Specialty Boucheron Hong Kong Store

November 27, 2012 10:28 am , Leave a Comment ,

While French jewelry company Boucheron has long been known as a place of luxury in Paris, the brand has taken its name as well as a new concept to Asia. This week, Boucheron launched a new concept for its boutiques at its Hong Kong location, which is located on Pedder Street in the city. Known for its jewelry, watches and perfumes, Boucheron is relaunching its brand starting with the interior design of its stores. The Hong Kong location is the first of its kind, and other stores across the globe are expected to have a similar redesign in the coming months.

Boucheron is owned by the PPR Group, and the company has made it known that it intends to expand its brand awareness throughout Asia. Currently, there are already individual shops located in Shanghai and also Beijing. The idea behind these flagship locations is that more people will begin to recognize the brand and everything it has to offer since there are entire stores dedicated to the Boucheron pieces. The company has found that these stores are more beneficial than simply selling their pieces in other retail locations — these flagship locations truly emphasize the brand’s luxury and place among the elite.

The jewelry company has come a long way since its beginnings in 1858. Going through many transformations throughout the last several decades, Boucheron maintains its commitment to providing people with regal jewelry that truly defines what it means to be beautiful. Beginning in 1994, the company took on a commitment to taking the world by storm and marketing the brand on a global scale. This continues to be a priority, and is well noted as the flagship store in Hong Kong is opened with a brand new design that will set the standard for future Boucheron boutiques to come.

Rio Tinto Prepares its Rare Fancy Colored Diamonds for Auction

September 8, 2012 12:00 pm , Leave a Comment ,

A rare opportunity has recently been announced that has diamond enthusiasts and investors in anticipation. Rio Tinto has announced the launch of its Argyle Pink Diamonds Tender 2012. This British-Australian mining company’s collection comprises one of the most valuable collections of rare diamonds in the world – and they’re about to go on sale. This is an increasingly rare chance to purchase some of the most precious diamonds in the world. Josephine Johnson, manager of Argyle Pink Diamonds, states that, “We are delighted to offer a highly sought after collection which are destined for investment portfolios or heirloom pieces of jewelry.”

What’s In the Collection?

This outstanding collection is composed of 56 pink diamonds, accompanied by two red and 19 blue diamonds. These rare diamonds are typically worth far more than standard white diamonds.

Rio Tinto’s rare collection contains a number of rare and highly sought after hero stones:

· 1.32-carat radiant cut Fancy Vivid Purplish Pink diamond

· 1.02-carat cushion cut Fancy Intense Purplish Pink diamond

· .33-carat heart shaped blue Argyle Allure

Rio Tinto began mining these rare and sought-after diamonds 27 years ago with the opening of the Argyle Diamond Mine. Rio Tinto since became one of the sole suppliers of pink diamonds, which have constantly been in demand from investors, collectors and connoisseurs. Rio Tinto produces 90% of the world’s pink diamond from its Western Australian mine. These diamonds have a broad range of colors and sizes and find homes all over the world.

According to Rio Tinto’s Chief Commercial Officer Jean-Mark Lieberherr, the excitement surrounding this year’s collection is warranted. Lieberherr states that, “Argyle pink diamonds are a diminishing natural treasure that are distinguished by their uniqueness, exceptional craftsmanship and their rich natural beauty.”

Viewings of this rare tender will be held in London, Hong Kong and Perth. The bidding process will close on October 15th, sending this breathtaking collection home with new owners.
