An inspiring

Event

On the 24th of October 2019, the House of Gübelin's new Aurora world with its jewellery line "Splendid Feather" as well as the new masterpiece "Rising Lotus" were unveiled and presented to invited guests in Zurich. Mr Raphael Gübelin himself led the friends of the House through the evening, relating stories about his travels to the beautiful island of Sri Lanka, his experiences there having been the driving force behind the creation of Aurora. Our esteemed guests were treated to an evening filled with the mysterious atmosphere of a sunrise over Sri Lanka and enjoyed the inspiring performance of various artists.

The friends of

Gübelin

Among our many esteemed guests were blogger Sindi Arifi and high jewellery expert Katerina Perez. They enjoyed the exclusive dinner and the colourful ambiance and were delighted by the many precious jewellery pieces on display. Taking the opportunity to try on these divine treasures themselves, the guests were deeply impressed by the craftsmanship and design of the whole Splendid Feather line and, of course, the masterpiece Rising Lotus.

The masterpiece

Unveiled

An intimate live performance by Prima Ballerina Yen Han was followed by the unveiling of the world's first masterpiece and marked the highlight of this special evening. The artist is one of Switzerland's most renowned female dancers, her international career having been a constant stream of outstanding performances in both classical and contemporary dance. The guests were delighted by the soft movements of the dance, which culminated in the opening of a sculptural lotus blossom in which the new masterpiece was revealed.   

The breathtaking

Masterpiece

The glamorous masterpiece is inspired by the fascinating inner world of a rare padparadscha sapphire. Skilled Gübelin designers interpreted these spectacular structures inside the gemstone as delicate drops of dew that sparkle on the leaf of a lotus flower in the morning. Discover the story behind this new masterpiece and enjoy a unique view inside one of the most precious gems in the world.
