12 jewelery watches for 2017

Here are 12 jewelery watches that all would like to have on your wrist.
To know what time is it you don’t need a clock: smartphones and computers are always on hand to unveil the time with absolute precision. But a bracelet that, among other things, also marks the time, is something else. The jewelry-watch does not belong to the category of simple mechanisms that mark the seconds. They are an ornament, an accessory, a precious ring that encircles the wrist and do a shining. The most precious also are masterpieces of high jewelry, with elaborate scale of diamonds and precious stones, able to warm up the eyes (and wallet) who seeks them and the wearer. Often they have diamonds, with pavé in elaborate geometric patterns shape. Others prefer intricate decorations around the watch case, usually reduced to a minimum. But there are those who embarks on combinations of colored stones and even coral. Here, then, 12 watches which are mostly jewelery, to count the hours of a new year. Lavinia Andorno

Questa è la gioielleria più cara del mondo

[wzslider]Siete proprietari di un pozzo di petrolio? Avete vinto al superenalotto? Una schiera di Olgettine vi rimprovera di essere tirchio? La soluzione c’è: basta andare nella gioielleria più costosa del mondo a fare shopping. Già, ma qual è il negozio di preziosi più caro del mondo? La società amercana di ricerche di mercato Bundle lo ha stabilito con certezza: è Harry Winston, a New York, dove potrete spendere più che in  un qualsiasi  di altro rivenditore di gioielli negli Stati Uniti. Lo scontrino medio battuto da Harry Winston secondo Bundle, che ha esaminato migliaia di transazioni effettuate dai gioielleri tra il  luglio 2010 e il giugno 2011, è di 8,388 dollari (circa 6.500 euro). Harry Winston, d’altra parte, si trova sulla Fifth Avenue, che la più costosa strada commerciale del mondo. Gli altri gioiellieri nella lista, in confronto, sono molto più economici: da De Beers, a Manhattan, per esempio, i clienti spendono una media di 4.625 dollari, mentre nella boutique William Noble Rare, a Dallas,  lo scontrino viaggia sui 5.839 dollari. Dalla lista manca Tiffany, ma un motivo c’è: accanto a gioielli di pregio e costosi, la famosa maison newyorkese vende anche modesti oggetti da 150 dollari, che portano verso il basso la spesa media.

A Vie en Rose for Christie’s

A pink vivid diamond has realised 18.2 million, and earrings records at Christie’s auction in Geneva.
Christie’s celebrates this year the 250th anniversary. But the sale of Magnificent Jewels in Geneva must have made it feel younger: the pieces beaten totaled over $ 97 million. There was waiting for the top lot: the 9.14 carats diamond fancy vivid pink, pear cut. It has been appreciated: scored the second highest price for a pink diamond pear shaped sold at auction, with $ 18.2 million (16.8 million euro), approximately $ 2 million in carat. The buyer is an Asian private. There was also waiting for the birth of a historic brand like Boehmer et Bassenge haute joaillerie. The earrings Miroir de l’Amour got a new record price for an auction (17.6 million dollars, that is 16.3 million euro). The diamond necklace Le Jardin d’Isabelle, the third piece created by the Maison, was beaten to $ 8 million (7.4 million euro). Now the wait is moved to another pair of Boehmer et Bassenge earrings with diamonds of 11 carats each of which will be sold in Hong Kong on November 29.

Harry Winston squared

Harry Winston launches a collection named Harry Winston (with its logo).
The logo has now taken the place of the objects on which it is applied. Or, at least, this happens quite often: you buy a brand, rather than what is produced by the company. The jewelry is no exception and this explains the idea of ​​Harry Winston to call a collection HW Logo, bluntly. In short, you buy a jewel, of course, but the real value is added by those two letters that are the initials of Harry Winston. Of course the American Maison, famous for its diamonds, he thought of this line of jewelry not only to sell their own brand, but also to provide rings, necklaces and bracelets wearable and enjoyable. Prices ranging from 2300 to $ 20,000 for the bracelet with diamonds. Gold in the three classic colors and small diamond jewels dotting the area are in the way of tradition. In addition, as mentioned, there is the logo, which is transformed into a decorative element, as it offers the silhouette of an emerald cut stone, which was the favorite of Mr. Harry Wintson, the founder. But there is an innovation: it is the first time that the brand uses the rose gold. Everything changes, even traditions. Alessia Mongrando

