As spring awakens with vibrant colors, Phillips’ Hong Kong Jewels Auction on March 28th offers a dazzling array of precious stones to match the season’s vibrancy. From fancy colored diamonds to Burmese rubies and Colombian emeralds, the sale presents a captivating selection for jewelry enthusiasts and collectors.
Taking center stage is a stunning 15.51-carat fancy vivid yellow diamond ring, showcasing the coveted round brilliant-cut, rarely seen in colored diamonds due to its high material waste. This exceptional piece carries a high estimate of $1.25 million.
For those drawn to the fiery allure of rubies, a 4.01-carat Burmese unheated ruby and diamond ring stands out. Burmese rubies are highly prized, and their increasing scarcity, especially in larger sizes, makes this piece a true treasure with a high estimate of $180,000.
Emerald enthusiasts will be captivated by the mesmerizing green hues of Colombian emeralds. A pair of Harry Winston Colombian emerald and diamond earrings, estimated at $180,000, and a 37.08-carat Colombian emerald and diamond ring, estimated at $130,000, are among the highlights.
Beyond the dazzling array of colored gemstones, the auction also features a curated collection of vintage signed pieces from renowned brands like Van Cleef & Arpels and Cartier. A turquoise and diamond necklace by Van Cleef & Arpels, estimated at $150,000, and an Art Deco Burmese unheated ruby and diamond bracelet by Cartier, estimated at $52,000, are sure to attract discerning collectors.
