Colombian Emerald approximately 4.60 carats, and Diamonds approximately 16 carats

For more than four centuries, Mellerio has provided exceptional jewellery to some of history’s most powerful families. With patrons including Marie de Medici, Queen Marie Antoinette, Queen Isabella of Spain, and Empress Josephine, wife of Napoleon, Mellerio knew how to convey strength and beauty through bold design. Centering a vibrant Colombian emerald, the pendant frames the stone with chevrons and circles, geometric designs inspired by the hexagonal shape of the emerald. Worn as a sautoir with an elaborate diamond chain echoing the design of the pendant, the jewel is beautiful and impactful. The ingenious design allows the necklace to be taken apart and worn as three bracelets, or as a shorter necklace with or without the pendant, bringing unusual versatility to the magnificent jewel.

Kashmir sapphire 11.76 carats, Royal Blue

The cascade of diamonds in this platinum brooch-pendant evokes the mesmerising and tranquil feel of a waterfall. Designed by Mauboussin, who was one of the period’s most important Parisian jewellers and noted for this motif, as well as for bold, colorful, geometric designs. At the centre is a magnificent cabochon Kashmir sapphire of royal blue colour and embellished with a diamond fringe that adds a sense of movement to this iconic jewel.
