Tiffany & Co. (since 1837)

Tiffany & Co was established in 1837 by Charles Lewis Tiffany and John B. Young in New York. In 1845, Tiffany published the first ever mail-order catalogue of the US. Due to its headquarters being located on Fifth Avenue since its opening in 1910, Tiffany’s soon became widely famous. It was even appointed the purveyor to the Austro-Hungarian court in Vienna. Last but not least, the motion picture ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ introduced an even larger audience to the company.
