A Heritage in Bloom

By far, this necklace is the most valuable in the world and one of the most valuable pieces of jewelry ever made. Wallace Chan, a Chinese jeweler, created the magnificent item. A Heritage in Bloom has 600 pink diamonds, 72 jades, and a variety of other high-end materials in addition to the magnificent diamond centerpiece.

The design, which is inspired by Chinese culture and contains significant motifs including bats and butterflies, is set with an amazing 11,551 diamonds weighing a total of 383.40cts. Chow Tai Fook, a Hong Kong-based jewelry company, commissioned Chan to design the necklace after purchasing the famed Cullinan Heritage diamond in 2010. The 104-carat centerpiece is surrounded by jade and features 24 D-color internally flawless diamonds cut from the 507.55-carat raw stone. The stunning necklace took over 47,000 hours to make and can be worn in 27 different ways thanks to its modular design.
