Boghossian’s Prince’s Building store marks its fifth year with breathtaking high jewellery creations
Boghossian—a name that’s synonymous with beautifully crafted high jewellery— blends east and west in a harmonious union. Established in various centres along the ancient Silk Road trade route in the late 1800s, and carrying forward a legacy of Swiss craftsmanship for six generations, the maison is a beautiful combination of two cultures.
The brand also disrupts the status quo by eschewing the codes of the past to create an innovative display of artistry and craftsmanship. Drawing upon generations of gemological expertise, the maison is able to elevate the beauty and rarity of gemstones through intricate designs. Maintaining a balance between eastern traditions and the contemporary codes of the west, it uses cutting-edge technology to create a spellbinding dance between tradition and modernity, where gemstones and design converge. It’s no wonder that Boghossian consistently achieves world record prices at auction, and many of its diamond-setting techniques are patented.
Boghossian’s Hong Kong store, situated in the Prince’s Building Landmark, celebrates its fifth anniversary this November. Visitors can marvel at a series of remarkable new high jewellery creations. Highlights include natural saltwater pearl and no-heat padparadscha earrings, which celebrate Mother Earth’s most precious treasures with two drop-shaped pearls of over 28 carats each. For coloured gemstones, the hero piece on any high jewellery enthusiast’s list is a paraiba and diamond necklace, built around a luminous, pear-shared paraiba of 46.05 carats from Mozambique—an incredible heirloom tourmaline that mimics a crystal-clear blue sky. Lovers of yellow diamonds will love the graceful “Toi & Moi” diamond ring, set with one white diamond and one fancy orangey yellow diamond in an ultra-rare marquise shape.
For those who are keen to make a bold, whimsical statement, Boghossian’s collection of exquisite floral bracelets, including a star ruby and jadeite bangle, are the perfect choice. The bangle features a star ruby of 70 carats mounted on a flower-like design, with petals carved from a single piece of bi-colour ruby. The results are remarkable—just like Boghossian itself.
