The 'Ribbon Rosette' brooch set at the center of this necklace was once a separate jewel commissioned by Mrs. Blackburn’s husband, modelled after a necklace of similar design worn by Audrey Hepburn while promoting the film Breakfast at Tiffany’s. A long time admirer of Audrey Hepburn, Mrs. Blackburn wore the piece to embody her role model’s grace and charity. The ribbon necklace, also by Tiffany & Co., was adapted to accommodate the brooch and the diamond link that was removed was adapted into the small unsigned brooch which accompanies this lot.
