Reveal of The Legacy collection

Harry Winston unveiled The Legacy collection in Dubai with an exclusive tour and preview through the pieces.  A new collection pays tribute to his life as the ultimate diamond purveyor – a man who sought only the very finest stones to set them in what was to become his signature Harry Winston style. The Legacy, 22 pieces of white diamond jewellery is, at first glance, a collection of exceptional stones (all 22 centre diamonds are D colour, Internally Flawless or above).

Legacy by Harry Winston is an extraordinary high jewelry timepiece that celebrates the inherent beauty of the flawless Winston Legacy diamond. Continuing to uphold its legendary reign as the “King of Diamonds,” the House of Harry Winston acquired the Winston Legacy in 2013. The remarkable stone serves as the inspiration behind the Legacy timepiece’s magnificent pear-shaped dial.

Devoting more than three years to gathering the world’s finest gems and creating an unprecedented high jewellery collection may not be the modus operandi of most jewellery houses. But Harry Winston took a bold gamble with its latest Legacy collection, and the results speak for themselves.

As a tribute to the King of Diamonds, and his devotion to and insatiable passion for incredible gems, Harry Winston’s latest high jewellery collection is its first in three years. It is inspired by the 101.73-ct Winston Legacy diamond and the perfection it epitomises.

This magnificent 22-strong line-up comprises 11 necklaces, seven rings, and four pairs of earrings, each featuring a D-colour internally flawless diamond. More than 1,600 pear- and marquise-shaped diamonds also help boost the brilliance of the central stones, culminating in an impressive total of 836.68cts.

The Legacy collection cements Harry Winston’s reputation for timeless design and diamonds of rare beauty and inherent radiance. And the single spectacular stone that spawned this breathtaking range is set to become a new symbol of the brand.

“The acquisition of the Winston Legacy underscores the brand’s continued commitment to perfection and quality at the highest level,” said Harry Winston CEO Nayla Hayek in 2013. “A stone of this calibre and rarity is the perfect continuation of Mr Winston’s legacy as the King of Diamonds.”
