Van Cleef..
.. is indeed the most romantic of all jewellers... totally agree Damjan.
To be honest, we've only first seen Van Cleef pieces in real life 2 years ago, as there's no boutiques in Australia. First time we saw them, they are like poetry. Horribly expensive compared to the other brands though. For the price of their mother of peal necklace, could have gotten a simple diamond necklace from Bulgari or Cartier! :O
Which jewellry brand?
Inspired by Bruno's thread about women's handbags, I thought I'd start one about haute jewellry. As we do have a few fellow lady Purists with impeccable taste on this forum, I'm hoping to get some opinions in this topic For those knowledgeable gentlemen t...
Leo Pizzo, Damiani, Tacori....
As with shoes, watches, cars, etc it depends on your style. Bulgari, Piaget, Tiffany, Cartier have very beautiful and iconic designs. Personally I buy Leo Pizzo, Tacori, and Damiani for jewelry brands. My AD carries Hearts and Arrows/HOF for loose diamond...
Not right now..
... as the last piece was just a couple of months back But it's never too early to acquire some knowledge for next time! Thanks for your list MW!
Nothing huge...
A simple necklace and a pair of earrings.. that's all I can afford right now!...
What I like
which is sometimes, if not frequently, different from "what i find interesting", in no particular order * Some of Buccelatti's neo-renaissance works * Chopard does some lovely work, especially at the high end. That tiger necklace they recently announced i...
I'd say Bulgari and Chopard
My fiance is a big fan of Chopard's Happy Diamonds collection. There's something intriguing about the way the diamonds twirl and float in between the sapphire glass. What type of jewelry does your family like from the Bulgari collection? Do they like the ...
From Bulgari...
... my mother have a few pieces from the Lucea and Cerchi collections.. they're quite interesting as both of these designs involve many different parts joined together so the structure is flexible. My wife have a Cicladi necklace, which consist of a group...
I love Cartier's Trinity collection...
...but for haute joaillerie my favorites are Boucheron, and (not surprisingly) Piaget. Piaget's high jewelry pieces are amazing. Keep an eye out for my upcoming post featuring pictures from the new Limelight Garden Party collection on the Piaget forum. Ch...
Looking forward to your Piaget post Daos!
Not much chance for us to see Piaget high jewelry Down Under, I think we only have the watches here, not jewelry. Would be great to see your photos Ditto for Chaumet and Boucheron. Some of their collections are really gorgeous, but we never have enough ti...
The new Piaget haute joaillerie pieces are up in the forum...
...just for you Sidney! Enjoy! Cheers, Daos
