A scintillating array of diamond jewels from drop earrings to pendant necklaces
Dubai, UAE - The House of Graff, the world's most respected name in luxury jewellery, unveils two awe-inspiring collections - Snowflake and Butterfly. Fanning out a delectable spread of drop earrings, pendant chains and necklaces shimmering with the finest diamonds and pink sapphires, the international jeweller explores dramatic shapes embracing pear, marquise, oval and round brilliants. As expected, Graff causes more than a simple flutter, with its stunning recreation of two of nature's most delicate and beautiful motifs with choice pieces designed to make the heart skip a beat or two.
Pretty little snowflakes
It is a proven fact that no two snowflakes are alike. Graff takes its artistic license to new heights with a tribute to one of nature's most unique creations - the snowflake. The Snowflake collection offers a pendant necklace and a pair of drop gorgeous earrings that ingeniously assemble choice diamonds to reproduce the pure white of a snowflake with rather flattering effect. The result is delicate artistry that one can wear with panache!
Made up of rings of brilliants encircling an awesome diamond in the centre, this design is held in place by four diamonds of gradually increasing sizes that dangles temptingly, to form the pendant of a necklace and as matching drop earrings of dazzling magnificence. As jewels of true opulence, they splendidly declare Graff's unique design philosophy.
Butterfly beauties!
Inspired by one of nature's most colourful creations, the butterfly, Graff depicts the natural grace that these creatures have come to be associated with, in jewels that bring into play a combination of rich hues and shapes. The first jewel on offer is an Arabesque drop-earring, entirely composed of dramatic white diamonds. In this piece, a hollow crescent-shaped ring of white gold heavily encrusted with pave diamonds features a bow-shaped butterfly in marquise and pear-shaped diamonds that rest ever so prettily on the crescent. This in turn is ringed by round brilliants dangling five huge pear-shaped diamonds like a tassel - a truly stunning 'gypsy-number' for its sophisticated lady.
In addition, the collection presents two pendant necklaces that pay homage to the rare charm of the butterfly. It does so by bringing into play delicious pink sapphires with the deep white luminescence of diamond dazzle. The first depicts a pink butterfly from the outer tips of whose wings rises the rounded white gold links of the necklace, interspersed with round brilliants. The butterfly in turn holds one awesome oval pearl from a single brilliant in a piece of perfect poise.
The other pendant necklace is a perfect match for the Arabesque earring and features a similar pink butterfly that holds a crescent moon from which 'drips' a long tassel made up of white brilliants and pink, pear-shaped sapphires. The white gold necklace, made up of round links, is in turn bedecked with pink sapphires and round brilliants. In both pieces Graff departs from its signature style where stones take centre stage, by displaying the white gold links on its pendant necklaces.
As creations inspired by the fragile beauty of snowflakes and butterflies, both signature collections are splendid odes to their lasting charm. Each handcrafted jewel stands out anywhere in the world for the superb cuts and facets of the finest gems.
Winner of its fourth Queen's Award in 2006, the famed jewellery house from London continues to win accolades for its fabulous jewels. What makes its stones even more exclusive is that each of them is laser inscribed on the girdle with the Graff logo and unique Gemological Institute of America (GIA) identification number.
