Tiffany & Co. brought its latest high jewellery collection, the 2016 edition of the Blue Book, to Beijing, hosting VIPs, celebrities and members of the press in an exquisite gala.

The theme for this year's collection by design director Francesca Amfitheatrof is 'The Art of Transformation' featuring the world’s most magnificent jewels in underwater motifs.

"In this collection, we are taking you on a journey through nature"

"From the deep ocean, we float to the edge of the water where stillness reigns. In this world, cocooned in calm, transformation occurs. Life changes, and nature reaches to the surface and takes its first breath of air. It’s a story about evolution and all that is possible in silence and peace, where nature plays its magic and creates the mysteries of the world we live in." Amfitheatrof explains.
