  • Renowned for His Iconic Designs and Breathtaking Gem Collections, Harry Winston Was a Man Who Knew the True Value of a Diamond
    A BRILLIANT LEGACY Renowned for his iconic designs and breathtaking gem collections, Harry Winston was a man who knew the true value of a diamond. BY ALLISON HATA 54 A diamond is anything but just another stone. Highly coveted, precious and exceedingly rare, diamonds can take on different meanings: a symbol of status, a statement of love or a sign of purity. “Diamonds are a physical connection to [the earth] other than our feet on the ground,” says Russell Shor, a senior industry analyst for the Gemologist Institute of America. “When the earth was young and there was volcanic mass seething inside—this is how diamonds were formed. Diamonds connect us to that.” One man understood this intrinsic connection and dedicated his life to bringing the world closer to the precious gem through his jewelry designs and generous gifts to national institu- tions. Known as the “king of dia- monds,” the late Harry Winston was the first American jeweler to own and cut some of the most iconic stones in history, in addi- tion to setting a new standard for jewelry that showcases a gem’s natural beauty. Born more than a century ago, the young Winston—the son of a small jewelry shop owner—demonstrated a natural instinct for examining diamonds and precious gems. In subsequent years, he cultivated this talent to become one of the most prominent diamond merchants and designers of his time. His legacy lives on through the house of Harry Winston, which pairs his classic vision with a contemporary sensi- bility to create modern pieces that still grace the red carpet today.

A little information about topics such as formation, sources, mining, or cutting can often help, too. In every pre- sentation, however, it’s essential to identify and reinforce the factors that make diamonds valuable and important – in other words, truly precious – to each customer. After all, purchase decisions involve the head, but the desire to own or give a diamond almost always springs from the heart. That’s the realm of magic and romance. The emotional meanings of diamonds have many origins and they have evolved over thou- sands of years. Diamond’s unique beauty and remarkable properties have helped create some of the deepest meanings.

  • Record Setters Rarity, Provenance and Authenticity, Along with Global Economic Conditions, Are Driving Record Prices at Auction
    Record Setters Rarity, provenance and authenticity, along with global economic conditions, are driving record prices at auction. BY Ettagale Blauer February 2012 It seems record-breaking prices have become the norm at every major jewelry auction, but a look back shows that the highest prices paid for certain gems and jewels were set more than 20 years ago. That these records have held up is all the more remarkable considering the tremendous increase in appreciation for rare and fine, unique gems and jewels in recent years. The potential audience for these treasures is dramatically more global than it was barely a quarter-century ago. This is partly due to the sophisticated and aggressive marketing by the top auction houses, but also to the new wealth being amassed in parts of the world that were not even on the radar until recently. Stir in a limited number of available pieces and records are bound to be set. While rarity, provenance and authenticity are the usual hallmarks behind record-setting results, economic conditions can play just as big a role.
