A luxury American multinational jewelry and
silverware corporation Tiffany & Co. has filed a trademark infringement
suit against brand-discount retailer Costco Wholesale, Wall Street Journalreported. Tiffany & Co. is seeking millions in damages from Costco for
selling counterfeit engagement diamond ring labeled ‘Tiffany Platinum’.
Tiffany sells its jewelry only at its own
retail stores. The fake rings were determined because Tiffany has microscopic
laser inscription on its diamonds. The rings from Costco were not engraved with
the Tiffany & Co. trademark.
Costco immediately removed all products
right after Tiffany & Co. contact last December. But Tiffany said it
decided to file suit after because Costco had sold rings for "many years,"
according to the lawsuit, WSJ added.
