According to the Chinese tradition, twelve animals ranging from rat to pig not only represent the climate, season but also the symbol of people¡¯s character, inspired by which Paloma Picasso created the Chinese zodiac collection of charms and introduced them to the public.
Featuring an air of vitality in each of the twelve animals, this collection gives a combination of stylish personality and traditional and remarkable craftsmanship. Each charm in 18 karat gold is a perfect gift for honoring the character and spirit an individual acquires either by chance or destiny.
¡°The Chinese zodiac is a wonderful birthday tradition,¡± said the designer, Paloma Picasso. ¡°We all have a curiosity about the zodiac and whether it influences our lives.¡±
Paloma Picasso animating the creatures¡¯ distinctive traits in proud profile or playful pose, along with the Chinese tradition, celebrates the beauty and complexity of human nature through the twelve lovely animal charms. Paloma¡¯s Chinese Zodiac is available at select Tiffany & Co. stores worldwide. More information, please access sterlingtiffany.com.
