De Beers captures a lotus’ journey in the best way in knows how: through exquisite diamonds
De Beers Focus
Inspired by the serene beauty of its namesake, The Lotus by De Beers High Jewellery Collection captures the extraordinary life cycle of the beautiful and symbolic bloom in five exceptional sets, each conjuring a different phase of the lotus fascinating journey from a single shy bud in the water to full bloom as it emerges into the sunlight.
Named Awakening, Blooming, Flourishing, Radiating and Soothing, each tells a story through an extravagant mix of diamond cuts, including princess, pear, baguette, marquise, oval and round brilliants.
The pièce de résistance is no doubt the final set in the series, the Soothing Lotus. It uses a combination of rough and polished diamonds—a De Beers signature—in greens, pinks and yellows to evoke the dusky colours of sunlight-dappled water, or hundreds of lily pads decorating the surface of a pond. This unique presentation includes a 296-carat rough yellow diamond, a 117-carat rough brown diamond and a 58-carat rough white diamond.
