Espalier Diamond Necklace White Gold

The line falls and gathers weight toward the centre, which is where the design resolves.

794 diamonds run to 38.95 carats. None of them were bought to a size; each was selected for where it would sit.

794 settings, each cut and closed by hand. Work at that count is measured in weeks at the bench rather than days, and it is given to one setter so the tension stays even across the piece.

Nothing here is applied after the fact. The structure and the ornament were drawn at the same time, which is why the piece has no unresolved back.

Available for private viewing at our Mumbai flagship and Nation Towers, Abu Dhabi.
