Harry Winston Engagement Ring Cushion Cut Diamond 1.77-ct F/VS2 GIA Estate

Harry Winston’s jewelry style has always been about making diamonds the star of the show. Since founding his company in 1932, Winston took a unique approach by minimizing the amount of visible metal in his designs, letting diamonds appear as if they were floating. This technique, sometimes called “invisible setting,” allowed light to hit the stones from multiple angles, making them look even more brilliant. One particularly interesting fact about Harry Winston is that he was the first jeweler to lend diamonds to Hollywood celebrities for major events. In 1944, he loaned diamonds to Jennifer Jones for the Academy Awards. This move sparked a long standing red carpet tradition. Winston’s willingness to share his incredible gems with the public also extended beyond Hollywood. He famously donated the Hope Diamond to the Smithsonian in 1958, believing that extraordinary jewels should be appreciated by everyone. Today, Harry Winston remains one of the most sought after names in fine jewelry. The brand is known for its high quality diamonds and timeless designs. While Winston himself built his reputation on rare and important gemstones, the company has expanded to include more accessible pieces alongside its legendary high jewelry collections.
