Harry Winston: Rare Jewels of the World

The House of Harry Winston presents its magnificent "Rare Jewels of the World" High Jewelry and Timepiece Exhibition in Shanghai, China. Open to the public from September 7 to 13, the new exhibition will present the House’s legendary stones, one-of-a-kind high jewels, archival treasures, and timepieces.

A Relationship Forged in the Forbidden City

In 1996, Harry Winston became the first jewelry house in the world to exhibit its masterpieces in the Forbidden City in Beijing. The exhibition showcased over 100 rare and finely crafted diamond jewels, including the Archduke Francois Joseph Diamond, an internally flawless 76.45 carat cushion-shaped diamond. Marking the House’s first time in China, the historic exhibition was only the beginning of a cultural exchange between Harry Winston and the people of China.


A connoisseur of diamonds from a very young age, Harry Winston was more than a jeweler-- he carried an innate knowledge of gemstones. He used his passions to become the King of Diamonds, assembling a collection of jewels in his lifetime that surpassed even royal houses.
