Three big stones that are all over 90 carats - a 127 carat sapphire carving of a panther, as well as a 114 carat kunzite, and a 91 carat tanzanite are featured in the sale. All designed as pendent necklaces, they are wonderful gemmological specimens of impressive size. The panther carving shows how the sculptor must have worked around the original rough hexagonal shape of the corundum crystal, mounted in an Art Deco inspired onyx and diamond necklace. The kunzite pendant necklace is also offered as a no-reserve lot.

Jewellery is one of the oldest and most universal art forms. From simple pieces such as stud earrings to an extravagant diamond necklace, every jewel is wearable sculpture, a mode of creative expression, each telling its own story through the interaction of precious materials and the human body. Through head ornaments, brooches, earrings, necklaces and rings, the adorned bodies can be transformed, accentuated or amplified in such a way that they may become living expressions of art.

Beauty, power, and divinity – the ideas which have influenced great artists throughout history have also guided the designers of magnificent jewels. In the 20th century, famous artists from the Bauhaus, Surrealist and Cubist movements began experimenting with their art in 3D. Thus, the idea of ‘wearable art’ was conceived, creating an outlet from the conventions of traditional jewellery allowing these artists to create unique designs, often with sculptural qualities. In this respect, the distance between sculpture and jewellery are not so far apart. The intention to give expression to the energy of nature – such as flowers, wildlife and the ocean – or to integrate the geometries and embellishments of architectural styles have been a key inspiration. With examples from the upcoming Magnificent Jewels: Part II ( 5 – 28 October, Hong Kong) auction, we look at some of history’s most important designers who created jewels as masterpieces of wearable art.
