CORONET SETS NEW GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS TITLE UNVEILING THE MOST DIAMONDS SET ON A HANDBAG

• On the 23rd March, Hong Kong diamond jeweler Coronet® sets the official GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the Most diamonds set on a handbag at BASELWORLD Hall 1

• The show-stopping iconic shaped handbag is handset with 9,888 diamonds, 120cts

Hong Kong diamond jeweler Coronet® is proud to announce its accomplishment of its third GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title with the Most diamonds set on a handbag at BASELWORLD 2018 in Hall 1.

Following the launch of the world's Most valuable guitar in 2015 (400 carat diamond) and the worlds' Most jewels on a guitar (16,033 Swarovski jewels) in 2016, this is the third GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS achievement of Coronet's diamond creations. The show-stopping iconic shaped handbag is handset with 9,888 pieces of natural diamonds, 120cts. Production took nearly 100 working days and was a collaboration from more than 15 craftsmen. Icestrella, a material employed in the creation of bulletproof glass, replicates the look and feel of the iconic glass bottle. This incredible handbag is an international collaboration designed by Beverly Hills Designer Kathrine Baumann and fabricated by Aaron Shum of Aaron Shum Jewelry.

Aaron Shum, founder of Coronet® and President of Aaron Shum Jewelry, remarked, "This year, we collaborate with Kathrine Baumann, former Miss America & Beverly Hills Designer to show you the creativity and inspiring jewelry ideas that nobody would expect: a Coca-Cola bottle shaped handbag adorned with 9,888 pieces of diamonds. We had achieved two Guinness World Records titles, and it really made a splash in the industry. There is nothing to stop us from reaching more milestones and we strive to go beyond people's expectations, that's why we created this diamond handbag, our third Guinness World Records title!"

Coronet Patented Diamond Handbag Collection Marries Aesthetics with Innovation
During the show, discerning jewelers and fashion lovers are welcome to visit the Coronet booth to view Coronet's latest patented diamond handbag collection. The handbags are made with premium leather, matched with the iconic brand logo brooch crafted in 925 sterling silver and studded with a genuine diamond, showcasing innovation and creativity as Coronet brings together jewelry and fashion.

"No matter how much you spent on your handbag, there are always chances that you will meet someone who shares the same taste and having the same identical handbag with you in the same occasion. Understanding our customers desire for individuality, I created the diamond handbag together with a brooch that customers can personalize with their own name and style on their handbags." Aaron Shum said.

With 150,000 trade and public visitors as well as over 4,000 media representatives from all over the world, BASELWORLD is the largest and most prestigious watch and jewelry fair in the world. It is also the most important platform to showcase innovations, creations and the latest collections, setting trends and determining what will be worn and most talked about in the coming year.
