The beautiful but strange jewels

The most surprising jewels: from the diamond glove to the pavé handcuffs ♦

Strange jewels. There are not only the classic pearl necklaces, or the solitaire ring: designers and jewelers occasionally indulge in incredible fantasies. For example, what would you say about a diamond-encrusted glove? There is, and it was designed by Jacob & co. Or you might like some pink earphones with Swarovski crystals. In this case, an Indian brand called iWave took care of it. Or, again, the thong sandals with crystal gem proposed a few years ago by Tamara Comolli.

Then there is the shoe chapter: stylists have indulged in creating shoes that look like jewels or jewels that look like shoes, you name it. An example: Casadei designer shoes, with Swarovski crystals. Or those by Ruthie Davis that were liked, they say, by Beyoncé, Penelope Cruz, Jennifer Lopez, and Lady Gaga. Perhaps the most surprising jewel, however, is represented by the pair of diamond-studded handcuffs signed a few years ago by the Swiss jeweler de Grisogono, which however no longer exists.

If we exclude that they are used by policemen with a mania for luxury, the suspicion arises that they are intended for fans of 50 Shades of Grey. Less unusual as an object, but equally precious is the perfume spray adorned with a gecko composed of small Colombian emeralds, which climbs on branches designed with diamonds. Some, however, will raise an eyebrow at the choker, a leather and gold dog collar style, with a bone-shaped pendant: it is designed by Chopard and is intended for high-class pets.

A little out of the ordinary, it must be admitted, was also the Grace Kelly pen by Montblanc, studded with diamonds and pink sapphires: who knows what you can write with such an object. The skirt by Titan Industries seems more traditional, but it isn’t, with designs made of cubic zirconia and Swarovski crystals: be careful when sitting down, though. Technology couldn’t be missing: an iPad cover colored with crystals to feel in step with technology.

51% of women buy jewelry for herself

Over half of the women buy the jewels for herself. And loves white metal ♦ ︎

Are women in New York different from those in Boston, London, Paris or Milan? Probably not. The survey conducted time ago by MVI Marketing on the purchasing habits of young and very young american women, including the so-called Millennials, should be read carefully. According to the survey, girls born at the turn of the year 2000, also called Generation Y, often buy jewelry for themselves.

Shopping da Tiffany
Shopping at Tiffany’s

The market analysis company questioned 1,001 women aged 25 to 40 in the United States and with a family income of at least $ 75,000. Result: 51% of young women buy jewelry for themselves, as a reward for some achievement achieved or for their own pleasure. This is an interesting element for those who make jewelry: these are potential customers, in fact, for the next 30 years. And the fact of having a behavior so independent of the jewelry also means, probably, a different orientation than the classic jewelry, intended for ceremonies or anniversaries. 14% of the women interviewed, on the other hand, said they were buying a jewel as a gift for their husband or partner, while 17% bought jewelry as a couple, probably for special occasions. The preference for metal is also interesting: 35% indicated white gold, 17% silver and 15% platinum. In other words, white is fashionable: only 13% indicated pink gold and 11% yellow.

The survey also asked what were the preferred brands and, in this case, we must remember that the survey was conducted in the USA. In any case, Tiffany, Pandora and Swarovski ranked first, in a list that also included Alex and Ani, Gucci, Cartier and Tory Burch. But, in fact, this is a result that applies to the United States.
Finally, another interesting fact: MVI asked the interviewees if they will would bought a synthetic diamond, produced in the laboratory. 43% said it was possible, but uncertain, 21% did not rule it out, but asked for more information, while 13% said yes, they would buy a synthetic diamond.

Fashion with Paviè




Raffaele and Francesco Palma a dozen years ago added the business of a brand, Paviè, to the management of the family jewelery in the center of Ottaviano (Naples). The brand represents a line of bijoux aimed at a fashionable female target, attentive to novelties, but also to prices. Paviè earrings, necklaces and rings are available at a very affordable price, with the idea of offering bijoux that can be changed often without too many problems. To contain costs, Paviè uses resins worked with artisan techniques, Swarovski crystals and brass, but also silver.

