Behold the exquisite Ambrosi Contemporary Gemstone Demi-Parure Suite, a testament to Italian artistry and sophistication, meticulously created in Italy during the contemporary era, circa the 21st century. This suite is a harmonious fusion of two captivating components: a double-strand riviere necklace and a pair of matching drop earrings, all meticulously crafted in 18kt white gold. At the heart of this demi-parure suite lies a concise yet profoundly elegant design, featuring two repeating motifs that dance in lyrical harmony. The necklace showcases a mesmerizing interplay of 28 hand-carved turquoise fans and 28 oval cabochon emeralds, gracefully arranged across two adjoined concentric strands. Each motif is meticulously encircled with a delicate halo of pavé diamonds, boasting an impressive total weight of approximately 7.18 carats. The turquoise fans and emerald ovals, occasionally joined and articulated, offer a unique fluidity to the design, allowing light to play across the gemstones in the most captivating manner. The accompanying drop earrings, measuring 1.5 inches (3.81 cm) in length, mirror this configuration with two distinctive variations. A third mirror image fan below the central motif adds a symmetrical touch, while the widthwise oval is gracefully rotated 90 degrees, elongating the silhouette for a striking effect. These earrings are designed as clip-back, with the option to be converted to post earrings for pierced ears, offering both convenience and elegance. Ambrosi, a venerable Italian jewelry...

It was 1963 in Italy on the set of Cleopatra when Richard Burton famously said, “I introduced Liz to beer, she introduced me to Bulgari,” referring to the film’s iconic star, Elizabeth Taylor. It was even rumored that Ms. Taylor had requested the Italian jewelry house to wait around the set with their latest collection, so she could go shopping in between takes. Founded in 1884 in Rome, Bulgari is known for voluminous forms, signature sunny shades of yellow gold, and vibrantly colored gemstones composed in curvaceous patterns. In the 1920s, however, their high jewelry creations reflected the design of traditional French Maisons, incorporating platinum and diamonds with stylized Art Deco design. This suite, made in Italy during the Contemporary Era, is reminiscent of the geometry of Bulgari’s early style brought into the modern age, with juicy floral patterns featuring a bounty of emeralds - inviting abundance, love, and good fortune to the wearer. Flowers have long been a favorite with the jewelry house, beginning with its en tremblant brooches, created in the 1950s and 1960s as well as with the Fiorever collection today, which draws inspiration from the four-petal flower venerated by the Romans as a symbol of happiness. This exquisite diamond and emerald parure...
