Fans of Shaun Leane will be keen to know more about the Shaun Leane x Phillips private online sale. Making the best out of an idea conceived before lockdown, auction house Phillips took the idea online and is now presenting 21 pieces of exclusive jewels by the British jeweller that celebrate his 21 years of jewellery making.

Paul Redmayne, Head of Private Sales for jewellery in Hong Kong, explains: ‘the 21 jewels were all created for Phillips using designs both from his archive as well as new ones. Each is a one-off and not available anywhere else. This sale is Chapter 1 of our newly launched Flawless project that will offer exclusive, contemporary jewels by a range of creators to our audiences around the world.’
Designs include iconic designs such as the Cherry Blossom cuffs, Aurora rings or Hook earrings as well brand new designs.
You can already see 12 of the jewels on the Phillips website and a further five will be added in November. The final series of 21 will be completed in January. Signed copies of the deluxe limited edition of the Shaun Leane Book are also available to buy on the Phillips website.
Amethyst, rhodoilte and a pink tourmaline with a pavé of rubies and purple sapphires add rich colour to the Aurora ring, a signature design by Shaun Leane. The interlocking rings can be worn in a variety of ways.
The Cherry Blossom cuffs by Shaun Leane are inspired by Spring in Japan and are crafted in rose gold vermeil with enamel flowers set with diamonds and freshwater pearls. Like all the jewels in this private online sale dedicated to this British jeweller, the designs are unique and exclusive to Phillips.
Set with 328 diamonds, this cuff from Shaun Leane took more than three months to be crafted by the British jewellery designer's master goldsmiths.
