Own a CryptoPunk NFT? Tiffany & Co will turn it into a custom-designed pendant you can wear in real life.

American jeweller Tiffany & Co is jumping on the NFT bandwagon. The house announced on Monday that it is launching its inaugural NFT programme – aptly named NFTiff.

The pendants are, however, limited in supply – only 250 will be produced, each with its CryptoPunks edition number engraved on the back. Owners will also receive a digital render of the pendant as an NFT and a certificate of authenticity. The pendant caught the attention of blockchain technology innovators Chain, who created the NFTiff pass and online gateway,“As a CryptoPunks holder, I saw a partnership with Tiffany as a way to make NFTs accessible to new collectors as well as strengthen the existing community that has embraced the art,” said Deepak Thapliyal, CEO of Chain.
