By the '50s, New York jeweller Harry Winston had amassed such a reputation for gemstones that he was nicknamed the King of Diamonds. The jeweller and his house had also grown such an expertise and talent for acquiring, cutting and dealing in the most fabulous, exceptional stones that it began using the slogan Rare Jewels of the World.
But as much as Winston brought the world to his Manhattan clientele, so too was he a New Yorker through and through. The attachment that the brand, and its founder, had to the vibrant city are captured in a new range of high jewellery simply dubbed the New York Collection. An inspiration like the Big Apple could almost be trite, but the city is so much a part of the Harry Winston story that the collection's designs seem to have been created by someone who is overcome with homesickness. Here is a postcard-perfect look at New York's iconography and details through the eyes of one of its greatest jewellers.
