The Most Beautiful Woman in the Universe ‘Dazzled’ New York
Beyond film and music icons, the stars of the Met Gala also shine through their impeccable fashion and stunning jewelry, which often become iconic moments in fashion history. Over the years, some jewelry masterpieces that graced the red carpet have become legendary — including a breathtaking emerald necklace from the new Bvlgari collection, which shimmered on Priyanka Chopra’s neck just a few evenings ago.
This year’s Met Gala saw Priyanka Chopra truly steal the spotlight. The Bollywood star and Bvlgari ambassador donned the “Magnus Emerald” pendant, set to be officially unveiled at the end of May alongside other exquisite pieces from the “Polychroma High Jewelry” collection.
At the heart of the necklace is a remarkable 241.06-carat emerald, weighing just under 50 grams — making it one of the largest emeralds in the world. “Magnus” is also the largest faceted stone Bvlgari has ever crafted, according to 24dailyusa.online .
The story of this extraordinary piece is featured on the brand’s official website, offering insights into its origins. Jewelers and designers may have found inspiration in Priyanka herself; the vibrant green stone complements her complexion, character, radiant smile, and energetic presence perfectly.
When creative director Lucia Silvestri introduced Priyanka to the gemstone collection, including the pre-designed emerald necklace, she was utterly mesmerized. An enduring and powerful piece, it left Priyanka momentarily breathless. Little did she know she would be the one to wear such a stellar creation at an event as prestigious as the Met Gala.
The necklace added a distinctive, polka-dotted flair to her Balmain ensemble, chosen for a glamorous night in New York City.
Many consider emeralds the most beautiful gemstones. They symbolize renewal of the soul and body, recovery, prosperity, and elevate energy levels, enhancing one’s ability to enjoy life to the fullest — experts explain.
Since ancient times, emeralds have been treasured across cultures for their mesmerizing color and believed mystical powers. The ancient Egyptians used emeralds to adorn sarcophagi, and the legendary Cleopatra regarded this gemstone as sacred.
