The moths of Stephen Webster in the Fly by Night collection: it’s dedicated to the inhabitants of the air but without forgetting the sea ♦ ︎
Stephen Webster, a British designer who has become a sort of myth for many of his colleagues, has chosen to become an example also in terms of environmental sustainability. Stephen Webster, in fact, collaborates with the Plastic Oceans Foundation and donates 10% of all proceeds from sales (and it’s not little) to support their work in preserving the seas. “This initiative is our brand taking a stand for social responsibility. It is well known that I personally have love of all things aquatic and as a consequence, over the years have taken part in several clean ocean and water initiatives. It’s important that no matter how small we play a part in preserving our oceans” explained the London jeweler.
It could therefore be inferred that the great love for water is transformed into collections based on aquamarine, with jewels shaped like waves. But is not so. Indeed, one of the most recent collections is dedicated to the air. Or better, to inhabitants of the air like moths. In fact, the collection is titled Fly by night and consists of pieces with the shape of butterfly-moth. White gold and diamonds are the basic elements. But there are also original solutions, such as the black opal combined with transparent quartz set in white gold. Prices: from about 1000 pounds for the small earrings you go up to 65,000 pounds for the big bracelet studded with white diamonds. Alessia Mongrando
