Jean Schlumberger (June 24, 1907 – August 29, 1987) was a French jewelry designer especially well-known for his work at Tiffany & Co. He is a superb example of the abstractions from natural shapes of its designer.A defector from the cult of modernism, Schlumberger created jewelry whose forms originated in what one critic called ”a parade of flora, fauna and everyday objects.Schlumberger’s designs at Tiffany Jewelry . were remarkable for their whimsical interpretations of natural forms. He was especially inspired by sea creatures and other animals. Diana Vreeland wrote that Schlumberger “appreciates the miracle of jewels. For him, they are the ways and means to the realization of his dreams.”
