The
Inspiration
For the Wings of a Dragonfly necklace, our skilled Gübelin Jewellery designers let the Burmeseruby reveal the riches of its inner world. The depths of the gemstone hold a unique secret, the stone’s inclusions presenting a vast array of mesmerising, cell-like patterns. Elegantly arched, the fanned pattern evokes the imagery of the intricate and delicate structure of a dragonfly's wings.
The
Design
The astonishing patterns of inclusions found within its centre stone, a Burmese ruby, inspired the intricate design of the two magnificent wings, shaping the basis of this sublime masterpiece.
The
Craft
Unsurpassed skill and dedication go into the creation of each of the individual parts of the Wings of a Dragonfly. Each of the intricate white gold links is meticulously crafted to recreate the arched pattern of its inspiring inclusion.
The
Gem Setting
Our dedicated craftsmen carefully hand-set each of the 1733 brilliant-cut diamonds with utmost precision, a process which requires a unique set of artistry and diligence.
The
Dedication
The incorporation of over 1800 diamonds into this wondrous jewel and its completion took Gübelin's passionate craftsmen more than 900 hours. The unique cushion shape of the 10.64 ct ruby from Burma is carefully set in the centre, giving this highly unique piece a divine heart.
The
Masterpiece
Our master craftsmen imbued this treasure with a unique talent for change, allowing for four different ways to wear it: as a ruby necklace, a diamond necklace, a ruby pendant or a ruby brooch.