Pippa Middleton, the ring’s trendsetter

No denying it: the gossip columns involving the British royal family don’t go out of style. They attracts attention also as regards the jewels. The latest news are about the wedding of Pippa Middleton, sister of Kate, Duchess of Cambridge and wife of the heir to the throne Williams. She was photographed with a large diamond ring, precious sign of engagement with James Matthews, a rich businessman. If Kate has received the ring with sapphire once belonged to Diana Spencer, mother of Williams, you can not say that Pippa ring is less important. According to the expert gemologist of the Daily Telegraph, the ring has a value of about 200,000 pounds, or about 240,000 euro. The engagement ring is not the classic solitaire. It is octagonal in shape and has been purchased by London jeweler Robinson Pelham, serving for years the Middleton family and provided the diamond earrings that the Duchess of Cambridge wore on her wedding day.
The advantage of the square shape
According to experts, the symmetrical proportions of the rings with square stones, which not coincidentally are called princess, have the advantage of appearing larger than with round shape. They also tend to get better value for money, because the square cut is easier for those who work the stones and you can waste less material. Alessia Mongrando

Il vantaggio della forma quadrata

Secondo gli esperti, le proporzioni simmetriche degli anelli con pietre quadrangolare, che non a caso si chiamano princess, hanno il vantaggio di apparire più grandi rispetto a quelli circolari. Tendono anche a ottenere un migliore rapporto qualità-prezzo, perché il taglio quadrato è più semplice per chi lavora le pietre e consente di sprecare meno materiale. Alessia Mongrando

Harry Winston, incredibles cluster

Harry Winston on a mission to Beijing and Shanghai to present the incredible new creations of the collection The Incredibles. The roadshow in China aimed at the enhancement of the cluster model, which is a hallmark of the Maison. The origin is surprising: Harry Winston one night in December 1940 was inspired by the way the fresh winter snow glistened on a lush holly wreath hanging on his door. Noting the way in which the size of the crown graceful and fluid curves were not modeled by the branches, but by the individual leaves, the jeweler began to imagine a new way for the compositions of his jewels, which would allow the diamonds to guide the design of the single pieces. The result are compositions of diamond pear cutting, marquise and round, so as to enhance light reflection light. A technique also used for The Incredibles, where you chase the cluster of diamonds, combined with emeralds, rubies and sapphires. The collection was founded by some of the 10 thousand held in the archives Winston. The jewels line was born in 2008, but was reintroduced in 2015, with new additions. Who appear to have satisfied even the Chinese. Giulia Netrese

Harry Winston on a lotus flower

The lotus flower has inspired many jewelers and now Harry Winston, who recently opened a boutique in Rome (https://gioiellis.com/harry-winston-un-americano-a-roma) offers a collection inspired by the petals of the corolla most beloved in the East. La Maison American, specializes in diamond jewelry, has brought together so many gems in small figures reminiscent of the flower.

Rahul Kadakia, the guru of the jewels

The numbers to eight digits achieved in jewelry auctions are no longer an exception: «A decade ago, you’d only hear these numbers in pictures sales; a Picasso sold for $10 million, a Van Gogh for $20 million», says Rahul Kadakia, international director of Christie’s jewelry department, in an interview with the American magazine Robb Report. The expert of the London-based company entered the orbit of the multinational luxury Kering, describes it as an moving and booming phenomenon . And the results of the auctions last year confirm this: the  Blue Belle of Asia sapphire, a 392 carat stone, was sold in Geneva for 17 million 500 thousand dollars, a record; the Belle Époque brooch by Cartier made 17 million 900 thousand US dollars. And, again, a ruby ​​necklace at auction in Hong Kong for 13 million dollars. Here the interview.