The type of material used also allows us to propose a large number of models, including earrings with cubic zirconia, crystals or resin, which are suitable for the creation of classic or more fashionable shapes. The brand has also organized an online shop to reach the widest possible audience. The brand was also present at the winter edition of Vicenzaoro.

Tempo by Pilo & Co with Swarovski crystals




The Tempo collection by Pilo & Co Genève features watches with black or colored straps, available in different materials and finishes.

The company has chosen this place wrapped in a strong historical charge. It is here that it all began and today Pilo & Co Genève creates, like the cabinotiers, watches that are part of the original spirit of the factory: independence from big companies, the virtue of quality and an artistic and jewelery dimension.

Brosway Affinity




Affinity, i.e. Attraction, mutual sympathy. An affinity is also, according to the current definition, the commonality of feelings between two or more people for ideas and tastes. The expression Affinity, which is now used by Brosway for a collection of bijoux, also refers to the title of a work by J. W. Goethe, Elective affinities. In the book the feelings are compared to those that occur in chemistry between two associated elements, which split and associate forming, by law of mutual attraction, new couples. The Affinity collection probably does not aim to induce reflection on the issue of compatibility between two people.

More simply, the line of bijoux of the Bros Manifatture group brand aims to offer necklaces, rings, earrings and bracelets that can make the appearance pleasant and, therefore, encourage the development of affinity. The different pieces of the collection are made of 316L steel, gold-colored finish and Swarovski crystals or pearls.

Alcozer, Florentine style bijoux




The unmistakable style of luxury bijoux signed by Alcozer, a Florentine Maison ♦ ︎

In Florence, brass is like gold: it becomes a luxury material thanks to the precise and craftsmanship, as well as unlimited use of imagination. But to be successful you must also have a style. This is what Alcozer & J, an artisan company, has been able to do, specializing in the creation and production of luxury jewelery. Its jewels, in fact, can start from just over 100 euros to get to almost 1000 of a semi-rigid necklace in gilded brass with branch and leaves of ivy in emerald, embellished with garnet berries, pearls and Swarovski crystals. Brass is gold or rose gold or silver with a galvanic process.

Rain of jewels with Rain by Brosway

/




It’s raining jewels. But not from the clouds: this is not a weather phenomenon, but the Rain collection by Brosway, a brand of the Bros Manifatture group. The inspiring idea is original and replaces the infinite collections of hearts, leaves and lucky icons, which characterize almost all jewelry brands, especially those that offer bijoux at affordable prices. Like Brosway, in fact. The inspiring rain becomes earrings, necklaces, bracelets, with a dripping shape.

Instead of the drops of water, however, there are fringes and Swarovski Elements crystals of various colors, with prevailing shades of white, blue and green. The crystals simulate stones such as erinite (you don’t know it, but we say: it is an emerald green mineral, with a luster tending to resinous), aquamarine, crystal moonlight (i.e. colorless crystal) and peridot. As always, the jewels are in 316L steel, also gold-colored finish.

The jewelers that close in Russia




The real drama is that of human lives lost in vain, of overwhelmed lives, of lives that will never be the same. But the war in Ukraine also causes a smaller, much smaller, but not irrelevant, drama related to jobs, in the West and in Russia, which will be lost to a stupid aggression. Both Russians and Westerners are dealing with the inevitable sanctions announced in time, before the invasion, which will have an impact on the accounts of companies, for example those of jewelry, as well as on the people who work there. The collapse of the ruble and the blocking of the credit card service, in fact, led many jewelry companies to suspend their business. Maybe they will close completely or reopen, if it all ends, but who knows when.

