Epitomizing ‘the art of colour’, Fabergé’s Devotion Collection is the sum of brilliant coloured gemstones, artistic ingenuity and high craftsmanship. This ring uses vibrant emeralds with spectacular cut, clarity and character. Its contemporary design provides an insight into the continued creativity of the House of Fabergé, which originated in 1842 in Russia, and is synonymous with ornate Imperial eggs.

Graff_Emerald Earrings_2016

Graff Peacock Earrings
Inspired by one of nature’s most beautiful miracles, the peacock, Graff’s design team draws on the natural geometry of the bird’s feathers, with a focus on the ‘eyespot’ that features at its center. These magnificent earrings feature 31.63 carats Columbian emeralds and diamonds weighing 28.80 carats. Instead of a literal interpretation, Graff takes a contemporary approach to the peacock feather with a dramatic formation of diamonds, as though it is being viewed through a kaleidoscope.
