The necklace is made of 951 brilliant-cut diamonds and 169 multi-colored sapphires of different shapes totalling 400 carats. It is among 11 one-of-a-kind jewellery pieces and seven limited-edition timepieces by Bvlgari sold at Christie's New York in December.

Piaget
Look closely at the central oval-cut tourmaline on this Limelight Paradise necklace by Piaget. Next, do the same with the Limelight Paradise ring’s cushion-cut aquamarine. In both cases, the transparency of the stones is amplified by the diamond setting. Both necklace and ring are in 18 carat white gold and were inspired by the natural world, specifically the lagoon.

Tiffany & Co.
Each heart-shaped diamond in this pair of earrings is internally flawless. They are surrounded by 76 round diamonds, set in platinum and weigh 10.03 carats.

Van Cleef & Arpels
Inspired by the French garden, the extraordinary Vicomte necklace features three rows of sapphire beads symbolising the flowing water of fountains, which are represented by two diamond motifs including two pear-shaped sapphires of more than 8.27 carats.