Boutique De Beers a Mosca
Boutique De Beers a Mosca

At the time of writing this short article, the last Western brand to close the boutique in Moscow was Swarovski, while Tiffany was among the first to lower the shutter, along with Vuitton. Others have already done so, others will follow. The list of Western Maisons that have opened a boutique in Moscow, St. Petersburg or other Russian cities is long. In Moscow, for example, they have a boutique Chopard, Van Cleef & Arpels, Akillis, Piaget, De Beers, H. Stern, Stephen Webster, Carrera y Carrera, Mauboussin, Mont-Blanc, Dior, Chaumet, Pandora, Frey Wille, Cartier , Trollbeads, Vuitton, Thomas Sabo, Bulgari, Pomellato, Adamas, Damiani, Buccellati. Other brands, such as Pasquale Bruni or Alcozer, are distributed in non-owned jewelers, or in airport duty free shops.

According to an analysis concerning Italian jewelery conducted by ICE (the state body for exports) in general, the Russian buyer is oriented towards medium or medium-high level jewelery. Also according to the analysis, the daily use of rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces, especially in the capital and large cities, is now seen as a form of accessory to one’s image, not necessarily combined with luxury clothing or for events special. The favorite items of Russian women are rings, chains and earrings; men prefer chains and bracelets, while brooches and necklaces are bought by a minority of the female population, while typically male jewelry such as cufflinks and tie pins are in low demand. In recent years, however, silver jewelery has been more successful than gold, due to the unfavorable ruble-euro exchange rate. Italy (2019 data) exports about 77 million jewels to Russia, about 22 million France, the United States 21 million and the United Kingdom 23 million. However, the one who exports the most to Russia is China with over 88 million.

Brosway’s Affinities

///




Brosway’s Affinity collection alludes to an important aspect of life. Through the web, you can access dozens of sites that suggest which are the right couple affinities by reading the horoscope. It so happens that no palmistry coincides with the other, an aspect that raises some doubts about the effectiveness of these predictions. But this does not mean that it is wrong to ask ourselves what the affinities between two people really are. Are they just practical? Or affective? Or, again, of a sexual nature? Without forgetting the similarities with regard to sports practiced, free time, music, cinema and, for the more fortunate, even those concerning reading.

Anelli Affinity
Anelli Affinity

All this premise to describe the bijou collection of the group headed by Bros Manifatture. This is a rather large collection (in the press kit we have images of 151 different jewels), made of rhodium-plated brass with the addition of white or colored Swarovski crystals. The line includes all types of jewelry, from rings to earrings, and in particular with a long series of necklaces. Often with crystals of different colors. Different, but similar.

From Bauhaus to Coeur de Lion

/




Geometries, bright colors and affordable prices: the bijoux by the German brand Coeur de Lion ♦

It’s easy to say design. But only new ideas are capable of instilling new sap. It is the story of Coeur de Lion, that despite the francophone name is a Stuttgart brand. Have you ever heard of Bauhaus, that movement of architects and designers of the Thirties in Germany, who invented the concept of modern design? Well, Carola Eckrodt and her husband Nils from 1987 took lessons (virtual) by Gropius & c. The result is jewelry made with a humble metal such as aluminum, but with so many ideas that it becomes valuable. And, above all, do great fun. Sign that there is still room to invent. The idea is to use for the jewels of the elements chosen usually for an industrial use.

CollanaGeoCube con cluster rin oro e argento
CollanaGeoCube con cluster rin oro e argento

The first designs of this type have been presented in Monaco of Bavaria. And a couturier Düsseldorf, Hanns Friedrichs, bought the entire first collection. Ten years later, Carola Eckrodt has successfully created the Geo Cube Collection, which not coincidentally you can also find at Bauhaus Museum in Weimar, at the Smithsonian in Washington and at the Royal Academy in London. In addition to these metal charms, the bijoux which love modernity they include Polaris resin, colored glass hand finished, and Swarovski crystals. In short, the estetic courage is not lacking, as true hearts lion.

