Shooting Star in Christmas Time

For many and different reasons this year (and especially the oher, 2020), has been the year of changes. I have made some myself. One big change, many small, some important and some insignificant. Some inside my way of thinking and some the way I feel…  You already know how much I love brooches, and you […]

Three Shades of Grey and Blue.

Do you like long necklaces? Very, very long necklace?  I do, very much, and this time I could have exaggerated. Someone may say I did, but I don’t think so. At the beginning of the last century this kind of ornament was very common, especially the one made with pearls.  Do you remember “The Great […]

Grandma’s Promised Ring

This time I would like to show you a piece of my family history. This stone was set on a ring my granny used to wear. I was fascinated by its dimensions, colour, and clearness. She always said it would be mine someday. Time has passed and I have forgotten this ring in a drawer. […]

Today I present you this ring with its earrings just perfect for this season. Summer is an explosion of colours, perfumes and tastes. Nature gives us the best of herself with juicy fruits. The sapphire with its cushion cat is a sip of a sweet peachy drink. But the gem that I would like to […]

Sometimes it isn’t the inspiration that guides you in the creation of a piece of jewellery. It isn’t a place, a style, or a culture. Sometimes it is just the gem’s shape that dictates the lines of a piece. Following the lines of these stones, you can intersect them with the others and the earrings […]

The summer is getting closer and we are all checking what we have in our wardrobes. I do the same with jewels. There are accessoires suited for winter and certainly, there are jewels suited for summer. I chose them for materials (silver, corals), colours (light blue, yellow, orange and light green), and subjects like fish, […]

A Lovely Afternoon

It happens that you have a friend and that this friend is an antique dealer. Last Saturday, we were admiring the new arrivals in his shop. Bracelets, rings and earrings, all beautiful and all from the 60s and 70s. While we were chatting (I love chatting like that), it came up that he has an […]

Into The Rabbit Hole

When I was a kid I used to browse through my mom’s glossy fashion magazines. She used to buy a considerable amount of them and she used to keep the ones with articles about jewels or famous jewellers.  Everywhere you could find magazines like that and I, getting through those pages, was fascinated by the […]

Dear beloved grannies

2020, many things have been told about this year. The other day I was thinking about the loss that joins many people who live these terrible periods, the painful loss of grandparents. It is an tough loss of love, memory and wisdom. I thought about my grandparents and the period of childhood I’ve been with […]
