Syna from silver to gold

From silver to gold: the pair that founded Syna collects awards ♦ ︎

Syna won in the Best in Silver category at the Couture Design Awards 2019. Not only: they also won the Silver, also in category Centurion Award. But, in reality, it is not a silver focused brand. His jewels, in fact, also use colored stones and gold, as in the Indian tradition, even if Dharmesh and Namrata Kothari, the founders, have not adopted the style of the Asian country for their production. The couple founded Syna Jewels in 2003.

Indian jewelers usually do not forget their cultural origin, spiritual beliefs and, in short, their roots. But Syna has adopted a simple stylistic approach, as is the pop cultural environment of much of the West and, perhaps, that of Fort Lee, a suburb of New York, where designers live and work. The jewels, therefore, in addition to the classic tree of life, exemplify the concept with fairly simple jewels: semi-precious stones cut by drop, semi-precious stones with a graceful shape.

Brumani blooms

The Manacà collection by the Brazilian brand Brumani. It is inspired by a Brazilian flower that alludes to … ♦ ︎

Brunfelsia is a genus of flowering plants of the Solanaceae family. Linnaeus, the father of the modern scientific classification of living organisms, named the genus in honor of the German herbalist Otto Brunfels. And it is no coincidence that Brumani, a Brazilian Maison created in 2005 by the German-born brothers Bruner, has decided to dedicate a jewelry collection to Brunfelsia, a name that has a clear assonance with that of the founders. Although, instead of using the botanical name Brunfelsia, they use the common Brazilian name of Manacà.

Blue topaz and pink chalcedony are used to allude to the tubulose flowers with 5 particularly fragrant petals of the Brazilian plant.

Not only. According to Brumani, the Manacà collection represents the various phases of a woman’s life and is a symbol of generosity and unconditional love. The jewels are made of 18 carat white or rose gold, embellished with precious blue topazes and 0.06 carat natural diamonds of superior G quality. The stones are cut into small balls of different sizes, scaled according to their diameter. Delicate jewels, like the flowers they represent. Lavinia Andorno

Indian gardens for Pasquale Bruni

/




The Lakshmi Gardens take Pasquale Bruni to the Olympus of Indian philosophy, including rose gold and chalcedony ♦ ︎
From the secret Gardens to the unexplored Gardens. To which is added the scent of the flowers of Indian mysticism. Pasquale Bruni continues to combine the aesthetics of jewelry with the worlds of Hindu philosophy, as for the collection I Giardini di Lakshmi. For those who do not know, Lakshmi in the sacred Indian texts is the goddess of abundance, light, wisdom and destiny, but also of luck, beauty and fertility. The Hindu pantheon places it as consort of Viṣṇu, and mother with him of Kama. But now, it is also the new collection presented by the Maison of Valenza and for this reason and for the reference to the shape of the lotus petals, the jewels are considered by Pasquale Bruni also as a sort of talisman. “Lakshmi is the beauty of lotus petals dancing in a salute to the sun,” says creative director Eugenia Bruni. The jewels of the Lakshmi Gardens have an elongated, sinuously oriental shape. They are in 18-carat rose gold, like the dangling earrings, or with a pink chalcedony mosaic, not by chance a typically feminine color, together with diamonds. Giulia Netrese

Pasquale Bruni and the Bon Ton goddesses




The Bon Ton line by Pasquale Bruni in the new four delicate shades ♦ ︎
The bon ton is needed when you are in the company of someone, but Bon Ton can also be recommended to be elegant. Pasquale Bruni has one of his major achievements in the Bon Ton collection. The collection extends periodically, as in the case of Bon Ton Goddesses, the celebration of femininity in the divinity that is in every woman. In this variant of the collection, which always presents the shape of the five-lobed flowers that are the symbol of the Maison, the colors are pastel, light and blurred. Four gems, that designer Eugenia Bruni associates with as many muses: the elegance of Selene, goddess of the moon, represented by the milky quartz, the love by Aphrodite with pink quartz, Isis (heavenly goddess) and Lakshmi (goddess of beauty and prosperity) associated with blue and pink chalcedony. Controversial design enhances the contrast between colors and, if you like, symbolic related combinations. The new jewels are thus tied to the Bon Ton line, as in the case of pieces that have adopted the shade of chrysoprase (see also: Pasquale Bruni flowers in green). Giulia Netrese

Pasquale Bruni, new Bon Ton

New jewels of Bon Ton line by Pasquale Bruni.
The Bon Ton line of Pasquale Bruni, one of the big names of Italian jewelry, never ends to add charm and color to the petals that characterize the pieces (we have also spoken here). At VicenzaOro September, for example, the Piedmontese Maison presented a new set with its flowers icon with five points, which are also the symbol of the brand. Bracelet, necklace, earring and ring, worn for the occasion by a model, are made of rose gold, with fine lines of diamonds on the edges, and are now also available with chalcedony. The stone, in various shades of purple, lilac and indigo, assumes soft tones according to the lighting conditions. Always VicenzaOro have made their debuts new pieces of the collection Secret Gardens, one of the major successes of the brand.

Fernando Jorge from Rio to London

Do not be deceived by the name of Fernando Jorge new collection: Stream. It has nothing to do with digital but, on the contrary, is a jump in the real world. That is full of color, with jade, chalcedony, translucent milky quartz and emeralds, full of light with yellow and pink gold and diamonds champagne and brown, and full of energy with its aerodynamic shapes, seemingly simple but highly complex. They are pieces with organic forms, ring pink chalcedony with a row of diamonds for example would look like the teeth of an animal or a jellyfish or the flow stream in fact, of music, a carnival Samba rhythm of  his native country, Brazil, where Jorge, who resides in London, produces its jewelry and buy stones. A touch of Vitamin D that will anticipate the summer in the Resort 2016 season. Matilde de Bounvilles
