Jewelry for the Nostalgic

Fashion / March 05, 2017

I’ve always believed that if jewelry could speak, they’d be tattling more tales than someone tipsy at a dinner party.

The beauty in wearing stones is that sometimes, they do the talking. Our life stories are carved into gems and gold, passing legacy and memories to younger generations.

This is why I really looked forward to Jewelmer Joaillerie’s Spring/Summer 2017 collection. This particular series celebrates life through moments with nature, scenes in travel and the like.

Different pieces evoke various experiences. While the collection is heavily influenced by French design, each piece carries a universal aesthetic that appeals to our most personal encounters.

One with nature

A segment of the series pays homage to nature, from capturing myths to turning art into life. The Quetzal collection—baroque pearls fashioned into the graceful bird of Guatemala and decked in colored stones—consists of pieces that best commemorate moments of freedom in your life.

The Tropics, which combines precious stones shaped into foliage and genuine South Sea Pearls, is a gentle but grand reminder of all the beauty nature has to offer.

Giverny, on the other hand, is a collection straight out of French impressionist Claude Monet’s art. Bring memories of garden strolls with you through these nature-inspired pieces.

LA-PARISIENNE

Journey through life

For those who have to crawl around the city like I do, collections like La Parisienne, Guimard and Voile D’Or capture exciting scenes in our urban journeys.

La Parisienne, as its name suggests, is an ode to the city of love and light. Paris may not always be with us, but our romantic and memorable moments in it are immortalized through delicate keshi pearls with golden charms.

Like Giverny, Guimard finds inspiration in art, this time from its namesake 19th-century French architect who epitomized Art Nouveau. This collection is rich in gold curves, making each piece a sensual addition to any classic outfit.

Voile D’Or is more straightforward. The collection reminds you of voyages with its precious golden figures following the shape of swaying sails.

Slice of life

Then again, even the quieter moments in our lives need to be set in stone. The collections Luminescence, Zen and Nids D’Ange symbolize simpler delights and pleasures.

Luminescence consists of pearls and radiant gold on a mosaic of diamonds that evoke reflections cast by light. These are romantic pieces perfect for remembering moments of silence and reflection.

Zen is a collection that portrays harmony, a series appropriate for those who seek balance in their lives. Pearls rest on a backdrop of diamonds and gold, each piece completing a portrait of a Zen garden and the calm that goes with it.

Nids D’Ange or “angel’s nest” is a showcase of gold, diamond and baroque pearl—a simple yet captivating piece of elegance that elicits wonder.
