A Pink Diamond Shines for a $46 Million World Auction Record in Geneva

This is…impressive..

FROM www.artinfo.com

GENEVA— A ring that graced the block at Sotheby’s Geneva earlier this week has shattered the record for any jewel sold at auction, twinkling past its presale estimate of $27-38 million to fetch a flashy $46 million. The gem was snatched up by London jewelry dealer Laurence Graff, who offered his closing bid over the phone with Sotheby’s Asia chairman Patti Wong bidding on his behalf. Put up for sale by a private collector, the ring features a dazzling 24.78-carat emerald-cut diamond of a “fancy intense pink” hue, which is the actual classification given its color by theGemological Institute of America. The auction raised a total of $105 million, exceeding presale expectations of $67-97 million.

When bidding on the stunning lot closed, Sotheby’s international jewelry department chairman Dave Bennett immediately announced the world record to an eruption of applause, Sky News reports. Of the gem, last seen on the market 60 years ago when it was purchased from famed jeweler Harry Winston, Graff states: “It is the most fabulous diamond I’ve seen in the history my career.” And Bennett agrees. “It was simply one of the most desirably diamonds I have seen during my 35-year career at Sotheby’s,” the Sotheby’s chairman said in the auction house’s statement.

The diamond — an exceedingly rare specimen, as there is a noted scarcity of pink diamonds of more than 20 carats — has been proudly named the “Graff Pink” by its new owner. In paying the astronomical sum, Graff broke his own previous record for a gem at auction, which he set in December 2008 when he paid $24 million for the 35.56-carat grayish-blue “Wittelsbach Diamond” at Christie’s London.

THINGS WE LOVE, INDULGE MAGAZINE KATRINA KELLY’S 18k GOLD 7 LAYERS OF LOVE RINGS

For Texas native Katrina Kelly, true love has 7 elements: luck, light, laughter, lover, loyalty, love and life. Kelly has captured the essence of each in a set of 18k gold bands, each with its own meaning and design. "Luck" for example represents the role chance plays in meeting that special someone; "loyalty" involves devotion and trust; and "laughter" is the ingredient essential to every relationship. The rings can be purchased as a set of seven ($7,900), a set of three ($2,640) or individually ($780-$1500). But they're not just for lovers. They are also thoughtful gifts for friends, and we love how the entire set looks hanging from Katrina Kelly's KK Gala Gold necklace. Buy online at www.katrinakellyjewelry.com or at the Fort Worth, Texas Neiman Marcus location. From Indulge Magazine-Jenny B. Davis, Editor

Seven Layers of Love Rings TM 

Katrina Kelly aspired to create and capture an all encompassing design that defines an alluring, auspicious and sentimental statement that perpetuates profundity while embracing beauty aesthetically, spiritually and poetically. Alas. . .

“I believe that to be lucky in love, all 7 layers, is unworldly. If you are so fortunate to have it, then your heart should be paraded around your fingers for all to see and admire. You cannot help but to feel infinitely treasured and loved with these symbolic gestures of love.” Katrina Kelly

The 7 Layers of Love ™ rings consists of a septet of jeweled bands that can be worn individually or layered atop one another; each ring symbolizes a unique aspect of love’s romantic sentiment.

Luck

(since chance often plays a role in finding that special someone)

Light

(because love creates a feeling of enlightenment and delight)

Laughter

(what relationship can survive without some humor?)

