Democratic America has no crown jewels. but we’ve got the next best thing, or maybe a better thing altogether, in the Smithsonian’s National Gem Collection, on display in the National Museum of Natural History in a new setting that suits its splendor, the Janet Annenberg Hooker Hall of Geology, Gems and Minerals.

The gem collection dates back to 1884, when a curator in the Smithsonian’s Division of Mineralogy assembled a modest array of American precious stones for display that year at the New Orleans Exhibition. In the ensuing 116 years, the collection has grown to a dazzling scale and beauty, thanks almost entirely to donors who wanted their jewels to be in the nation’s museum.

The names of the great jewels in the collection ? the Napoleon Diamond Necklace, the Marie-Louise Diadem, the Marie Antoinette Earrings, the Spanish Inquisition Necklace, the Portuguese Diamond, the Hooker Emerald ? evoke both the grand realm of history and the dark world of the modern mystery novel. But the most famous of all the gems ? not the biggest, but the one that burns so bright in the public’s imagination that it’s the most sought-out object in the Smithsonian ? is the Hope Diamond. Is the diamond named after the emotion? Nothing so fanciful, I’m afraid. Henry Philip Hope, a London banker and gem collector, owned the stone in the 1830s.

Harry Winston presents a new ladies watch model; the Ocean Lady Z, in a limited edition of 300 pieces. The case is made of Zalium, a metal stronger than titanium used in aerospace engines, surgical tools, and now watches. The Lady Z expands on the now iconic Harry Winston Ocean look with a radiant dial and unique movement. Powering it is an automatic GP 3106 with the HW 2837 module. The lower part of the face has two elliptical moon dials, one in black, and the other white. The double moon phase movement is mostly whimsical displaying two moons, but adds visual interest.
