Designers drew inspiration from the gemstone’s intricate patterns, likening them to a dragonfly taking flight at sunrise, and transformed this vision into a sculptural masterpiece.

Set with a blend of spinels, pink sapphires, rubies, and diamonds, the necklace exemplifies exquisite craftsmanship, taking over 700 hours to complete. Gübelin also employed Provenance Proof technology to ensure the authenticity and origin of the piece, reinforcing the brand's commitment to transparency and artistry.

The 'Tanzanian Sunrise' necklace features a cushion-shaped red spinel as its centrepiece, surrounded by marquise-shaped rose spinels, pink sapphires, and rubies, totalling over 50 carats. These gemstones are meticulously arranged in a colour gradient that mimics the hues of dawn, with organically curved red gold elements forming wing-like structures. Diamond baguettes, set in platinum, add an extra layer of brilliance, enhancing the play of light across the necklace. This intricate design draws inspiration from the natural beauty of the spinel, embodying the House of Gübelin’s mastery in haute joaillerie.

A key feature of the 'Tanzanian Sunrise' is the signature Gübelin ruby, placed prominently between the central spinel and diamond baguettes. This cabochon-cut ruby, a symbol of love and passion, reflects the brand’s Deeply Inspired philosophy, emphasizing the deeper meaning and connection behind every piece. The ruby not only adds another vibrant red hue but also serves as a hallmark of Gübelin’s craftsmanship and dedication to coloured gemstones.

To further elevate the necklace’s exclusivity, Gübelin utilized Provenance Proof’s blockchain technology to document the gemstone’s journey and verify its authenticity. This combination of digital tracing and physical markers ensures that the origins and craftsmanship behind the 'Tanzanian Sunrise' are indisputable, providing clients with complete confidence in the piece’s provenance.
