Five dials cut from one piece of Venini glass distinguish a new edition of the Eternity by Tiffany watch, presented for Blue Book 2026

Tiffany & Co. Brings Venini’s Murano Glass to the Eternity Watch

 

LE MILE

 

For its latest Eternity by Tiffany watch, Tiffany & Co. has worked with Venini to turn a single piece of Murano glass into five individual dials. Introduced for the autumn presentation of Blue Book 2026: Hidden Garden in Venice, the limited series combines the glass with aquamarine hour markers and an 18k white-gold case and bracelet set with diamonds.

 

Venini, founded in Murano in 1921, brings its knowledge of colour and glassmaking to an unusually small surface. Each dial is cut from the same block of glass, measuring just 20 by 8 centimetres, and fitted into a 28mm cushion-shaped case. The blue and white patterns vary from one dial to the next, giving each watch its own arrangement of colour within the same design.

The aquamarines introduce another kind of variation. Twelve stones mark the hours, each in a different cut, from a heart and a pear to a marquise, an Asscher and Tiffany True. The idea comes from Tiffany advertisements of the 1960s, which inspired the Eternity collection. In those images, engagement rings form a heart, a question mark and an exclamation mark. On the dial, that variety of cuts gives each hour its own shape.

Much of the work on the bracelet concerns how it will move on the wrist. Every link is individually set and adjusted for flexibility, with the diamond-setting alone requiring 35 hours. Across the case, bracelet and crown, 500 diamonds weigh a total of 5.47 carats. A solitaire on the crown makes a further reference to the house’s engagement rings, held in the six-prong design of the Tiffany Setting.
