A Storied Estate | Hill-Stead Museum

Hill-Stead Museum set atop a rolling landscape in Farmington, Connecticut is a sanctuary of scenic grandeur and captivating history.


There’s no better time to embrace the allure of natural diamonds than springtime. At Lux Bond & Green, we believe every season has its sparkle, but Spring, with its sense of renewal and romance, is the perfect backdrop for showcasing the beauty of our fine jewelry.

This season, we found inspiration at the Hill-Stead Museum in Farmington, Connecticut—a place where art, history, and nature converge. Designed in 1901 by Theodate Pope Riddle, one of the first licensed female architects in the United States, Hill-Stead was originally built as a family home before becoming a museum upon her passing in 1946. Unlike traditional art institutions, Hill-Stead offers an intimate and immersive experience, seamlessly blending its historic interiors with an extraordinary collection of Impressionist and decorative art. Set on 152 acres of picturesque New England landscapes in the heart of Connecticut, the estate reflects a legacy of vision, creativity, and craftsmanship—values that resonate deeply with Lux Bond & Green.

With soft natural light illuminating our diamond collections and the estate’s natural beauty as our backdrop, our latest model shoot captured the essence of Spring. Classic diamond line necklaces and vibrant sapphires and radiant yellow diamonds symbolize fresh beginnings and add a classic touch to any outing.

Visit us in-store or online to discover the natural diamonds that will make this season—and every season—unforgettable. Visit hillstead.org to learn more about the history behind the Hill-Stead Museum.
