Tiffany & Co. was the first U.S. company to adopt the standard 925 sterling silver alloy in 1851 influencing the global standard and solidifying its reputation for quality and excellence in silver production. Tiffany’s legacy in silver began with a partnership with New York silversmith John C. Moore in 1851, whose son Edward later became Tiffany’s chief designer and shaped much of its silver aesthetic. Today, Tiffany silver designs are prized in major museums worldwide and continue to reflect a blend of craftsmanship, artistry, and enduring design standards.
