British jeweller House of Garrard is set to launch in Beijing.

The new 100sqm outlet opens this month in a prestigious location in centrally positioned landmark Emperor Group Centre skyscraper on Chang’An Street. It is the brand’s second boutique in China, featuring three private VIP rooms where prospective buyers can examine items away from prying eyes.

Garrard’s creative director Sara Prentice said: “It’s been a pleasure creating jewels for customers in China since we opened our Shanghai flagship last year. Now with a presence in Beijing, we’re in an even better position to explore how our heritage and craftsmanship can come to life for the sophisticated women who want to wear our designs.”

The heritage brand has been manufacturing bespoke jewellery since 1735. It was famously commissioned to design Princess Diana’s sapphire cluster engagement ring.

A rare 118.88 carat sapphire will be on show at the store’s launch event.
