Magnificent Jewels

The 5 December Magnificent Jewels auction in New York presents the most supreme examples of the world’s most sought after jewels and gemstones. The sale is headlined by spectacular diamonds in a variety of hues and shapes, including an exquisite 5.69 carat Fancy Vivid Blue Diamond and an extremely rare 110.92 carat round diamond -  the largest round diamond to be offered at auction. For those looking to add impressive colored stones to their collection, the Magnificent Jewels sale presents a variety of vibrant rubies, emeralds and sapphires, including an important collection of sapphire jewels by Harry Winston and Van Cleef & Arpels, from a Distinguished Family Collection.

This sale also presents the inaugural Icons series. Presenting a collection of the world’s most coveted jewelry designs from the last 100 years, this series offers a decadent Art Deco bracelet by Cartier for the vintage admirers, enamel bracelets by Schlumberger for those channeling their inner Jackie and a playful gem-encrusted brooch by JAR which is truly a wearable piece of art. Jewels by Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari, Harry Winston and Verdura round out this  remarkable lineup of iconic jewels.
