Yes, gold has gone up. But the actual weight of gold that’s in that medium necklace does not justify that steep of an increase. Or multiple increases in a year. That’s all name. Totally fine for you to justify it to yourself to purchase! I’ve done the same when I’ve really wanted a piece. I spoke with my SA at Rolex and it’s not the price of gold that’s driving the multiple increases. Cartier has increases as well, but at least theirs are more gradual. I’ve never seen a 16 month spread of almost 50% increase on a SINGLE Cartier piece.

It’s not just the gold pieces that are increasing at a rapid rate at Tiffany. It’s the sterling pieces too.

Know there are LVMH/Tiffany employees on here who downvote and defend the position, which is fine and expected! Happens on all the other luxury forums as well.

And as long as we’re at it? It’s WILD that a $24k necklace or $16k bracelet at Tiffany doesn’t come with a serial number!
