FAQs About High Jewellery

What is high jewellery?

High jewellery, or “haute joaillerie,” represents the top tier of luxury jewellery, using rare gemstones and exceptional craftsmanship. Each piece is meticulously designed, often by master jewellers, and is made to showcase the highest quality of artistry. High jewellery often features unique, hand-cut stones and intricate designs that elevate it beyond traditional fine jewellery. These pieces are exclusive, often limited in number, and provide a level of luxury that attracts collectors and connoisseurs alike.

How is high jewellery different from fine jewellery?

While fine jewellery is made with precious metals and stones, high jewellery takes it a step further. High jewellery uses rarer gemstones, often sourced globally for their unique qualities, and involves detailed craftsmanship that may take hundreds of hours per piece. Each high jewellery item is usually one-of-a-kind or part of a limited collection, making it highly exclusive. Ernesto Buono’s high jewellery, for instance, blends luxury materials with exceptional artistry, offering clients pieces that stand apart as true masterpieces.

What types of gemstones are used in high jewellery?

High jewellery typically features the most exquisite gemstones available, including flawless diamonds, vivid emeralds, sapphires, and rubies. Each stone is carefully selected for its colour, clarity, cut, and carat, often following rigorous standards like those outlined by the GIA. These gems undergo hand-cutting and polishing to ensure they achieve maximum brilliance, setting them apart from stones in standard jewellery.

Can high jewellery be customised?

Yes, high jewellery is frequently customised to reflect the client’s personal style and preferences. Customisation can involve choosing specific gemstones, metals, or even design elements to create a piece that is entirely unique. At Ernesto Buono, we work closely with clients to ensure their high jewellery piece reflects their vision and personality, making each item as personal as it is luxurious. Customisation allows the creation of a piece that is truly irreplaceable.

How should I care for high jewellery?

High jewellery requires careful maintenance to preserve its brilliance and integrity. Store pieces separately in padded boxes to prevent scratches, and avoid exposing them to chemicals. Regular cleaning by a professional jeweller helps maintain the gemstones’ shine and the metal’s lustre. Ernesto Buono provides care services to help clients keep their high jewellery pieces in pristine condition, ensuring they retain their value and beauty over time.
