Dazzling Diamonds
Yellow diamonds originating from the prestigious Zimmi mine in Sierra Leone, West Africa, are highly sought-after for its exuberant hue, with an extremely rare tangerine tinge, resembling the bright colours of yellow jonquils in full bloom. In the current market, sizeable yellow diamonds of over five carats from Zimmi mine are exceedingly rare. This 6.70-Carat Natural Fancy Deep Yellow Diamond from Zimmi shines fiery gold glints with breathtaking weight, making it irresistible to connoisseurs the world over.

 

Also flaunting the brilliance of Zimmi diamonds is this pair of 3.03 and 3.01-Carat Natural Fancy Deep Yellow Diamond Earrings (illustrated below). These sparkling gems evoke the golden hues of the picturesque autumn season.

Only 1%-2% of gem-quality diamonds are classified as Type IIa, meaning that they are entirely devoid of nitrogen that endows them with a luminous translucence.

 

Weighing over 10 carats, this D Colour Internally Flawless Diamond is not only excellent in both colour and clarity, but is also clear like pure, flowing water in a cascading fountain, a quality further accentuated by the majestic emerald-cut. With such a refined quality, together with the fiery lustre of the diamond, the present lot is set to capture the hearts of anyone who lays eyes on the ring (illustrated below).

In addition to white and yellow diamonds, Tiancheng International has handpicked a variety of fancy colour diamonds in pink and light blue (illustrated below), including a 4.01-Carat Natural Fancy Light Pink Diamond Ring and a 1.60-Carat Natural Fancy Light Blue Internally Flawless Diamond Ring.

 

Brimming with an endearing charm, the former exudes an aura of romance with its simple yet elegant design; while the latter embodies a sophisticated grace thanks to the combination of light blue and white diamonds in a tasteful design.

Opulent Jadeite
Creating jadeite “double hoops” (illustrated below) not only entails high wastage but also imposes stringent demands on the quality of the jadeite boulder and preeminent craftsmanship. Therefore, every pair of jadeite “double hoop” earrings are the sublimation of Mother Nature and a tour de force of a seasoned artisan’s finesse in carving. With matching, interlocking hoops in a luxuriant green, the present lot is a masterpiece.

 

Emanating saturated emerald green and limpid translucency, this pendant (illustrated below) is an exceptional piece for collectors. The genial countenance of the goddess is brought to life with impeccable engraving skills. According to the Buddhist faith, the compassionate Guanyin is believed to redeem and deliver all mortals to the next life.

Coloured Gemstones
The distinctive hue of Paraiba tourmaline has seen it soar in desirability as one of the most coveted gemstones, and those from Brazil are particularly prized for their uniquely electrifying, neon quality.

 

As mines deplete, sizeable high-quality Paraiba tourmalines have become increasingly rare; and among them, those weighing 5 carats or more are especially scarce. This gem weighs an impressive 6.54 carats and possesses a striking lightning blue colour (illustrated below), granting the ring an allure that captivates collectors and admirers alike.

Totalling 46.48 carats, the 23 unheated sapphires in this magnificent necklace hail from the prestigious mines of Burma. These velvety blue sapphires will set hearts aflutter with the brilliance and glamour.

 

Complemented by incandescent white diamonds weighing 36.49 carats in total, this sumptuous necklace (illustrated below) promises to be a head-turning showstopper with its timeless beauty.

Famed for his signature style of “extravagant simplicity”, Hong Kong designer Barney Cheng is particularly skilled at employing an eclectic mix of materials and bold colour combinations, making his designs unforgettable.

 

This pair of earrings ((illustrated below) feature enchanting emeralds and sparkling diamonds of substantial sizes. Oscillating to the rhythm of the wearer’s movements, the scintillating strands of gemstones in the design are a true sight to behold.

Natural pearls (illustrated below) are not easy to come by as they are formed by layers of nacre covering an irritant in a pearl oyster over an extensive period of time. This stunning necklace comprises 510 round natural saltwater pearls that match in size, shape, and lustre ── an incredible feat in itself.

 

The pair of Art Deco clasps serves as the perfect complement to the necklace, contrasting the soft glowing shimmer of pearls with geometric lines, and endowing the piece with a sense of enduring grandeur.
