International jewellery firm Tiffany & Co has released a new gold charm bracelet that one website has described as likely to make "photography fanatics go weak at the knees".

Photographypress.co.uk states the bracelet is made from 18ct gold and features a miniature gold camera charm, complete with adjustable diamond lens.

It adds that the charm itself is priced at £975, with the chain costing an additional £975 for a grand total of £1,950.

Tiffany was established in September 1837 as Tiffany and Young, as a stationery and fancy goods store on Broadway in New York City. According to the company, its policy of having non-negotiable prices for every product made headlines at the time.

In 1837, it introduced its famous blue boxes and the colour would go on to become synonymous with the firm being used for its bags, brochures and in adverts.

In 1961, the firm was immortalised in the Oscar-winning Audrey Hepburn film Breakfast At Tiffany's.

More recently, Tiffany's launched a range of jewellery designed by award-winning architect and designer of the Guggenheim museum in Bilbao, Frank Gehry.
