A vertically placed platinum and diamond brooch in a stable upper design with lower hanging elements. The upper brooch consists of a diamond encrusted flower arrangement symmetrically placed on both sides of a vertical rounded oval encrusted with small round diamonds and a square diamond facing upward at the top, all surrounding a large round diamond with three leaves made from marquise cut diamonds atop. The bouquets and oval meet at the middle where a pattern of three baguettes placed vertically are streaming down from underneath the large round diamond in the center traveling through to the middle connected to a horizontally placed rectangle embellished with small baguettes, a square and a semicircle diamond at each end. A single horizontally placed baguette connects to the underside of the above followed by a semicircle diamond where a link attaches the stable aspect of the brooch with the hanging design. A vertically placed baguette with the arc segment from a diamond encrusted semicircle attaches to the setting where two horizontally placed baguettes are mounted, side by side. A succession of marquise diamonds horizontally placed are connected starting with three, to two and finally one where the brooch ends. This brooch could easily fit into the palm of your hand. The photograph captures the brooch in dramatic light where the brightest is reflected on the brooch then dissipates gradually into darkness against a gray ground with a dark cast shadow showing that the light was shining from above front.

Bracelet on a gray background with a white focus light on the center creating a vignette effect on the corners of the image. The bracelet is heavily ornamented with precious stones with a color scheme in ruby and brilliance from diamonds. Its fastening mechanism is similar to an open-box clasp - with a short platinum pin on one side and a diamond filled square part on the other. The bands are studded with ruby beads, arranged three, side by side, going straight in parallel lines. The spaces that the ruby beads create with the arrangement are filled with diamonds. This creates another two parallel lines of diamonds in between the rubies. As the bands reach the pendant, larger diamonds are positioned in large links. The center portion is a solid piece formed by an arrangement of diamonds in various shapes. The pendant is of a large emerald cut ruby.
