A SAPPHIRE, DEMANTOID GARNET AND DIAMOND 'MORNING GLORY' BROOCH, BY GIMEL
Lot 1939 Renowned for its graceful yet exquisite works of art, Gimel was founded by Ms. Kaouru Kay Akihara. Her masterpieces may feature simple subjects of nature, but one can always notice the high level of craftsmanship involved. From a ubiquitous maple leaf to an omnipresent flower in full bloom, each is given the utmost attention to detail and treated as a one-of-a-kind artwork. Her sensitivity flourishes in the most subtle displays of gradating gemstones pav?-set intricately in jewels which clearly exhibit her dedication to her craft. Her signature though, some may argue, is her sense of humour; many pieces are adorned by a little gem-set bug hidden where only the beholder would be aware of. This is what makes Gimel one of the favorites among jewellery aficionados
