The House of Harry Winston introduces an enchanting new dial design that celebrates the brilliance and sparkle of the world’s finest diamonds. Like a pointillist painter, the gem-setter creates an intricate composition using only brilliant-cut stones, replacing colours with the sparkle of icy white gems. This enchanting canvas demonstrates the Harry Winston’s expertise in gem-setting and references the signature techniques used in the House’s fine jewellery creations: the near-invisible claw-setting on the chatons ensures that nothing distracts from the beauty of each diamond; diamonds are placed on the dial using a snow-setting, demonstrating the gem-setter’s skill and precision.
Harry Winston Avenue Classic Diamond Drops
Set with 29 brilliant-cut diamonds, the white gold case of the Avenue Classic Diamond Drops creates the ideal frame to showcase the intricate composition of the dial, like a window gazing out towards the sky. The textured base of the dial is shown in sophisticated shades of greys – the smoky hues creating the perfect contrast to showcase the brilliant sparkle of each individual stone. A snow-setting featuring 190 brilliant-cut gems gently cascades down the dial, awakening the composition with a sense of movement and emotion.
