Mauritius Necklace
The scalloped motif of the Mauritius necklace unfolds in sections of layered design. Pear-shaped blue sapphires are embraced by lighter pear-shaped sapphires, outlined by a crest of round brilliant-cut diamonds like waves washing along a beach. Deep blue waters give way to a turquoise lagoon, in the form of a cushion-cut electric blue paraiba tourmaline at the center. A 4.90 carat paraiba tourmaline drop finishes the piece with a shimmering sense of depth.

Mauritius Earrings
The earrings in the Mauritius suite are crafted to mirror the necklace's balanced composition. A Sri Lanka sapphire meets the Mozambique tourmaline, representing the varying shades of the Indian Ocean as it embraces the islands of Mauritius. A glittering rim of diamonds lends each earring the dazzling sparkle of sun on the surface of the sea.
To create the Mauritius Necklace and Earrings, sapphires and paraibas must be carefully sourced for their matching and contrasting colors. Only in this way can Winston artisans create the sculptural representation of water at two different depths: the profundity of the ocean, and the protected shallow of a lagoon.
