拍品資料及來源
Tiffany品牌賦予鑽石、祖母綠、紅寶石、藍寶石及珍珠等，夢幻般的設計。歷史回溯至一百二十五年前，Tiffany公司出售大量彩色寶石，寶石來自美國礦內，由寶石學家George Frederick Kunz採集，他常為尋找稀有珍貴的樣本而於國內旅行。令其感到驚奇不已的，是一塊於1822年在緬因州出土的碧璽。五十餘年後，Kunz為Charles Tiffany提供了一塊質地上乘的綠石，緊接著又提供了一批美麗的粉紅石。Tiffany's以為世人呈獻珍稀罕有的寶石為榮。在1889年於巴黎舉行的世界博覽會上，Tiffany's首次展覽緬因州出土寶石，粉紅色碧璽便位列其中。1900年再次於巴黎舉行的世界博覽會上，粉紅色碧璽第二次亮相。Tiffany於1900年世界博覽會上展出的一枚鑲嵌六十二顆粉紅色碧璽的玫瑰形別針，及於1901年水牛城泛美博覽會上展出的一枚實物大小的粉紅色碧璽康乃馨別針，可謂是Tiffany展出過的兩顆最重要的風紅色碧璽鑲嵌珠寶。
Tiffany設計的粉紅色碧璽珠寶，均來源於緬因州。那裡的礦床常出產覆盆子般的粉紅色晶體，好比這枚別針。此枚別針為Tiffany現存最大粉紅色碧璽別針之一。粉紅色碧璽互相配合堪稱完美，極有可能從由同一塊原石切割而成。鑲嵌鑽石，在二十世紀初的煤氣燈房間內，尤其耀眼奪目。此枚別針是Tiffany於上個世紀之交的精湛珠寶工藝之體現。
