If you’re looking for a standout piece from Elsa Peretti’s late 1970s Chinese Zodiac collection for Tiffany & Co., the Dragon is the one to find. This sculptural gem is classic Peretti, with bold curves, smooth abstraction, and just enough movement to feel alive. She designed each zodiac sign to capture its essence, and the Dragon might be the best example—recognizable, but shaped in that dreamy, modern style only she could create.
The zodiac collection was only made for a few years and never brought back, which makes these pieces feel almost legendary among vintage Tiffany fans. The Dragon is one of the hardest to find. Made in 18kt yellow gold, it has a satisfying weight and a smooth surface that make Peretti’s work so enjoyable to wear.
For anyone born in the Year of the Dragon—1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, or 2012—this piece is a perfect match. The Dragon stands for strength, ambition, and charisma, making it the star of the collection. Even if you’re collecting just for the design, this is one you won’t want to pass up.
This is a rare, sculptural piece from a memorable time in Tiffany’s history.
