2015 for jewelry according to Swarovski Gems. Its trend forecasts have been eagerly awaited by designers and buyers, as well as enthusiasts, for 11 years. Gioiellis.com is able to publish the conclusions reached by Swarovski experts. Among other things, this is the second time this year that the Austrian company has published its style and trend recommendations: in spring, in fact, Swarovski had focused on engagement and wedding trends. The forecasts for 2015 focus entirely on modernity. The Gem Vision team has outlined the five directions that are emerging for next year. Here they are.
1 New Horizons Eastern Europe and its folklore. Rural life and pagan rites, craftsmanship. For lovers of classical music, these themes bring to mind the music of Igor Strawinsky and his Rite of Spring. In short, there will be symbols and talismans, along with the use of materials such as wood and leather. And gems such as citrine and rhodolite, along with rough granite and opaque metals.
2 Zero to Infinity A balance between science and art, philosophy and mysticism. The exploration of mega-opposites, which translates into combinations of unconventional materials. An example: rough gems combined with mercury or gray diamonds with cement. The gems used in this trend are moonstone, opals, sapphires, lapis lazuli and pearls.
3 Hommage In essence, this trend is a sophisticated vision in luxury. According to The Gem Vision, this trend is ultra-sensual, but also intellectual. Bronze becomes the privileged metal, complemented by red and pink gold, marbles and precious woods. For customers who prefer timeless pieces, a classic palette can be composed of sapphires, emeralds and rubies with geometric cuts.
4 Creatures It is the victory of the Fantasy genre. Between science and creativity, artificial and flora and fauna, in a kind of exotic hybrid. This trend is inspired by biology and its multicolored spectrum. Materials used: opals and mother-of-pearl with gems such as peridot, citrine topaz. Perhaps combined with alternative supports such as rubber and ceramic.
5 Inti-mate Memories, emotions, intimacy: these are the three elements that inspire Inti-mate. Many will like this attention between jewels, body and its senses. In this case opaque surfaces and translucent layers are coupled with resin textures and precious stones such as amethyst, pink sapphire, champagne diamonds. The natural curves of the body influence the cut and shape of the gems.
