DMR unveils collaboration to mark Platinum Jubilee
Round brilliant cut diamonds on the brooch have been arranged in the position of the opening notes of ‘God Save The Queen’ in sheet music
David M Robinson (DMR) and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Society have collaborated to introduce a diamond brooch, crafted from 950 grade platinum, and designed to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
The piece bears the Platinum Jubilee hallmark, and features a large white pearl. Round brilliant cut diamonds have been arranged in the position of the opening notes of ‘God Save The Queen’ in sheet music.
The piece was made in-house by DMR’s artisans, bringing together its design and manufacturing teams. It was commissioned by Liverpool Philharmonic and presented to the Queen as a gift to mark the occasion.
Both companies said the collaboration celebrates the longstanding links between Liverpool’s largest music organisation and the family-owned jewellery designer.
The diamond jewellery piece reportedly brings together several design elements which celebrate Her Majesty and this milestone, whilst telling the story of Liverpool Philharmonic and its musical heritage.
Overall, it draws inspiration from Liverpool Philharmonic Hall’s “streamline moderne style” – an international form of Art Deco architecture of the 1930s.
John Robinson, managing director at DMR, said, “It has been a pleasure to collaborate with our friends at Liverpool Philharmonic on the design of this bespoke piece of jewellery for The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
“Not only does it mark this unique occasion that we are celebrating here in the UK, but it also reaffirms a genuine friendship that we have shared with the organisation for many years. We believe that the Liverpool Philharmonic remains one of the jewels in Liverpool’s musical crown.”
Michael Eakin, chief executive of Liverpool Philharmonic, added: “We were delighted when David M Robinson, one of Liverpool Philharmonic’s Premier Sponsors and long-standing supporters, presented this unique idea to us.
“Her Majesty The Queen has been patron of the organisation since 1958. Liverpool Philharmonic is grateful for Her Majesty’s continued support, and we send our congratulations and well wishes on this special occasion.”
