A 'HAPPY AMORE' PENDANT NECKLACE, BY CHOPARDThe articulated heart-shaped pendant framed by brilliant-cut diamonds, containing a glazed compartment with a collet-set 'floating' diamond, suspending from a double belcher-link chain, mounted in 18K gold, signed Chopard & LUC, numbered, pendant length (including bale): 3.7cmAccompanied with its certificate of authenticityChopard’s Happy Diamonds collections are synonymous with playful fun. The dancing, sparkling design was first created in 1976 by Ronald Kurowski, a designer at Chopard who tried to capture the magic and light of water droplets glinting and gleaming in the light. To do this, he encased a group of loose diamonds between two sapphire crystals and contained the entire in a gold bevelled capsule, thus giving the appearance of loose shimmering diamonds against bare skin. When Karin Scheufele (co-owner at the time of Chopard and mother of the current Co-Presidents) saw the design, she is said to have exclaimed “These diamonds are happiest when they are free”, thus bestowing the iconic name.Although the design was originally created for timepieces, it wasn’t long before it earned its own jewellery line. Caroline Scheufele, Artistic Director and Co-President of Chopard, first used the Happy Diamonds in the tummy of a clown pendant which she designed for herself. The piece turned out to be such a success that she also produced an elephant, a ladybird, a teddy bear and eventually the heart, leading in 1985 to the launch of the Happy Diamonds jewellery line. This also marked the beginning of high jewellery by Chopard.Since then, Caroline Scheufele has continued to breathe new life and glamour into the world of high jewellery. A keen film enthusiast, in 2007 she negotiated a partnership with the Cannes International Festival, making Chopard the official sponsor of the event and giving the house the opportunity to create a new high jewellery collection each year to adorn the stars of the red carpet at Cannes. The partnership is now in its 21st year and Caroline remains at the helm, creating unique works of art for and inspired by the women who wear them.

A FINE PAIR OF DIAMOND PENDENT EARCLIPS, BY HARRY WINSTONEach surmount set with a cluster of pear and marquise-shaped diamonds, suspending a pear-shaped diamond drop weighing approximately 0.80ct, mounted in platinum, remaining diamonds approximately 4.00cts total, with maker's marks 'HW', numbered, with maker's case, length 2.7cmBorn to Ukrainian parents who had immigrated to New York, Harry Winston worked as a young boy in his father’s jewellery shop. He had a keen eye even then and apparently recognised a two-carat emerald in a pawn shop. He bought the stone for 25 cents and sold it on a couple of days later for $800! He began to build his business during the 1920s, eventually founding the House of Harry Winston in New York City in 1932. He acquired a number of prestigious collections, re-designing old fashioned pieces into more contemporary pieces which he then sold to wealthy society ladies who helped to promote his reputation. Known as “The King of Diamonds”, Winston was not only a clever business man with a good eye but also a very accomplished gemmologist. His early career was littered with the highly publicised purchase of important large uncut rough diamonds, namely the Jonker, a 726-carat uncut rough diamond which Winston had delivered via registered post and the Vargas, which he personally tracked down on a trip which took him first to Brazil and then to Antwerp. These stones were then cut down into wearable jewels by Winston and his designers.By the 1940s, they had come to pioneer the technique of clustering diamonds and gemstones in such a way that the individual stone could dictate the design of the piece. Unrestricted by the confines of the setting, the stones could be displayed at their most brilliant. Since then, this iconic Winston Cluster design has been maintained throughout the House’s history and appears even today in the present lot.Also known as “The Jeweller to the Stars”, Harry Winston set a trend in 1944 when he dressed Jennifer Jones with diamonds for the Oscars. She went on to win the Oscar for Best Actress in the movie “The Song of Bernadette”. His jewels also featured in the 1967 film “The Graduate” and in the more modern-day “How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days” (2003). Harry Winston died in 1978 and today the company is run by his son Ronald. The glittering image continues to sparkle however and red carpet appearances are plentiful with big names such as Madonna, Helen Mirren, Jessica Alba, Amal Clooney, Jennifer Lopez and Natalie Portman.
