CHELSEA FLOWER SHOW'S £20 MILLION JEWEL GARDEN

DAVID DOMONEY RECENTLY CREATED A £20 MILLION JEWELED GARDEN FOR THE CHELSEA FLOWER SHOW. THE ACE OF DIAMONDS GARDEN IS LITTERED WITH A STUNNING ASSORTMENT OF JEWELS LOANED BY BOND STREET JEWELERS LEVIEV. THE GARDENS CELEBRATES THE LINKS BETWEEN PLANTS AND PRECIOUS STONES AND ITS CENTERPIECE IS AN ARRAY OF DIAMOND JEWELRY WORTH MILLIONS. THE CREATION BOASTS A £1 MILLION PEONY-SHAPED RING WITH PINK AND GREEN DIAMONDS AND A DAISY-SHAPED RING SET WITH A RARE, FLAWLESS BLUE DIAMOND WORTH £3.2 MILLION. THE GARDEN WILL BE WORTH MORE THAN ALL OF CHELSEA'S OTHER COLLECTIONS PUT TOGETHER WHEN THE ROYAL HORTICULTURE SOCIETY'S ANNUAL SHOWPIECE BEGINS 25.MAY. MANY OF THE PLANTS BEING USED BY DOMONEY HAVE GEMSTONES IN THEIR NAMES SUCH AS EUONYMOUS EMERALD GAIETY, POTENTILLA GOLD FINGER AND HOSTA DIAMOND TIARA. A LOOPING PATH OF STEPPING STONES LEADS TO A CENTRAL, DIAMOND-SHAPED PATIO. WHEN VIEWED FROM ABOVE, IT IS SAID TO LOOK LIKE A PENDENT NECKLACE. THE GARDEN WILL BOAST CHILTERN MARBLE, ROMAN PLINTHS AND BACKLIT WALLS WITH SEMI-PRECIOUS STONES SUCH AS QUARTZ AND AMETHYST. THE GEMS WILL BE ON DISPLAY FOR THE GARDENS LAUNCH AND THE DURATION OF THE JUDGING.