Harry Winston flashing

The thirties continue to fuel the inspiration of jewelry designers, as evidenced by the latest collection of Harry Winston. The American brand, nicknamed “king of diamonds”, has recently opened a boutique in Rome, Via Condotti. And this collection, adopting a style Art Deco revival, makes extensive use of the magical stone that pushes the women to fall in love. The geometry of necklaces, bracelets and earrings, cutting stones and their arrangement, the symmetry between straight lines and semicircles reflect the stylistic choice. All pieces in the collection are made with hand-cut diamonds, held together by a thin structure of platinum. Dazzling. Giulia Netrese

Secrets of Place Vendome

Place Vendôme, one of the mythical places of jewelry. And also a vantage point to understand trends, including those of marketing, for an object so sophisticated and privileged as the result of the combination of passion, manual skills and artistic sensibility. Place Vendome is the virtual capital of the jewelry, which is overlooked by the windows of jewelers sometimes with a tradition centennial as Boucheron, Van Cleef & Arpels, Piaget and Cartier. And the Paris square is the starting point of a long investigation that the French newspaper Les Echos, dedicated to the world of jewelry. To understand what is the future and what are the new sales techniques. The article is signed by Sandrine Merle.
Secrets of jewelers
Beyond the beauty of their creations, jewelers struggle to convince their customers: new experiences, and showcases with iconic choreography. It’s their recipe for seduction. Buy jewelry that cost thousands, even millions of euro is not an ordinary act. The first challenge of the jewelers is to make buying an extraordinary experience. “Customers want to know where, how and why their jewelry are designed and manufactured,” says Pierre Rainero, director for the style of Cartier. (…)
By Harry Winston, Cartier and Piaget a piece of jewelry is also the result of a long history. Nothing better than a visit to the heart of the archives, drawings, orders, antique jewelry to understand the inspirations of Mellerio. In the Chaumet museum there are a thousand and one echo the work of artistic director, Claire must-Rakoff. As the apartment of Mademoiselle Chanel’s at Rue Cambon, speaks for itself, with camellias, lions and the 5, the lucky number of the designer. “This place is open only in exceptional cases,” says the director of jewelry, Benjamin Comar, reminiscent of other occasions such as parades, exhibitions and launch of Chanel’s collections. And the Bulgari customers still remember the fabulous dinner at the Baths of Caracalla in Rome. (…)
The stones, which cost exorbitant prices are a real investment, do not keep the “stoniness” shadows. Who travels the world in search of gems, can share with customer the emotions derived from these natural treasures. Lucia Silvestri for Bulgari, Thierry Robert for Boucheron, can tell them what is a combination, namely an assortment of stones by size or color, or inclusion, a defect that can also give an indefinable charm gem. Van Cleef & Arpels has had the idea of ​​putting together all his experiences in his school, which opened in 2012. “We thought of a platform to extend our relationship with our customers,” says the president of the Maison, Nicolas Bos. There you can attend lessons of history or technique, taught by historians and experts. Customers thus become specialists who do not buy just a design or a sign of wealth. I am also aware of the work that goes into a piece of fine jewelry and will include the price. Then, they are more willing to wait a few months for the object of their mad desire.
Shines the eye
The experience may also take the form a priori more traditional and more open “to all new arrivals”: the shop windows. Today the cure is extreme. Now the windows look like small theatrical scenes in which we tell stories which can stir the imagination, surprise and encourage a stop in front of the glass. For Annie Beaumel, priestess of the showcase of Hermès (between 1927 and 1978), “should not be a display, but a work of imagination, whimsy, fantasy, colors.” “The difficulty lies in the disproportion between the size of the display case and jewelry,” says Soline d’Aboville of set designers preferred by jewelers. “The window shop is used to capture the attention from afar, while the jewel must be visible up close …”. The windows express more the story of a brand by introducing systematic recognition codes. The Red and the panther for Cartier. The lion, black and white, and the Chanel camellia. New York for Tiffany & Co. The environment of fashion for Dior.
