Editor's Verdict
The Winner: Schlumberger Sixteen Stone
"The Tiffany Schlumberger collection is the one Tiffany line that holds value pre-owned. Hand-set, limited production, and tied to Jean Schlumberger's archival design — it's a different category from the broader Tiffany catalog. Everything else is for wearing, not investing."
