For Argyle and Muzo, the Third Time Is ‘Majestique’
The third collaborative collection featuring stones from the two famed mines features 10 one-of-a-kind pieces.
The “Victoria” earrings from “Majestique,” the third collection combining emeralds from the Muzo mine in Colombia with pink diamonds from the now-closed Argyle Diamond Mine in Australia.
New York—For the third time, gemstones from two of the world’s most well-known mines are being combined into a collection of one-of-a-kind pieces.
Earlier this week, Muzo Emerald Colombia and Argyle Pink Diamond revealed “The Green Jewel Majestique,” a collection of 10 pieces featuring no-oil emeralds from the Muzo mine and pink diamonds from the now-closed Argyle Diamond Mine in Western Australia, all set in 18-karat gold with colorless diamonds.
John Glajz, an Australian jeweler based in Singapore who is an Argyle Pink Diamonds Authorized Partner, has headed the concept, design, and creation of all three collections, which started with “The Green Jewel Collection” and was followed by the aptly named “The Green Jewel Collection Encore.”
Of the release of The Green Jewel Majestique, he said: “It has been my pleasure and privilege to be involved in the concept, design and creation of all three Green Jewel Collections.
“Two of nature’s rarities, the mesmerizing Muzo emeralds and the alluring Argyle pink diamonds, are once again brought together through the continuation of a unique collaboration.”
Majestique includes five rings, four, earrings, and one pendant. Featured at top of article are the “Victoria” earrings with 3.18-carat and 2.98-carat no-oil antique cushion-cut emeralds, more than 4.5 carats of pink diamonds, and 2.25 carats of white diamonds in 18-karat rose gold.
The collection is currently traveling the world and will be offered at private selling events.
See a few editor’s favorites in the slideshow below. All pieces are price upon request.
A 5.30-carat no-oil cushion-cut emerald is the focal point of the “Iris” ring, adorned with 2.25 carats of intense pink diamonds in 18-karat rose gold.
The simple and sweet “Azalea” earrings feature no-oil Muzo emeralds weighing 1.66 and 1.64 carats surrounded by 1.38 carats of intense pink diamonds in 18-karat rose gold.
The “Cattaleya” earrings are set with no-oil octagonal step-cut emeralds weighing 3.38 and 3.89 carats accented by 6.76 carats of white diamonds, 0.79 carats of pink diamonds, and 0.10 carats of blue diamonds in a platinum and 18-karat white gold setting.
No-oil octagonal step-cut emeralds weighing 1.5 and 1.25 carats are the centerpieces of the “Ivy” earrings, which also feature nearly 4 carats of white diamonds and 0.32 carats of pink diamonds, all in white gold.
