Graff Exhibition Tour Celebrates 65 Years
August 26, 25
(IDEX Online) - Graff, the iconic British jeweler, is celebrating its 65th anniversary with a global exhibition tour, which includes the legendary Graff Infinity Tiara.
Laurence Graff founded the company in 1960 and went on to transform some of the world's most remarkable diamonds.
Graff now operates over 70 stores globally, with major boutiques in London, Paris, Monaco, New York, Geneva, Hong Kong, and Tokyo.
Laurence Graff remains chairman, aged 87, although his son Francois now serves as CEO.
The anniversary tour has as its highlight the Graff Infinity Tiara, featuring a 157.80-carat D color, VVS1-clarity heart-shaped Infinity Diamond, cut from a 373-carat rough recovered in Botswana. The tiara has 18 smaller heart-shaped diamonds suspended from loops.
The exhibition also includes the stories of the Graff Constellation and Graff Venus, Star of Bombay, Lesotho Promise, Graff Pink, and other diamonds handled by Graff over six and a half decades.
And it features rare yellow diamonds in sculptural gold designs and other high jewelry pieces.
The tour opens in Shanghai from 13 to 21 September, then transfers to Singapore and Hong Kong.
