Bursting with brilliance
Hearts On Fire diamonds all feature a perfect ring of eight hearts on the bottom and a perfectly formed, symmetrical ‘Fireburst’ on the top. As light enters the diamond, it descends downward into the pavillion. Too deep or too shallow a cut, and the light that gives a diamond its brilliance is lost. However, because of its perfectly symmetrical cut and increased surface area, a Hearts On Fire diamond captures that light and reflects it from the top, creating maximum brilliance. A fact that shines forth in the Triplicity pointed line 18K white gold bracelet featured here.

Gentle glow
Tresor Paris has launched a new ring in a similar style to that which Prince Harry gave to Meghan Markle on their engagement. This yellow diamond version is Asscher cut and represents a good investment as coloured diamonds are much rarer than their white counterparts.
Set in platinum, the pear shape, three stone diamond ring is a striking piece reflecting emerging design trends.

Holding a Secret
Renowned for designing exemplary jewelled
timepieces, Graff’s sapphire and diamond beaded tassel brooch conceals a secret watch. Combining meticulously selected sapphires, ensuring continuity in colour, fluidity and vibrancy, a tassel conceals a pavé diamond watch face suspended from a delicate platinum chain.
Two ornate brooches with pear shape sapphires at their centres are surrounded by the finest white diamonds, united by five rows of sapphire and diamond beads. This stunning item of jewellery can be worn three ways, as a single piece, individual brooches, or as a brooch complete with tassel.
Talking piece
Part of Giovanni Raspini’s Jungle Collection, this oversized blue parrot necklace in sterling silver features real feathers. The necklace is particularly lightweight because the parrot is made by an electroforming technique that allows the object to be completely hollow inside. A full 35cm long including feathers, the piece is handmade in Italy.
