Presenting a first for our site - something
from Bellarri's "Solstice" Collection, and it's hard
to imagine being introduced to a collection in a better way.
This bangle is made of solid 18K yellow
gold, and features 18.45 carats of....everything. In every possible
shape and cut, from trillions to emerald cuts to cabochons to
ovals and teardrops and Bellarri's own exclusive "Mystique"
cut. You'll find blue topaz in Sky Blue and London varieties,
citrine in gold and Madeira varieties, red garnet and rhodolite
garnet, peridot and green tourmaline, iolite and amethyst. Think
of a cut and shape, and it's here. And all of the gems you see
set around the perimeter of the round top setting are Mystique
Cuts.
In addition to the colored gemstones
the bracelet offers 25 points of F/G VS diamonds.
Take a look at the photos of the back
half of the bracelet - notice the little cutout shapes carved
out of gold, reminiscent of the shapes of the gemstone cuts.
Even where there's no gemstone, Bellarri finds a way to be creative
with the way the 18K gold is shaped.
Here are some important measurements:
internal width: 2.25" (wrist width)
internal height: 1.80" (wrist thickness)
internal circumference: 6.6" (wrist
size)
You can see that the bracelet has a curved
shape to it all the way around the setting, adding to the complexity
of the gold undercarriage detail.
We included photos in varying levels
of lighting, some to show off the particular cut of the gemstone
tables. Our extreme closeup shots do blur the diamond settings,
but that's so that we could show off the clarity of the cabochons
or the Mystique cuts of the baguettes set into the top round
setting.
Less than 5 of these were made, and we
have confirmed that this is the last one in Bellarri's vault
- we got the last one available, so if this is a design you've
been waiting for, don't expect to see another of these.
