Nothing bad could ever happen in a place like this, the famous words spoken in the movie Breakfast at Tiffanys, and when you walk inside and take a look around you will see why. Tiffany & Co. has been a world famous store for many years specialising in jewellery and the most famous of their flagship stores is the one located on Fifth Avenue. The company itself has shaped American culture creating the famous NY logo for the New York Yankees and making revisions to the Great Seal of the US, it even supplied the Union Army in the American Civil War, so it is no wonder why this famous brand is decorated with movies and even a song also named Breakfast at Tiffanys in the nineties.
Upon entering the shop, you will not know where to start, everything glitters and sparkles like you are looking into some enticing kaleidoscope of diamonds. The fine diamond, sapphire and emerald jewellery do make up a good proportion of the sales here but they also offer tableware, gifts and other cool accessories that will make great souvenirs for anyone back home. With pleasant and accommodating staff it is hard not to enjoy being inside and looking at either a forty dollar vase or a forty thousand dollar engagement ring.
There are four floors of luxury and the sixth floor is dedicated to personal and extremely nice customer service that are devoted to making the customer happy. Even if you cannot afford to cash in on some gorgeous jewellery or accessories, just make like Holly Golightly and enjoy window shopping, it will save you a lot of money and it is fun to look around.
