[DOC] company response: Statement by Linda Buckley, Vice President, Media Relations, Tiffany & Co

“As noted in the Professional Jeweler article of Feb. 16, 2005, that is reproduced on your Web site, Tiffany & Co. is following the guidance provided by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. When the U.S. Congress enacted the Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act of 2003, Tiffany ceased purchase of all rubies, spinel and jadeite. We were among very few companies to do so. We asked Customs for clarification and are now abiding by its ruling.”
