Elsa Peretti (1940-2021) was an Italian jewellery designer and philanthropist as well as a former fashion model. Her jewellery and design pieces for Tiffany & Co., are included in the 20th century collection of the British Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. In 1974 Peretti, the fashion model of Halston, Helmut Newton and Francesco Scavullo, arrived at Tiffany's with her modern jewelry. John Loring's Tiffany Style - 170 Years of Design, devotes 18 pages of images of her jewelry and tableware design. She was largely responsible for the restoration of the village of Sant Martí Vell in Catalonia, Spain. Through her foundations, she supported a wide variety of cultural, social, and artistic causes.
