The Show-off Item: Tiffany & Co. Homeware

Is it any surprise that Reed Krakoff’s debut collection as the jeweller’s chief artistic offi cer has nothing to do with jewellery? Not quite, if you consider this design buff’s passion for fl ipping high-end homes and expensive taste in art and furniture, but we digress. What’s game-changing about his Home & Accessories line is how it elevates over 30 unexpected household items (tin cans, pill boxes and even ping-pong bats) into intellectually humorous, highly collectible curios, reviving interest in the brand’s long-standing (and long underrated) lifestyle arm. If you’ve never popped by Tiff & Co. to do some home shopping, you will now. – IJ
