Tiffany & Co.
Tiffany Masterpiece - Francesca Amphitheatroph's Reflections on American Jewelry Classics. Monochrome jewelry made of noble platinum and diamonds look a little more modest compared to precious counterparts from the Place Vendome. The most expensive item in this collection is a $ 725,000 necklace. 25 patented Lucida square-cut and round-cut diamonds weighing 22.13 carats form a perfect ceremonial system. The back of the piece is a flexible ribbon studded with pavé diamonds.
De beers
The new collection London by De Beers has five sets dedicated to the main attractions of the British capital. The most expensive piece of jewelry went into the one that honors the Battersea power plant. This is a Battersea Light necklace with a detachable diamond pendant (top color category D, weight 10.92 carats), estimated at $ 1.7 million. In principle, a rather modest amount compared to the cost of the power plant itself - in 2006 it was acquired by an Irish company Real Estate Opportunities for £ 400m
Piaget
About 2 million Swiss francs - this is the amount that some lucky man will cost the most "sunny" necklace from the new Sunny Side of Life collection. The price of a place in the sun is largely due to the rarity and value of stones - Colombian emeralds of rich color (one pear-shaped 4.99 carats and seven cushion-shaped cuts with a total weight of 27.85 carats). A pleasant bonus is the multifunctionality of the jewelry: a piece with seven emeralds can be unfastened and worn like a bracelet.
Dior
In the Dior à Versailles collection there are a lot of jewelry created on a royal scale (and it is dedicated, we recall, to Versailles during the time of Louis XIV). But the crown of all - the Chambre du Roi necklace for € 2.1 million. For him, the creative director of Dior Joaillerie Victoire de Castellane creatively rethought the design of the tiara, “turning it over”. Made of white, pink and yellow gold in combination with blackened silver, the necklace is encrusted with almost 1,000 diamonds and a large Sri Lankan sapphire of 11.5 carats (the total weight of the stones is 46 carats).
Van cleef & arpels
In the emerald collection Émeraude en majesté, each jewel plays a solo part. But the main (and most expensive) soloist in this jewelry symphony was the Serrania necklace worth more than € 3 million, created around a 26.43-carat cushion-cut Colombian emerald. The stone is set in a delicate setting of platinum, white gold and diamonds. The composition is completed by a removable pendant in the form of a rare and large Baroque pearl.
Boucheron
In the new collection of the 26 Vendome: Le Style en Héritage jewelry house, many pieces claim the main role, but its highest paid star is the Lys Radiant necklace. € 3.57 million - this is the amount the jewelry was estimated at. The cost is explained not only by the rarity of the central stone - a yellow diamond weighing 20.08 carats - but also by the complexity of the work: the best jewelers of the brand worked on this jewelry for 1269 hours. They created a multifunctional design (the flower can be detached from the necklace and worn as a brooch) and diamond-encrusted rhinestone petals.
Chanel
The Fete de Moissons ("Harvest Festival") necklace is truly festive. € 3.95 million - this is how much the most expensive piece of the Le Bles de Chanel collection was estimated. Many of Chanel's jewelery are created in independent ateliers with which the brand collaborates, but the most sophisticated and spectacular ones, those that are given the main place in the collection, can only be made by the house's own jewelers in the workshop on Place Vendome. The "Holiday" with a 25-carat yellow diamond was created there.
Chaumet
The Firmament apollinien necklace - perhaps not the most spectacular in the La Nature de Chaumet collection - let us remind you that many original transformers were presented in it. But the most expensive thing. The price of € 3.3 million is determined by the central Burmese cushion-cut sapphire weighing 34.36 carats. A deep blue stone paired with diamonds and moonstone. It took about 1 thousand hours of work to create the jewelry: each leaf of the laurel necklace is made according to an individual design.
Bulgari
The extravagant platinum Italian Extravaganza necklace from the grand collection The Magnificent Inspiration, Bulgari is worthy of its name. Its high price - € 4.1 million - is due to a huge velvet blue pillow-cut sapphire weighing 45.15 carats. The stone found in Sri Lanka has a GRS certificate (a Swiss expert laboratory specializes in the deposits and processing of stones exclusively from the "big three"). In addition to the royal sapphire, 12 emerald beads with a total weight of almost 40 carats are used in the jewelry.>
