Tiffany & Co. is pushing deeper into horology with the release of two highly limited, craft-driven timepieces that blur the line between watchmaking and collectible art objects.
Leading the drop is the Singing Bird on a Clock, a playful yet technically complex piece from the brand’s Time Objects collection. Developed over two years in collaboration with Swiss automaton specialist Reuge, the design reimagines Jean Schlumberger’s iconic Bird on a Rock as a fully animated sculpture. Housed in a transparent glass case, a diamond-set bird comes to life on command, chirping and moving in sync with a mechanical melody powered by traditional bellows and pipes. The piece doubles as a functioning clock, complete with an eight-day power reserve, but its real appeal lies in the spectacle. Limited to 25 editions, it’s equal parts engineering feat and exquisite decorative statement.
On the more wearable side, Tiffany introduces the Paradise Bird Parrot timepiece as part of its Blue Book 2026 high jewelry collection. Drawing from Schlumberger’s fascination with exotic birds, the design transforms the dial into a miniature tropical scene. A gem-set parrot, complete with turquoise body, sapphire eye, and diamond detailing, perched atop a vivid chrysoprase stone, set against layers of dazzling hand painted enamel foliage. The 36 mm white gold case is fully snow-set with diamonds, reinforcing the piece’s status as high jewelry first and timepiece second, limited to only 10 pieces.
Together, the two releases highlight Tiffany’s continued expansion into high-concept watchmaking, where traditional Swiss mechanics meet the house’s legacy of playful, nature-inspired design.
