The British jeweller is showcasing exceptional precious stones and exquisite artistry, celebrating its heritage and craftsmanship

The illustrious family-owned high jewellery maison Graff marks 65 years of exceptional artistry and craftsmanship this year. Since its 1960 inception by its visionary founder Laurence Graff, the house has redefined the world of high jewellery by acquiring and transforming some of the most extraordinary diamonds on Earth. To honour this remarkable heritage, Graff is embarking on a global exhibition tour, which commences this month in Asia.

The maison’s storied history began in humble fashion with a 15-year-old Laurence Graff’s apprenticeship in London’s Hatton Garden. The teenager quickly made an impression through his innate ability to discern the hidden brilliance within rough stones. Such insight is a theme that would continue to resonate at Graff the maison, which over the past 65 years has not only discovered but also meticulously cut and polished some of history’s most famous diamonds.