Brand and symbols
For Louis Vuitton elements correspond to those that characterize the brand: the cloverleaf of fortune, the hot-air balloon or, more recently, the letter V. By Van Cleef & Arpels, are the Jules Verne tale: The voyages, the Skin Donkey, and ballet Les Bals de légende, in a firework of light, color and optical illusions. The look can not be separated by thousands of micro-details, from the texts with letters inspired by Gustave Doré. At Tiffany & Co., the windows are breathtaking. There are, for a couple of months, the jewels of the collection Gatsby Le Magnifique: they were presented on two hands holding each a glass of champagne, on a background of glass bubbles. Giant crystal chandeliers dominate the scene. These windows follow the tradition of Gene Moore, “the father of all the window dressers and visual merchandiser,” says Soline d’Aboville. Has built about 5 thousand for the American fashion house and was the first to introduce contemporary art. He finds himself in the windows shop the manual dexterity which is so dear to jewelers: are involved countless skills, as Christel Sadde, and furniture designer. He has created a set unusual and fascinating for Chaumet, with gold medals perforated. For its part, Mathilde Nivet works with paper, extremely popular material for jewelry. Fred, Mellerio, Bulgari, Chaumet: many have turned to the poetry of his work, to his ability to carve, bend, cut this material in feathers, flowers, castles.
The casket secret
Last secret, the attention to the packaging, which is part of the art of gift. It is at the center of a ceremony that serves to better savor the discovery. “It get euphoric, multiplies the mystery. It opens with pleasure and surprise,” say at Cartier. Which is recognizable at first sight. Famous for everyone, highlighted in red leather with decorative lace in gold, was part diu all advertising campaigns and all the windows. One packaging developed by the Maison Vuitton in 2001, when he started with the jewelry, it is equally recognizable: it takes the form of a canvas with the famous Monogram and is made in the laboratories of the house, in Asnieres.
A challenge, because the artisans capable of this work are now in danger. And the prices are astronomical: 2 thousand euro for the casket of a necklace, made of poplar wood and leather lining. For the designer Marie-Hélène de Taillac, it was still out of the question to move to the manufacture in Asia: “It is extremely important, their part in shaping the identity of the fashion house,” he says. His treasures are divided with skins of different colors and perfectly match the jewels and his shop: pink, green, purple, etc. All are designed to the last detail, with the favorite motifs shown on the edge. Inside, the color changes according to the one of the precious stones. Even the sound dull and sharp lid during its closure is designed …
In terms of creativity, anything is possible. Valerie Messika has designed a special environment for engagement rings. “The idea came to me when my husband gave me my ring, at night, on the beach,” he remembers, and describes the little black box that lights up when you open. Enough to give ideas to the great romantics. At Fred, a box has been specially designed for the ring Sugarloaf: different accommodations are possible for its removable stones. One of the most original ideas was, a few years ago, that of Solange Azagury-Partridge, then artistic director of Boucheron: a lined interior with dark mink, for fine jewelry. What better way to blend the brilliance of a jewel in the hundreds of thousands of dollars?
According to Julie Valade, director of the department of jewelry Artcurial, “in the case of a modern jewel, the packaging is a plus.” Especially if it is a jewel signed. The packaging of an old piece can also help determine the authenticity of the latter. For collectors, is a form of guarantee. “It can also be a source of many surprises …” said the jeweler Mellerio, which has just celebrated its 400th anniversary. In fact, the chests of the jewels of the nineteenth century often had secret doors that hid a pin, a pendant, a screwdriver or messages… intimate. Place Vendôme has not yet revealed all its secrets.

[wzslider]Riuscirà Sotheby’s a emulare i successi precedenti con la terza asta dei gioielli di Estée Lauder, che si terrà il 9 dicembre a New York? Tra il dicembre 2012 e febbraio 2013 la casa d’aste raggiunse 6,7 milioni di euro, grazie anche a un favoloso diamante giallo a forma di cuore da 2 milioni, acquistato dai Lauder dalla Duchessa di Windsor.

