find an inspiration you are happy with, buy it and enjoy! And whenever someone says, "Is that from Tiffany?" just smile. You got it for a bargain!
