Luxury jeweler Tiffany & Co. is closing on Kansas City’s Country Club Plaza

Iconic luxury jewelry retailer Tiffany & Co. is leaving the Country Club Plaza — again.

In a statement, Tiffany officials said: “The Kansas City community has welcomed Tiffany & Co. since our arrival at Country Club Plaza. ... We thank our clients for their loyal support.”

The last day of service will be Jan. 16. They directed customers to Tiffany.com, as well as to their closest brick-and-mortar store in St. Louis, but declined further comment.

The Plaza store opened in 2004, taking a 5,400-square-foot corner space at 301 Nichols Road, after a downsizing by former tenant Eddie Bauer.

Tiffany had previously opened a storefront on the Plaza in late 1983 but closed two years later.

Plaza officials declined to comment.

The shopping district currently has about two dozen empty spaces and also is losing another longtime jeweler, Helzberg Diamonds, which has been a fixture since late 1948. It plans to close at the end of January.
