Pair of Ruby and Diamond Earrings, 'carissa' Each Designed As a Cascade of Floral and Foliate Motifs, Set with Brilliant

Named to be remembered, the 'Carissa' ruby and diamond earrings unfold as a cascade of floral and foliate motifs, an abundant garden rendered in precious stones. Brilliant, circular, marquise and pear-shaped diamonds mingle with rubies throughout, blossoms and leaves tumbling one into the next so that the whole design seems to flower and fall as the wearer moves, alive with a living, growing grace. It is among the most romantic and expressive forms high jewellery can take, the kind of piece that draws admiration the instant it catches the light. The wealth of diamond cuts gives 'Carissa' its lifelike richness: brilliants for the dewy sparkle at each blossom's heart, circular stones for rounded petals, marquise for tapering leaves and pears for soft, liquid drops of light, each cut chosen to play its own part in the garden. The rubies thread warmth and colour through the foliage, their celebrated red glowing among the white diamonds like blooms caught in a silver garden, the most coveted of gem hues set against bright white. A cascading floral design of this complexity demands genuine artistry to keep it graceful and balanced, and the reward is a pair that moves with a living elegance, never stiff or static upon the ear. Earrings of this ambition are made for occasions that deserve to be remembered, and a named piece carries a particular distinction, the sort of jewel that becomes associated with the one who wears it and is handed onward with real affection and meaning. Floral motifs never fall from favour, ensuring 'Carissa' will read as beautifully to the next custodian as to the first, a design immune to the passing of fashion. Rubies of fine colour hold their worth with steadiness, lending the piece a quiet soundness beneath its romance. Every ruby and diamond has been assessed under our own exacting standard, and independent certification is available on request to confirm the quality of the stones and the integrity of the elaborate setting, so that the romance of the design rests on a foundation of genuine substance. Numbered on request, this pair stands among the most expressive of our high-jewellery earrings, a piece signed Legacy and held to the standard our name implies. We would be delighted to let you see the cascade move and flower in the light, where its full romance reveals itself bloom by bloom, and to offer the discreet guidance that helps so distinctive a creation be understood before it is owned. When you are ready, the Negotiation Room awaits a private and unhurried conversation, conducted with all the discretion such a jewel deserves.
