Important Jewels

Our 6 December Important Jewels auction in Sydney is distinguished by several important private collections. From coloured diamonds of various hues to beautiful vintage and modern classics by famed jewellery houses including Bulgari, Cartier, Tiffany, Verdura and Van Cleef & Arpels, the sale boasts a wide array of outstanding jewels to fit every taste and style.

We are honoured to offer one of the most significant Bulgari diamond necklaces ever to come to market in Australia (lot 126). The house of Bulgari is recognised for its distinctive brand of Italian-style glamour, making some of the world’s most extraordinary statement jewels. Best known for their bold and highly original designs Bulgari jewels are a beloved of tastemakers and aficionados drawing devotees across generations: Elizabeth Taylor and Gina Lollobrigida to Julianne Moore and Jessica Chastain.

For the gemstone connoisseur seeking the exceptional, leading the field is a 26.15 carat Fancy Yellow Diamond (lot 130) supported by an extremely rare 0.70 carat Fancy Blue (lot 92), diamond both of pure unmodified hues.

These are complemented by a wealth of white diamonds including a statement-making 10.00 carat (lot 117) elongated emerald cut and a magnificent pair of 5.01 carat and 5.02 carat emerald cut ear studs (lot 146).

Superlative coloured stones also make an appearance. Featured are exceptionally vibrant Royal Blue and yellow sapphires; a selection of top-quality Colombian emeralds; and a great variety of richly saturated Rubellite, Green Tourmaline and Aquamarine.

Diamond earrings are amongst every jewellery collector’s essentials. Whether you are looking for daytime earrings or evening stunners, or those that take you from day to night, our December Important Jewels auction is brimming with fabulous options. Pavé-set hoops, minimalist studs, head-turning chandeliers and oh-so-chic clusters, diamond earrings are as versatile as they are bedazzling.

I look forward to sharing the collection with you at our viewings in Melbourne and Sydney.

CATALOGUE ESSAY

The Hope Diamond is the most famous blue diamond in history with provenance dating back to the 17th century to King Louis XIV of France. The extreme scarcity of coloured diamonds have shrouded their existence in mystery. For the discriminating connoisseur the experience of beholding the intense beauty of a coloured diamond is often likened to a true epiphany.

Coloured diamonds at auction continue to command the highest per-carat prices of any gemstone. The current lot is defined by its unadulterated pure blue hue.
