Jean Schlumberger (1907-1987), who designed for Tiffany & Co. in the mid 20th century, became noted for his naturalistic and whimsical designs. Always looking for the unique in the mundane, his designs offer a glimpse into a remarkable imagination where jewel-encrusted flora and fauna depict a world of glamorous Surrealism. Most of all, Schlumberger drew inspiration from the sea, from oceanic creatures and plants, with their fantastic feel of the surreal or prehistoric. During the height of his career at Tiffany, Schlumberger's designs were worn by 20th-century icons such as Greta Garbo, Elizabeth Taylor and Jacqueline Onassis.
