Included are five signature Pink Tender diamonds collected over the past five years, set in two pink diamond flowers depicting the Hong Kong Camellia.
“The Argyle Empress is a celebration of two of the earth’s rarest treasures and is a perfect union between East and West. This heirloom piece of jewellery is the first of its kind for the growing Chinese market and will take its place in history as a coveted masterpiece,” said Josephine Johnson, Manager of Argyle Pink Diamonds.
The necklace is being showcased at events in Hong Kong before traveling to London to be featured in an Argyle pink diamond jewelry exhibition at Kensington Palace.
