Tiffany expands Titan with freshwater pearls in bold new designs
Tiffany’s Titan adds 11-12 mm freshwater pearls, pairing spear-like hardware and pavé diamonds to recast pearls as bold, gender-fluid luxury.
Freshwater pearls just got a harder edge at Tiffany. The house has added them to Tiffany Titan by Pharrell Williams, turning a category still often coded as classic or bridal into something larger, sharper and openly fashion-forward. The new necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings center on pearls over 11 mm, a scale that pushes the stone into statement territory rather than genteel accessory mode.
The pearl chapter was announced on September 10, 2024, as the second phase of the Titan collaboration, and it leans into a water-born story Pharrell Williams has tied to Poseidon, ruler of the sea and king of Atlantis. That name matters twice over: Atlantis is also the Virginia Beach community where Williams grew up. Tiffany frames Titan as an expression of rebellious creativity, and the pearl pieces make that idea visible in the metalwork, where spear-shaped or spike-like motifs thrust through or frame the pearls and pavé diamonds add flash without softening the silhouette.
The effect is less strand-and-drop, more armor with a tide line. A pearl ring with a freshwater pearl and pavé diamonds in 18k yellow gold, listed at 11 to 12 mm, shows how the collection uses size as the first signal of change. The hardware does the rest. Sharp forms, polished gold and diamond pavé keep the design from drifting into resort shorthand, while the large pearls supply the glow that has made pearl jewelry feel newly relevant to buyers looking beyond traditional studs and sautoirs.
Titan did not arrive as a one-off pearl exercise. The first launch came in May 2024 in 18k yellow gold or black titanium, offered in all-metal and diamond versions, and Tiffany extended the line again in January 2025 with Tahitian pearl designs and a new Titan Setting. That staged rollout shows Tiffany building a broader pearl vocabulary around Pharrell Williams rather than treating pearls as a seasonal accent. In the process, Titan has moved pearls into a more gender-fluid register, where scale, attitude and construction matter as much as luster.
