The luxury house translates the artistry of bridal ateliers into the language of diamonds with the latest collection of engagement rings

It is with good reason that, during his lifetime, Harry Winston was known as the &ldquo;King of Diamonds&rdquo;. Film stars, royal dignitaries, heads of state, and business moguls alike flocked to his boutiques, drawn by his sui generis talent at dreaming up the most extraordinary pieces. Even today, his creative legacy lives on through his eponymous house and every piece of jewellery that bears his name. The latest worthy Winston wearable? Any of the objets d&rsquo;art in the Ultimate Bridal Couture collection, which truly justifies its appellation as the definitive standard in nuptial jewellery.

Translating the exquisite artistry of bridal ateliers into the language of precious stones, each of the four engagement rings in the collection draws inspiration from a particular design element involved in the creation of the finest wedding gowns. Evocative of the delicate open-weave of Chantilly lace, a 5-carat emerald-cut centre stone is complemented by tapered baguette stones, while a 3-carat brilliant-cut diamond, haloed by marquis- and pear-shaped stones, mimics the crystal studs that often embellish the bodice of a couture frock. A &ldquo;twin&rdquo; ring formed of two marquise diamonds mounted side-by-side pays tribute to the asymmetrical hemlines of more avant-garde dresses, and a cushion-cut 5- carat diamond reinterprets the traditional love knot motif with tessellated side stones.

As with all creations by the luxury house, only the highest quality gems are selected for the Ultimate Bridal Couture collection, featuring diamonds with clarity grades of flawless through to VS2, and with colour grades of D, E, and F. And consonant with the brand&rsquo;s philosophy that jewellery should be defined by the gemstones rather than their settings, the ring bands are made using the minimum amount of platinum possible, in order to maximise the fire and brilliance of the gemstones. Marilyn Monroe once sang that diamonds are a girl&rsquo;s best friend, and when it comes to Harry Winston, that is the truth. &nbsp;&nbsp;
