At the heart of this collection lies a dazzling 8.15-carat 'F' colour emerald-cut diamond ring (Lot 40), a true marvel of elegance and sophistication that adorns the finger with unparalleled grace. Complementing this extraordinary centrepiece is a breathtaking 15.12-carat diamond ring (Lot 45), showcasing the remarkable brilliance and allure of nature’s rarest treasures.

In homage to Cartier’s esteemed panther motif, we proudly present reimagined creations that captivate as both a pendant (Lot 44) and a strikingly lifelike ring (Lot 25). This enduring motif, beloved by the esteemed Wallis Simpson, reflects defiance, power, and freedom.

We are honoured to showcase two of Verdura’s renowned Maltese Cross Cuffs (Lot 29 & 30) inspired by designs originally crafted for Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel’s personal jewellery collection. These pieces are the epitome of haute couture jewellery, blending bold and daring detailing with refinement and depth to create truly unforgettable treasures.

Adding a vibrant burst of colour to our selection is an exceptional emerald ring (Lot 21) sourced from the lush landscapes of Colombia, boasting electrifying hues that captivate the eye. Furthermore, an attractive ring featuring a unique teal sapphire (Lot 35), offering a refreshing twist on traditional gemstone colour. To complete our kaleidoscope of coloured gems, we present a spectacular tanzanite ring by Graff (Lot 31), radiating an aura of sophistication that is simply unparalleled.

Verdura

Born into an aristocratic Sicilian family in 1898, Fulco di Verdura infused his jewellery designs with artistic flair and a love for vibrant colours. He favoured bold gemstones and rich yellow gold, resulting in pieces that exuded a captivating blend of joie de vivre and glamour, attracting a discerning clientele who appreciated his unique aesthetic.

In a twist of fate, a chance encounter with Coco Chanel in the bustling city of Venice in 1926 changed the course of Fulco di Verdura's life. This serendipitous meeting led him to her Parisian fashion house, where his artistic spirit would blossom and his journey as a designer would begin.

Starting with textiles, he soon transitioned to jewellery design, where his creativity flourished as he reimagined Chanel's personal collection and went on to craft iconic pieces for the house, such as the Maltese cross bangle in 1930, a signature element of his work.

Drawing inspiration from the eight-pointed Star of the Knights of Malta, Verdura's Maltese cross bangle exemplifies his unique style with its bold colours and vibrant gemstones. Verdura's designs continue to captivate collectors and adorn the wrists of discerning jewellery lovers, a testament to his enduring legacy.
