Tiffany does Ritini

[decodelighted]

Has anyone else seen the new "Circlet" collection at Tiffany''s ... that seems to be a Ritini Endless Love knockoff?

I got the new catalog over the weekend and they''re showing a three stone/three halo ring that looks JUST LIKE the Ritini three stone halo ring. Went to the Tiff website to try to find a pix for you guys but it isn''t posted.

This pendant was though ... look, um, familiar?

Even TIFFANY has gone HALO-CRAZY.

I saw it at Tiffany''s a while ago, I like the Ritani better.

I saw them at Tiffany''s the other day when I was there. i like the Ritani better too. If I remember correctly I think Ritani used to work at/for Tiffany''s.

I don''t like it.

The proportion of the halo to the stone is off...the halo is too big for my taste. But even Tiff''s recognizes halos are a major jewelry movement!

Yeah I actually kind of HATE it. I was just suprised at how BLATENT a rip off it seems to be.

How far Tiffany''s has fallen in the "trend-SETTING style" game!

I wouldn''t turn down a *classic* Tiffany treasure or two though!

Its is much chunkier looking than ritani. I don''t like it but I think the ritani is beautiful in photos.

Adwar Casting Company has the cast for a pendant, very similar to that three stone ring of Ritani/Tiffanys.

I agree with firegoddess, the halo is much too big for the stone. I would have thought that tiffany''s would get this right. Halos are really getting popular these days. I remember when you''d never see one out in public, but only here on pricescope. I still like them, but I''m a little worried that they won''t be in style forever....

The Ritani setting has much smaller stones set in the halo pave, so as to showcase the stone instead of overpowering it!!

I think as a "halo" it is too big for the stone... but as a "cluster" it''s just fine lol! I''m looking forward to when people get a little more creative with their halos playing with different sizes and shapes of stone like they did ''back in the day'' with those gorgeous edwardian, victorian, art deco "halos". A regular halo would look sooooo horrible on my stone!!

I think Ritani does it better. I like Tiffany''s more unique, signature stuff, when they are first with an idea - I don''t like it when they produce a style that''s already out there!
