Beautiful Things: DK01 MM TORC, inspired jewelry by Dina Kamal

THE DK01 MM TORC by The DK01 Torc Series is a consequence of a study of ancient neck rings throughout history: The Torc as a sensual object and an object of empowerment, once it is placed on the neck in its specific location, it automatically shifts the posture, hence the state of mind. A Torc is a single piece rigid neck ring open at the front. It was mainly worn by men as a medal or trophy to demonstrate rank, strength, and power.

Flowers have been a source of inspiration to artists for centuries. This beautiful flower is captured in its most figurative interpretation, lending its lines to jewellery pieces that emanate elegance and modern style.

Chopard Happy Diamonds 40th Birthday

Since 1976, Happy Diamonds have been joyfully lighting up the eponymous creations from Chopard. Over the years, the famous moving diamonds have been staged through a myriad precious and joyful watch and jewellery creation. To mark their 40th birthday, they revisited the iconic model in which they were first introduced. Inspired by a Waterfall in the Black Forest While out on a walk in the Black Forest during the 1970s, Chopard designer Ronald Kurowski was entranced by the sight of a waterfall and the thousands of tiny water droplets bursting out from it, reflecting the daylight and sparkling with all the colours of the rainbow.

As well as this hypnotic movement the earrings also have a unique hanging element, the hook of the earring is threaded through the back of the ear giving them a much more…