Certo, questa volta si tratta di 44 pezzi e non 112 come in passato, ma uno è ritenuto da molti, tra i più belli mai disegnati da Cartier. È il bracciale Tutti frutti del 1928. Nel lotto, però, si trovano altri magnifici esemplari di Harry Winston, Van Cleef & Arpels, David Webb, Buccellati, e del gioielliere di New York Oscar Heyman & Brothers. Il famoso bracciale di Cartier, stimato tra i 600 e i 780 mila euro, con rubini e smeraldi grezzi, di solito ha zaffiri: la loro assenza suggerisce che sia stato creato su misura. Poi, ci sono gli orecchini di Van Cleef con due grandi diamanti brown centrali di 7-8 carati, valutati tra i 80 e i 120 mila euro. E, ancora, stessa firma per gli orecchini in platino e diamanti taglio brillante con pendenti intercambiabili di rubini e zaffiri calibrè-cut. La stima? 160-230 mila euro. Il ricavato della vendita sarà devoluto alla Breast Cancer Research Foundation da istituita da Estée Lauder e presieduta e alla Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation, per volere del figlio Leonard, che ha incluso in anche dei gioielli appartenuti alla moglie Evelyn.

«La ricerca della bellezza è una forma di rispetto», sosteneva la fondatrice dell’omonimo impero cosmetico. Che ha sempre aspirato all’estetica in tutte le sue forme. Anche nei gioielli. Matilde de Bounvilles

Non a caso è stata battezzata Secret: scomparti segreti che rivelano colori inaspettati, acquamarine e zaffiri tra purissimi diamanti bianchi in orecchini pendenti e anelli bracciali come nella linea Secret Wonder. Oppure una miscellanea di diamanti con tagli diversi reinterpreta la collana indossabile in combinazioni diverse, con pietre che galleggiano delicatamente su polsi e colli per gli oggetti Secret Combination. È la tendenza del momento: l’alta gioielleria si modernizza grazie alle migliori tecniche orafe. E così in Secret Cluster cascate di diamanti taglio brillante, a pera e marquise trasformano i pezzi storici del gioielliere statunitense, un tempo soprannominato The King of Diamonds: il girocollo può diventare collana abbagliante, gli orecchini hanno dei pendenti staccabili e il bracciale nasconde uno smeraldo per ricordare il fondatore del brand che aveva l’abitudine di portare nelle tasche della giacca sempre qualche pietra preziosa. Ma il tocco di stravaganza e abilità artigianale è nella bottiglia di profumo racchiusa nei diamanti del girocollo. E non poteva essere diversamente: profumi e gioielli, il lusso per eccellenza.

Guerra dei diamanti al Met Gala

[wzslider]Si è svolta una gara di gioielli. Ma non a Basilea, Las Vegas e nemmeno a Vicenza: è quella che ha visto come campo di battaglia il Met Gala, evento che inaugura la mostra del Costume Institute al Metropolitan Museum di New York (il biglietto costava 25mila dollari), quest’anno dedicata al couturier americano Charles James. Il Met Gala è il momento in cui le grande firme del gioiello fanno a gare per far indossare alle star le proprie creazioni. Ecco che cosa si è visto quest’anno. Zoe Kravitz, con spacco astronomico, ha scelto i gioielli firmati H. Stern, più anelli a strati e bracciali di Anita Ko. Ma sul red carpet sono sfilate anche attrici e cantanti come come Sarah Jessica Parker, Beyoncé e Victoria Beckham, con Harry Winston, Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels e Jacobs & Co. Anna Kendrick e Blake Lively hanno invece scelto Lorraine Schwartz e Graff Diamonds. Harry Winston per Karolina Kurova, mentre Rihanna ha optato per una designer diplomata alle Belle Arti di Bologna: Dionea Orcini, unica nota italiana della serata. Matilde de Bounvilles
