New ring designs: I am charmed!
Hi everybody,
This is to share with you my big excitement of yesterday. I was meeting a goldsmith to change the locks on my (still not exactly identified but rather Tahitian) mabes. This is a young man, who graduated in Antwerpen a couple of years ago and now is an independent designer and a goldsmith with very fresh and challenging ideas. Many of his designs include pearls. Of course, I was not able to resist and left with a gorgeous necklace, weak woman... But I also had a great time studying and trying on different interesting things, soooo exquisitely made. I am putting a couple of photos below, aren't they extraordinary? - really done with fantasy and love!
This is just such a contrast to the average quality of pearl collections in Dutch and generally many European jewelry stores (which sell a lot of quite blemished, off-round and still very expensive pearls, not only but often... don't understand why...).
Here are the photos. The first ring is especially beautiful, it has a cahrming FW baroque (I guess it is FW) and white, champaine and black diamonds. So exquisite!

I wish I was a goldsmith... That first piece is just gorgeous- very avant garde