The candy jewelry from Swarovski

//




Hypothesis 1: the creative director of Swarovski, Giovanna Engelbert, is on a strict diet. She has forced herself not to eat sweets and is in terrible pain. Hypothesis 2: the creative director of Swarovski, Giovanna Engelbert, is skinny as a nail and feeds exclusively on candies, pastry and whipped cream. Whatever the right hypothesis, the creative of the Austrian Maison has created a mini collection that is perhaps inadvisable for those suffering from diabetes: Dulcis. As the name indicates in Latin, the jewels in this line are inspired by the favorite food of almost all women and even men, the sweetes. More precisely, the jewelry resembles the shape of soft candy.

Orecchini a lobo Dulcis
Orecchini a lobo Dulcis

It goes without saying that, on the other hand, they are made of metal and solid crystal and it is not advisable to try to swallow them even if you are prey to a fit of hunger. Dulcis includes seven pieces: two rings, two pairs of earrings, two choker necklaces and a pendant necklace. The rings are in iridescent colored metal, and sunken in the center is a cushion cut Swarovski crystal. Its inner band is in the same shade. The inspiration is that of the pop art of the Sixties, perhaps with a touch of MasterChef.

A harem for Boccadamo

//




There are not many women who would like to be part of a harem. On the other hand, there are many women who would like their own harem made up of jewels. Perhaps with this idea in mind Boccadamo, the Italian brand specializing in bijoux and jewelry, launched the Harem collection long ago, now renewed with new pieces. The bijoux line is enriched with new color combinations of Swarovski crystals, for a palette that ranges from the colors of aquamarine, amethyst, peach, to vintage rose and turquoise.

The sets, which include necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings, are distinguished by their characteristic floating and colorful design, thanks to the multi-colors of the faceted round crystals, which suggest oriental atmospheres, as the name of the collection also indicates. The bijoux are made of bronze, with rose gold plating. The prices are in line with those of the category: from about 34 to 70 euros for earrings, up to 94 euros for some necklaces.

Shourouk, fantasy beyond fashion


x



The jewels full of inspiration and colors signed by Shourouk Rhaiem, from fashion to luxury accessories ♦ ︎
The world of bijoux is vast as an ocean where swim many fish different among there. Bijoux, in fact, leave more freedom to designers who design them than gold and precious stones. For jewels, materials matter relatively, what matters is the imagination of those who conceive them. And Shourouk Rhaiem does not lack imagination. Strong colors and surprising shapes are its trademark.

Orecchini Theodora in ottone
Orecchini Theodora in ottone

Shourouk says that as a child she already had a passion for jewelry, born playing with her grandmother’s diamond bracelets. To understand his style, however, it is necessary to tell his story and experiences in fashion houses like Chloé and Galiano in Paris or Roberto Cavalli in Florence. Between jewels and fashion, here are the bijoux, the third way of creativity. In 2008 the designer decided to found the company that bears her name.
Her collections have appealed to a series of cover women such as Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Lopez and Michelle Obama. Colors, accentuated shapes and a slightly pop taste, along with Swarovski crystals were the key to its success. Which has not been limited to the world of jewelry, but has expanded to accessories and fashion.

Crystalline outfit with Antica Murrina

//




The Murano crystals, in the Venice lagoon, are transformed into rings, bracelets and necklaces with Antica Murrina ♦

A few kilometers from the Venice lagoon, in Olmo di Martellago, Antica Murrina designs and produces its bijoux inspired by the ancient Venetian glass. Pearls worked by hand according to the age-old tradition of craftsmanship, crystals, colors: the company founded in the eighties combines the charm of the lake with the uniqueness of the crystals. The typical processing of Murano glass, in fact, means that each piece is a little different from the other with inclusions of bubbles and different transparencies, the result of craftsmanship. But that’s not all: Ancient Murrina also uses the most modern Swarovski crystals.

The result is necklaces, earrings and bracelets made in red, silver, blue and gold. The glass treated according to a process developed over time, is combined with steel and silver or gold leaves. The prices are quite low: the necklaces do not exceed 150 euros. For the FW 2020-2021 season Antica Murrina proposes the Diva collection.

