Over the course of millions of years, there arose structures within the emerald which reminded the designers of the spectacular dunescapes in Len\u00e7\u00f3is Maranhenses, the national park located in Northern Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shimmering blue-green lagoons meander through the gently undulating waves of sand. The rhythmic flowing structures appear to be dancing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sinuous elements set with brilliant-cut diamonds, which emulate the structures contained within the emerald and the dunes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The centrepiece of the necklace is a sparkling pear-shape emerald surrounded by a diamond entourage, above which the iconic G\u00fcbelin Jewellery ruby seems to float.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Experienced goldsmiths, gem-setters and polishers spent over 500 hours working on the elegant jewellery piece in the company\u2019s atelier in Lucerne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12606 lazyload\" width=\"508\" height=\"338\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-225x150.jpg 225w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-1350x900.jpg 1350w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4-144x96.jpg 144w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Making-of-4.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 508px) 100vw, 508px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The making of the necklace. \u00a9 G\u00fcbelin Jewellery<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Dancing Dunes is set with 75 Brazilian emeralds totalling 21.18 carats, along with brilliant-cut diamonds weighing a combined 6.98 carats. Sparkling emeralds in a sophisticated mix of cuts link the two rows of diamonds in the necklace. Each of the 460 individual gems have been set meticulously by hand. The cabochon-cut emeralds, step-cut emeralds and round, faceted emeralds chosen for this necklace are amazingly varied but share one thing in common: they have all been sourced from the same mine in Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Inspiration, ethics and aesthetics<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The striking necklace is a brilliant mix of inspiration, ethics and aesthetics. Thanks to the Emerald Paternity Test, it can be determined that the 4.11-carat emerald was mined at Belmont in Itabira, Minas Gerais. All of the diamonds and precious metals are from RJC-certified sources. A ruby, symbolising the deeply inspired philosophy, adorns every piece from G\u00fcbelin Jewellery. The one used in this necklace originated in Greenland and can be traced back to the RJC-certified mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-1024x524.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12607 lazyload\" width=\"518\" height=\"264\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-1024x524.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-768x393.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-1536x786.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-450x230.jpg 450w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-20x11.jpg 20w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-225x115.jpg 225w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-900x461.jpg 900w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-1350x691.jpg 1350w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail-188x96.jpg 188w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/G-belin-Jewellery_Dancing-Dunes_Emerald-Diamond-necklace_Detail.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 518px) 100vw, 518px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Close-up of the necklace. \u00a9 G\u00fcbelin Jewellery<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Raphael G\u00fcbelin, President of the House of G\u00fcbelin, states: \u201cDancing Dunes is a further milestone, bringing together all the activities and facets of our family-run company.
