Queen Amina - Yellow & White Diamond Necklace
Fancy Intense Yellow Diamond & White Diamond Necklace in Platinum
Queen Amina of Nigeria was an inspiring and formidable queen, honoured by Aurelia & Pierre in a necklace as striking as her story.
At the heart of this one-of-a-kind creation is a 3.0 ct cushion-cut fancy intense yellow diamond. This prized gemstone pays homage to Queen Amina, the best known of the legendary Hausa queens.
Rare for a woman of her time, she took a great interest in warfare. Over a thirty-four year reign, her military skill won her a reputation as a fearless warrior.
Set in warm 18K yellow gold, the diamond’s intense yellow colour and fire reflect her indomitable spirit and bravery.
The remarkable yellow diamond is surrounded by a halo of white marquise diamonds, suspended from a 16 inch necklace of white, pear-cut diamonds. Both the marquise and pear diamonds are fancy cuts, an elevated touch symbolising just how remarkable her reign was.
In F colour and VS clarity the beautiful diamonds make an incredible statement, set in platinum and totalling around 9.0 ct.
Queen Amina reigns still as a feminist icon. Her story inspires women to this day of the potential to shape their social and individual destinies.
Aurelia & Pierre is proud to shine a light on her legacy. This extraordinary yellow diamond necklace allows you to tell Queen Amina’s captivating story, while creating your own distinct impression.
