Piece of the Week: Lorraine Schwartz’s Emerald Cuff
The massive emerald cuff and its matching partner adorned the wrists of actress Blake Lively at the Golden Globes.

New York--The awards were gold and the carpet was red, but at Sunday night’s Golden Globe Awards we were seeing green.
Blake Lively was the lucky actress who donned celebrity jewelry guru Lorraine Schwartz’s matching set of emerald cuffs, set in gold and accented with white diamonds.
Lively might not have been nominated (her husband, actor and Piaget spokesman Ryan Reynolds, was), but she was our pick for best jewel game of the night.
Each emerald weighs in at 150 carats, for a set total weight of 300 carats. Lively topped the look off with diamond earrings, also by Schwartz, and a sequin-embellished Versace dress.
In total, her jewels were worth more than $7 million.