The angelic side of Swarovski

//




The spiritual side of Christmas comes from Christian religious traditions, with the outline of good intentions for the year that is about to be born. To accompany this festive and profound atmosphere at the same time, there is angelic music (more or less sacred, you name it) which is the soundtrack of the month of December. Atmosphere that is now translated into a collection by Swarovski with the new Angelic jewelry line, which is part of the Austrian house’s Fall / Winter 2020 offer.

Bracciale con cristallo verde

The new Angelic line is characterized by new stone cuts and modern and contemporary silhouettes. Stones in shades of white, blue and the novelty of emerald green are found on bracelets, earrings, rings and pendants, embellished with pavé decorations. The design of the bijoux is absolutely classic, a perfect replica of the jewels that instead of crystals have real precious stones. Of course there is the difference with the original, but in the Christmas spirit the angels will not go to check the origin of the crystals with a magnifying glass.

Swarovski plays tennis

Playing tennis with Swarovski. Christmas Day. The Austrian brand famous for its crystals, in fact, focuses on Tennis Deluxe, a collection that summarizes the company’s specialty. It should be added, however, that despite the name, the collection is not identified with the classic tennis bracelets (if you don’t remember why they are called that way, you can read this article).

Instead, the Tennis Deluxe collection makes Swarovski crystals sparkle in preparation for Christmas shopping, with bijoux that seem made for evenings, dinners and parties, in the hope that it will be possible to make them. In any case, earrings and necklaces with colorless crystals and classic teardrop or brilliant shapes are proposed as jewels at an affordable price for those who dream of diamond necklaces in a fairytale atmosphere. Better not pay too much attention to the word tennis and instead keep in mind the word crystals, the real protagonists of this Christmas line by Swarovski.

Swarovski dark for Halloween

//




Every year the Halloween party brings with it more or less lively opportunities for fun or, for children, the search for sweets among the neighbors, as the American tradition dictates. Often the parties for the day dedicated to spirits and ghosts is also accompanied by a themed clothing. Of course, the outfit also includes the choice of jewels. Swarovski, for example, is one of those jewelry brands that every year offers bijoux in tune with the Halloween theme.

For 2020, the Austrian Maison offers bijoux with crystals with a particular black color: earrings, pendants and watches are, in short, in a dark theme. Drops of black crystal and pavé, always with the elements that characterize Swarovski, are also used for a series of crosses. In addition, the brand also offers a series of gold metal jewels with white crystal pavé, but with a vaguely Christmas air. And, indeed, Halloween already ushers in the winter holiday season.

Squares and circles with the Brosway Juice collection

//




A combination of variable geometries, with large but light volumes. And a name that refers to a liquid element: Juice. The juicy collection of Brosway, a brand of the Bros Manifatture group, in any case, has a name that contrasts a little with the style of the bijoux proposed for the autumn winter 2020 season. The gist of the matter is, however, that these are exercises of style that are a little inspired by the art deco period.

Squares, circles and lines, in fact, are somewhat reminiscent of those geometric combinations that can be seen looking through the kaleidoscope. The bijoux of the Juice collection are made of steel, with a version with a gold finish, along with Swarovski crystals. Prices are, as usual, within everyone’s reach: for example, a long necklace costs 54 euros, dangling earrings 72 euros, a steel ring and crystals only 29 euros.

In fact, this type of women’s shoe in America is called T-Bar. Perhaps this was the inspiration for the T-Bar line of bijoux presented by Swarovski for the fall winter 2020 season. Even if, in truth, these bijoux from the Austrian house do not seem to have a shape that alludes to that shoe model.

In any case, the Swarovski T-Bar Line stands out for the particular dark gray color of the crystal, which takes shape on earrings, bracelets and pendants with essential lines. In addition to the faceted gray crystal drops, which are mounted on gold colored metal, some models in this line also use small white crystals set. Prices: earrings and bracelet 79 euros, the necklace 129 euros, earrings with gray and white crystals 119 euros.
