Sometimes a piece of jewellery tells more than just the story of its material - it tells of places, encounters and the splendor of an era. Such is the case with this modern white gold bracelet from around 1985, made by jeweler H. Stern, the leading jeweller in South America, whose name has long been synonymous with excellent gemstones and avant-garde design. At the center of the design shines an intense green tourmaline in a precise emerald cut - a gemstone that, like the bracelet itself, comes from Brazil. The country is considered a veritable treasure trove of tourmalines: Ever since the 16th century, when Portuguese traders found the first green crystals in the mountains of Minas Gerais, stories have been told about their special variety of colours. No other gemstone is as changeable as tourmaline, which is found in Brazil in all the colours of the rainbow. The green varieties in particular have become a symbol of freshness, vitality and tropical abundance - as if the stone carried a piece of the lush rainforest within it. Four sparkling diamonds accompany the tourmaline on its wide frame. They are arranged across the axis of the tourmaline and across the graduated bracelet, emphasizing the center of the design. A narrow white gold band makes the gem-set centerpiece wearable. According to its first owner, the piece of jewellery was purchased in Rio de Janeiro. Anyone who chose a piece of jewellery from H. Stern in Rio not only took a piece of exquisite craftsmanship with them, but also a part of this incomparable atmosphere: the warmth of the sun, the green of the tropics and the glamour of a cosmopolitan city by the sea. So this bracelet is more than just a piece of jewellery - it is a reminder of a special place and of the magic of Brazilian gemstones.
