What does HW mean in TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE

Company History

Harry Winston began his business as a modest storefront in New York City. He quickly found success with his signature diamond designs that were later sold to some of the wealthiest clients around the world including Hollywood stars and Royals. In 1949, he opened the iconic flagship store on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, which became an iconic landmark of luxury style. In addition to their brick-and-mortar stores, HW also operates a highly successful e-commerce website offering shoppers access to their collections from all over the world. Through their continued dedication to design excellence and innovation they have become one of the most renowned diamond companies worldwide with a deep commitment to craftsmanship and design heritage.

Famous Pieces

Throughout its history, HW has created some of the most remarkable pieces of jewelry including "The Hope Diamond," "The Idol’s Eye," "The Star of India," as well as countless other timeless classics. The Hope Diamond was believed to bring misfortune upon its owner; however, this did not stop Harry Winston from purchasing it and donating it to The Smithsonian Institute where it remains on public display today. Each piece crafted at HW carries its own unique story and stands out from anything else available today due to their unparalleled attention to detail and commitment to quality craftsmanship. They continue this legacy today by creating collections that range from classic styles such as pearls or emeralds set with diamonds to contemporary designs made with more modern materials like titanium or exotic gems like rubies or sapphires.
