International renowned American jeweller Tiffany & Co. announced the opening of the New Zealand’s very first flagship store in the historic and very ornate ‘Australis House’ (Constructed in 1906) which was recently refurbished as a part of Auckland’s ‘Britomart Redevelopment Programme’ under the strict eye of heritage architects to preserve its historic reminiscent features.
The new store on 36-38 Customs Street will face the infamous Takutai Square and Waitemata Harbour in Auckland’s premier shopping location Britmart and will ofcourse occupy the entire ground floor. Opening date would be around the first week of November 2016.
Besides featuring the infamous Tiffany® Setting, the ultimate engagement ring and wedding bands, the store will also feature bejewelled masterpieces of Jean Schlumberger, sculptural jewellery of Elsa Peretti and bold creations of Paloma Picasso.

We are excited to share our magnificent jewellery designs in such a special location in Auckland” said Glen Schlehuber, vice president and managing director of Tiffany & Co. Oceania.
