Beloved American Jeweler to LVMH’s Crown Jewel

Tiffany and Co.’s 183-year American story came to an end in 2019 after French luxury giant LVMH announced plans to acquire the company. The sale did not progress smoothly and after more than a year of back-and-forth, LVMH completed its acquisition, in 2021 for a slightly-reduced $16 billion price tag. 

In the years since, Tiffany’s earnings have doubled, LVMH’s stock price has risen 50%, and Bernard Arnault—LVMH Chairman and CEO—became the world's richest man.
