Continuing its collaboration with Gemfields, the world’s oldest diamond company Backes & Strauss has created the unique Piccadilly Princess Royal Emerald Green watch – and it’s a truly timeless masterpiece.
The Piccadilly Princess Royal Emerald Green watch is the third in a series of five unique watches, following the release of the Piccadilly Princess Royal Colours in 2014 and the Piccadilly Princess Royal Blue in 2015. The series commemorates the 225th anniversary of Backes & Strauss.
Backes & Strauss' creations are inspired by London’s Regency Era, when architect John Nash led initiatives commissioned by the Prince Regent to liven and recreate the city’s landscape. Architecture, art and culture flourished in this period, particularly the growth in the city's commitment to nature and the environment. The vibrant green emeralds on the Piccadilly Princess Royal Emerald Green timepiece reflect London's devotion to its natural landmarks and lush green parks, celebrated and cherished from the Regency Era to today.
This natural green vision displays 245 Zambian emeralds with 10 different cuts for a total of 31.91 carats. The responsibly sourced gems, combined with Backes & Strauss' carefully engineered design, create a brilliant piece found nowhere else in the world. The exquisite quality of these vivid emeralds is attributed to the delicate and sustainable unearthing methods used in Gemfields' Kagem Mines in Zambia.
Backes & Strauss has constantly looked forward, pioneering new diamond cutting techniques and enthralling connoisseurs with its compelling designs. The Piccadilly Princess Royal Emerald Green timepiece is an intricate, veritable masterpiece, both inside and out.
