The 82nd Golden Globe Awards, held on January 5, 2025, kicked off this year’s awards season in spectacular fashion, with the Red Carpet shimmering in a mesmerizing array of diamond jewellery. Hollywood’s finest lit up the night in stunning pieces from renowned jewellers. With diamonds taking centre stage, the evening was a showcase of opulence, from bold statement necklaces, to breathtaking diamond earrings.
Zendaya’s 48ct Diamond Necklace by Bulgari
Zendaya stole the spotlight in a striking rust-orange gown, complemented by an exquisite array of jewellery. The centrepiece of her look was a necklace featuring 12 pear-shaped diamonds, 21 round diamonds, 72 step-cut diamonds, and a breathtaking 31-carat Paraíba tourmaline from Mozambique. The brilliance of the diamonds was undeniable, but it was the rare Paraíba tourmaline that truly stole the show.
Known for its vivid “Windex blue” colour, Paraíba tourmalines were first discovered in the late 1980s in the Brazilian state of Paraíba, quickly becoming coveted by designers. However, when the mines ran dry, the demand for these stunning stones led to their rarity. Fortunately, a slightly greener, but equally stunning, variety was discovered in Mozambique, where they continue to capture the attention of collectors and jewellery enthusiasts alike.