Lover

(intimacy and passion ignites romantic love, and becoming one is sacred )

Loyalty

About Europa Star’s International Jewellery TRENDS & COLOURS:

French couturier, Christophe Guillarmé, explains, “jewellery is clearly an obvious extension of an outfit and I use it on the catwalk to add fun and glamour to my creations. In some cases, we use extravagant and fancy jewellery to give a strong eye-catching look.” And the look is what it is all about. For the Spring/Summer 2010 collections, global runways were full of statement-making necklaces, stackable bangles, wide cuffs, and dangling hoops. But this is only part of the jewellery story for 2010. For a broader perspective of this year’s design directions, Trends & Colours presents the top twelve trends that consumers will be looking for this year. And, since colour is one of the main trends, we also include the opinions of several fashion designers on the use of colour in their 2010 collections. Some of the 2010 jewellery trends are not really that new. Rather, they continue to evolve with different colours or changes in texture, form, or styling. Others are more recent, since trends, by definition, are influenced by economic, social, and cultural factors. The openwork design direction, for example, is the result of the current economic malaise and the record-breaking prices of gold and platinum. The organic and eco-jewellery trends arise from changes in social and cultural attitudes.

A trend of a different sort is the growing importance, and even necessity, for jewellers to have an Internet presence as a part of a balanced marketing program. The online consulting firm IC Agency, partner of Europa Star, examines the importance of social marketing for a selection of global luxury jewellery brands with lessons that can be applied to all businesses. In our Industry Focus, we travelled to Spain to visit the unique and remarkable Parque Joyero de Córdoba and its state-of-the art jewellery school, whose students will undoubtedly be part of the trendsetters of the future. From all of the team here at International Jewellery/Couture, we extend our best wishes for a happy and profitable 2010.

Katrina Kelly's 7 Layers of Love Rings Unveiling at Couture

I have just unveiled my new LOVE rings. My 7 Layers of Love Rings.
Yes, Trademarked by the way, both 7 and Seven. TM

Sentimental Seven, Auspicious, Timeless and Enduring
mix and match all these lovely rings to your fancy

Much LOVE to this fabulous blog.

to
create and capture
an all encompassing design that defines
an alluring, auspicious and
sentimental statement
which perpetuates profundity
while embracing beauty
aesthetically, spiritually
and
poetically. 
AND I did not want to unveil it until I had my trademark...Finally...

Fine jewelry designer Katrina Kelly has clearly been pondering the profundity of infatuation and the necessary elements for long-lasting love. Forget there being seven deadly sins —if we look at enough religious, mythical and mystical texts, we'll find attributes like wisdom, mental acuity, luck, artistry, and intuition associated with this digit. In fact, many ancient civilizations have interpreted the number as sacred or magical. It follows, then, that someone would use the number seven to examine a subject as complex and truly divine as love.

Katrina Kelly's new "7 Layers of Love" rings consists of a septet of jeweled bands that can be worn individually or stacked atop one another, with each piece symbolizing a different aspect of this romantic sentiment: Luck (since chance often plays a role in finding that special someone), Light (since love can make you feel enlightened and joyous), Laughter (what relationship can survive without some humor?), Lover (passion informs romantic love, after all), Loyalty (trust cannot exist without it), Love (an emotion that can't be scientifically explained), and Life (since true love lasts a lifetime).

I'll say "hello, lover" to these rings any day! By: Celia from sicka than average

Clean your Jewelry and Diamonds Using Vodka

Here is an interesting method for cleaning your jewelry. I myself have yet to try this, I use an ultrasonic cleaner. However, I am in the mood for a Vodka Cranberry Elixir so I might test this. Now, I do not advocate it yet, hence clean at your own risk!

Things You'll Need: Diamond or other jewelry, jewelry brush, small bowl, vodka, jewelry cloth or t shirt

POUR a small amount of vodka into a small dish or bowl. Pour enough so that the jewelry will be completely covered when it is submerged.

PLACE your desired jewelry into the vodka and let it soak for 30-45 seconds. It really does not need to soak very long in order to get it to sparkle.

USE a jewelery brush or any soft bristled brush to remove any build up in the jewelry's setting. Gently work in the areas and underneath the stone. If you do not have one, you can skip this step.

RINSE off jewelry with warm water to remove vodka cleaning agent. Be sure to handle the item with care. Have the water on a gentle stream so that way you lower the risk of dropping it.

DRY jewelry off gently with soft cloth or even a t-shirt.
