The celebrated jewels of Ofira

/




To get to know the Ofira jewelery brand, one must start from Schwartz, the name of an American family associated with diamonds and jewels with large, colored and large precious stones. Like the jewels worn by celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Lady Gaga, Beyoncé and Bar Refaeli. The family includes two sisters, Lorraine Schwartz and Ofira Sandberg. The first creates pieces of high jewelery, the second ten years ago founded the brand that has her name, Ofira. But it is not in competition with her sister: in reality, the two love and agree.

Unlike her older sister, who designs bespoke jewelry and for special occasions, Ofira Sandberg designs much more casual collections, to be worn every day and young people, closer to the world of fashion. Even Ofira, in any case, often uses colored stones. And Ofira also has a host of famous admirers, such as Farrell Williams, Taylor Swift, Emma Stone, Kate Hudson, Megan Fox, Gigi Hadid, Beyoncé and Blake Lively. It is no coincidence that the two sisters Lorraine and Ofira regularly attend Hollywood and the Oscar ceremony.

The precious bridge of Dima Jewelery

//


x



From Kuwait (but with Palestinian origins) to Canada, then to Cairo … The story of Dima Rashid and of her brand Dima Jewellery, is similar to that of many other women forced to travel the world due to geopolitical tensions. Dima Rashid, however, has chosen a path that has led her to success: her jewels have been worn by celebrities such as Queen Rania of Jordan, Naomi Campbell, Gisele Bundchen, Heidi Klum, Gigi Hadid, Vanessa Williams, Susan Sarandon , Eva Mendez. Gold jewelery, often with a hammered surface, and precious stones. Luxurious jewels, but without exaggerating: they are a tip, in short, between Western and Middle Eastern tastes, which prefers an intense use of yellow metal.

Founded in 2003, Dima Jewelery uses ethically guaranteed materials for its jewels that come from Persia and India and are handmade. In some cases the stones are carved, adding further value to the craftsmanship of composition. The jewels are sold in the boutique in Cairo and other Gulf cities, but also online.

The high acrobatic jewelery by Messika

//




Valérie Messika, the queen of diamonds in Paris, always oscillates between two poles for her jewels: stones of great value and irreverent design. A combination that has upset the classic canons of high jewelery, often anchored in an unchanging style. The new collection, Voltige, also follows a philosophy that Messika describes as movement, balance and imbalance, symmetry and asymmetry. The images of the processing of the jewels, released by Maiason, confirm this description.

The collection includes 20 pieces which, according to the founder of the Maison, is also a return to origins. Voltige is a collection of high jewelery and, therefore, there is no shortage of very precious pieces. Like the Trapézistes ring, with a 10.19 carat pear fancy diamond set in a pentagon. Or the Danseurs Aériens hoop earrings, where a 5.06 carat emerald diamond and a 6.02 carat pear cut diamond coexist in a surprising balance. It is no coincidence that the jewelry line is called Voltige, the French word for circus stunts. The stones, in fact, seem to float in the air: thanks also to the Parisian artisans who managed to concretize the daring designs of the collection.

Voltige’s sense of freedom, on the other hand, is in Messika’s DNA, which at the debut became known with its jewelry with moving diamonds that move on tracks. And that many celebrities like them, such as Beyoncé, who wore a Messika necklace for the Superbowl, or Gigi Hadid, Selena Gomez and Toni Garrn. All attracted by luxury combined with lightness: which is the true symbol of wealth.

The Santos y Cielos collection by Colette

/




Perhaps it is no coincidence that Colette’s new collection, Santos y Cielos, was unveiled when the coronavirus kills thousands of people around the world. The jewels of the French-Mexican designer Colette Steckel, in fact, seem to have come out of one of those Baroque Catholic churches that are found in Spain, Portugal or, precisely, in the countries of Central America. And it is when the fear grows that men and women appeal more to divine protection.

The designer has made it known, however, that the Santos y Cielos collection is above all a tribute to the late father, who died several years ago. And that, probably, would have appreciated the choice of the model called to wear Colette’s jewels: Alana Hadid, stylist and half-sister of the models Gigi and Bella Hadid.

The collection consists of a series of necklaces and a few rings with a religious subject. The jewels are enriched with small medallions with devout images: Madonna, understood as a Christian symbol and not as a singer, Jesus, small angels and Padre Pio, an Italian friar whom many faithful venerate as a saint. The images are hand painted in enamel by Colette herself. Prices range from around $ 1,500 for a ring up to $ 22,000 for more elaborate necklaces.

Messika with Gigi Hadid




From Messika capsule collection Move Addiction with supermodel Gigi Hadid ♦ ︎
Messika is a jewelery Maison among the most famouses in Paris. Gigi Hadid is a front-page supermodel. Together they sign a collection that is a variation on the classic theme in Messika: jewels with small moving elements. In fact, the collection is called Gigi Hadid Move Addiction and celebrates the tenth birthday of Move’s mother collection, designed by Valerie Messika.
Originally the collection was designed by Valerie in mind the memory of when, as a child, she played with diamonds: her father is a stones merchant. But with time, the collection has evolved, as to the capsules conceived with the model: Gigi Hadid is, of course, portrayed with wearing bracelets, rings and earrings of the new line. As in the now-historical Move collection, the pieces are made of 18 carat gold and diamonds, the home’s specialty. The four basic shapes are varied on the basis of the color of gold and the addition of diamonds, with or without pavé. Jewelery also has a close relationship, with a punk style, as in paper-shaped earrings. Alessia Mongrando
