STYLE Edit: Why the Laurence Graff Signature collection is made for the modern woman who loves simplicity
Beloved by Elizabeth Taylor and Oprah Winfrey, the London jeweller’s Laurence Graff Signature collection offers stylish wedding bands, engagement rings, bangles, pendants and earrings crafted in rose gold, yellow gold and white gold
The indisputable king of the world’s most valuable diamonds, Laurence Graff started out as a diamond dealer in the 1960s and is best known for his exquisite jewellery pieces worn by the likes of the late Elizabeth Taylor, Oprah Winfrey and the Sultan of Brunei.
Over the last three decades, Graff has worked with a number of rare gems including the Graff Sweethearts, an antique canary-hued “Star of Bombay” from a maharaja’s collection and the famed Wittelsbach-Graff blue diamond, which were once part of the Austrian and Bavarian crown jewels.
The London-based jeweller is widely recognised for his unique stone settings and intricately crafted facets of the precious stones in his jewellery. The sleek and sharp geometric angles of the brilliant diamonds in different hues of gold creates an iconic silhouette for each piece of jewellery. The gem-settings are named after the most coveted stones acquired by Laurence Graff over many years, so you have the Paragon, Promise, Flame, Legacy, Star Flower and Constellation.
One of the most sought-after collections from the brand is the Laurence Graff Signature collection, which offers stylish wedding bands, engagement rings, bangles, pendants and earrings crafted in rose gold, yellow gold and white gold. The wedding bands can also be stacked with other designs to give every look a timeless and chic touch. The beauty of these bands lie in the minimalist design and also in the variety of stones – from the traditional round diamonds to the more contemporary marquise, pear-shape and heart shape, the Laurence Graff Signature collection is made for the modern woman who loves simplicity.
The creation of every diamond ring at Graff follows what the brand calls “stone-led craftsmanship”, meaning the piece is entirely crafted by hand without disturbing the actual shape of the diamond. From the enchanting diamond pieces to the sophisticated precious metal creations, the Laurence Graff Signature bridal pieces perfectly capture the essence of the maison.
