This Écho Mystérieux ring and ear pendant set is a new creation from Van Cleef & Arpels’ 2022 “Legend of Diamonds” High Jewelry collection. It features three cushion-cut diamonds with a total weight exceeding 50 carats, all sourced from the “Lesotho Legend,” the fifth-largest gem-quality diamond rough ever discovered. A special highlight is the incorporation of the Maison’s signature Mystery Set™ technique, using sapphires and emeralds to accentuate the perfect brilliance of the diamonds.

The three diamonds weigh 25.06 carats, 12.65 carats, and 12.61 carats respectively, all achieving D color and Flawless clarity. They all originate from the massive 910-carat diamond rough named “Lesotho Legend”. This rough was cut into 67 diamonds of various shapes, with only three cut into the soft cushion shape, each featuring 57 facets to refract and present radiant brilliance and fire.

The Écho Mystérieux Ring features an asymmetrical design. A ribbon of Mystery Set™ emeralds and sapphires cradles the 25.06-carat cushion-cut diamond, creating a delicate, cameo-like contrast. The entire diamond appears to float above the finger.

The pair of Ear Pendants each feature a cushion-cut diamond as the centerpiece, weighing 12.65 carats and 12.61 carats respectively. These two diamonds are perfectly matched in cut, clarity, and size; achieving such a perfect pair required sacrificing a significantly larger portion of the original rough. The main stones are surrounded by interlaced emeralds and sapphires, forming a shield-like emblem. The ear studs can be detached and worn separately.
