Gleaming Ruby Diamond Necklace Yellow Gold

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

234 diamonds, sorted and matched before a single one was set. 36 rubies carry the colour, and the two are matched to one another before anything is set, which takes far longer than matching for size alone.

270 stones, seated one at a time. The spacing is what takes the hours, not the setting itself.

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.
