Contributed by Linda Yang High Jewelry

The high jewelry of Linda Yang showcases the world's most exceptional gemstones and metals, combining Western chic with Chinese elegance. An Otis College Parsons School of Design and Ecole Superieure de la Couture Parisienne graduate, Yang served her internship at Chanel under Karl Lagerfeld. Her Cloud Mansion Collection, "The Queen" features five amethysts (at 16.69 carats) and 41 white diamonds (at 0.35 carats) set in 18K white gold, forming a breathtaking floral crown design. "The Princess" is equally enchanting, with three purple sapphires (at 1.19 carats) and 13 white diamonds (at 0.13 carats) in 18K white gold. Inspired by the Cloud Mansion in China, Yang's ancestral home, both rings pay homage to the richness of East meeting West. "The Queen" takes inspiration from the geometric shapes of Western royalty and the headwear of Yang's ancestors. "The Princess" draws on the decorative details in the Cloud mansion's corridors and the natural stones surrounding its garden scape ponds. Both rings are genuinely fit for royalty.

4. DOMAINE LEROY NUITS SAINT GEORGES
Contributed by Sophie Yeh and Wood Chen

If you can read wine, every bottle tells a story, including this one. Lalou Bize-Leroy, a formidable wine expert from Burgundy, struggled to find inspiration after her husband's death, even with the year's harvest. To shake things up, she declassified her vineyard's top-level wines in 2004, resulting in a cult following for the 2004 Domaine Leroy Nuit Saint George. Described by wine aficionados as possessing an ethereal richness and beautiful complexity and boasting notes of raspberry, sour cherry shrub, soy sauce, morels, and thyme, this wine is a savory and elegant treat that will delight the discerning palate. Place your winning bid and craft your own wine story!
