Described as a blend of the ‘iconic depth of Muzo Green with the delicate allure of Argyle Pink’, the latest collection – Elements – is the fifth in the series since the collaboration began in 2018.
There are 24 stunning pieces in this collection, designed and created by Singapore-based Australian jeweller John Glajz. Each piece features an emerald centrepiece, with the gemstones sourced from the Muzo emerald mine located in Boyacá, Colombia, and pink fancy colour diamonds from the Argyle Diamond Mine in Western Australia.
“Since its debut in 2018, the Green Jewel concept has become renowned as something unique and sought after in the world of high jewellery,” Glajz explained.
“It has been an honour to be given the trust to create it and the free rein in its development. I am extremely grateful to my own team for their painstaking efforts and unwavering support in the development of these collections.”
Among the highlights is the Helena Ring, featuring a 9.88-carat Muzo Emerald surrounded by 12 heart-shaped white diamonds and enhanced by 1.18-carats of Argyle pink diamond set in platinum and 12-carat gold.
Another eye-catching selection is the Sophia Ring, featuring an oval shape 6.69-carat emerald surrounded by a halo of fancy vivid pink diamonds set in 18-carat gold. Rio Tinto’s Patrick Coppens said each new release to the series was undoubtedly inspiring the next generation of jewellers to experiment with unique combinations.
“For almost a decade now, the creative collaboration between Argyle Pink Diamonds and Muzo Emeralds has inspired an incredible collection of jewelled treasures,” Coppens said.
“This unique alchemy, embodying the hauntingly beautiful East Kimberley region of Western Australia and the breathtaking beauty of Colombia, is creating a legacy of beauty with integrity for generations to come.”
The Hana Ring includes a 6.74-carat emerald with two half-moon white diamonds, set with pink and white diamonds in platinum and 18-carat gold.
Another show-stopper is the Virdidissima Ring, a trinity ring with three emerald-cut emeralds totalling 5.72 carats, outlined by 0.78 carats of pink diamonds and 1.06 carats of white diamonds, set in platinum and 18-carat gold. Muzo Emeralds’ Aricie de Sainte Preuve
This collection is yet another testament to the rare harmony between these two legendary sources, uniting nature’s most exquisite treasures in unprecedented fusion.
“By blending the iconic depth of Muzo Green with the delicate allure of Argyle Pink, this alliance not only redefines conventional gemstone combinations but also introduces a bold, modern vision to the world of high jewellery.”
