Twice a year the world’s most elite jewelry houses unveil collections of one-of-a-kind baubles—necklaces, bracelets, headpieces, and some never-before-seen wearables—that showcase sensational gemstones and expert craftsmanship. This year, Harry Winston took inspiration from eight of the most pleasurable destinations on the planet—from Fiji to Santorini to the Grand Canyon—to make its Majestic Escapes jewelry suites. The Amalfi necklace (price on request) uses turquoise and Paraíba tourmaline to represent shimmering waves, while 48 rubellites, including eight octagonal step-cut stones, evoke fragrant bougainvillea.
