Hôpitaux Universitaires de Genève
The Cause
Established in 1842, the HUG is the leading public hospital in Geneva. The HUG employs over 11,000 heroes who serve the local community and thousands of visitors seeking its world-renowned medical expertise and first-rate facilities.
This year, HUG provided vital support at the centre of Geneva’s struggle against COVID- 19. Through its private foundation, it has also contributed towards the global fight against COVID-19.
Les Fleurs de l’Espoir
Our Project
To support the HUG and the worldwide battle against the pandemic, we created a unique masterpiece that we named “Les Fleurs de l’Espoir. The name translates to “The Flowers of Hope” in honour of our compassionate heroes in the medical profession.
The proceeds from the sale, arranged by Christie’s Jewels during their ‘Magnificent Jewels’ auction on November 11th, will be donated to the HUG’s private foundation.

Supreme Craftsmanship
Our Design
Over 80 hours went into the design, diamond selection and crafting of these exquisite earrings, which feature a timeless, pure composition with lively modern elements.
Handmade in Geneva by our expert craftsmen, every aspect of our wonderful creation was designed to enable the diamonds to shine through with all their brilliance. Their elegance and lightness make these earrings the perfect piece to wear during your most illustrious and important events.
Discrete hooks allow you, the generous future owner, to suspend a matching pair of gemstones should you wish to add even more splendour to these magnificent jewels.
