Jahan is delighted to have designed and created a unique pair of diamond earrings exclusively for this special ‘Christie’s X HUG’ auction event. Named ‘Les Fleurs de l’Espoir’, these elegant earrings were handmade in Geneva by Jahan’s expert craftsmen. They feature 16 immaculate diamonds hand-picked by the Jahan family, including a rare matching pair of ‘Type IIa’ pear-shaped diamonds of exceptional purity: D colour, Internally Flawless and VVS1 clarity. Over 80 hours went into the design and crafting of these exquisite earrings, which feature a timeless, pure composition and lively modern elements. Discrete hooks allow you, the generous future owner, to suspend a matching pair of gemstones should you wish to add even more splendour to these magnificent jewels. The lot is accompanied by 12 reports from the Gemological Institute of America stating that the diamonds are D to F colour, Internally Flawless to VS1 clarity, plus two Diamond Classification reports describing the matching pair of pear shape diamonds as ‘Type IIa’ in nature: the most chemically pure type of diamond.
