David Webb 1970 Turquoise and Diamond Brooch in 18k Gold

There are jewels you forget, and then there are those that leave a mark like this one.

At the center, an opulent turquoise cabochon cool, unbothered, ancient as sea glass—surrounded by concentric halos of white diamonds, 16.5 carats in total, graded F/VS1. Each diamond is deliberately placed, like punctuation in a private letter. Around them, navette-cut turquoise stones echo the rhythm of feathers or petals, depending on your mood.

The mounting is 18k yellow gold, sculptural and unapologetic, signed Webb as only David Webb could. This is not a brooch for everyone. It’s for the woman who wears turquoise like armor, diamonds like truth.
