I'm going to NYC in July and I'm going to go to Tiffany's & Co. and if they have this in the store I'm buying one for me and one for my donor (Etta)!  If they don't have them in the store then I'll order them.  Isn't it great?!  :clap;   You may have to copy and paste to see.

Actually, the description that Tiffany's gives for the "bean" is:

The bean represents the origin of all things. Pendant in sterling silver, 9 mm wide. On a 16" chain. Original designs copyrighted by Elsa Peretti.

I don't think it has anything to do with "kidney", but it's close enough for me!  :D   PLUS, it's from TIFFANY & Co.!!!  She'll love it!   :clap;  And it will come in that beautiful Tiffany's box.  You have to be a woman to get that.   ;)
