Tiffany's to shine for opening

W ITH JUST two days to go until the public opening of the Bay Area's newest Tiffany & Co. store, the diamond rings and silver charm bracelets are already glittering inside their glass cases.As the jewelry and other objects -- including some famous pieces from the Tiffany archives -- glistened in the store, construction workers outside were putting the finishing touches on the exterior of the company's fourth Bay Area Store, which will join others in Palo Alto, San Jose and San Francisco.

The store opens it stainless steel doors Saturday -- a day before Mother's Day.
