GLOW - Behind The Scenes

Heat of Summer into the GLOW of Autumn...
“You can really sense the luminosity shining from these pieces which lifts the spirits easing the transition into the dusky daytimes and cosy soirées. As the evenings get longer the warming lights will capture your glistening jewels and form silhouettes and patterns as you move.”

Like us, you may wonder at and welcome the changing seasons and the beautiful transformations all around.
The Glow Collection draws its inspiration from nature’s patterns and transitions. We became fascinated by the incredible “Chinese Lantern” physalis plant, where the lantern shape is formed from a delicate papery orange husk with a web-like lattice of veins, which as the winter comes, transforms into the finest skeleton that protects the cherished gleaming fruit that grows within.
A poignant symbol of strength through the changing seasons of life.
Seeming delicate but showing strength.
The collection reflects on the incredible structures we find in nature. They appear so delicate, yet have the strength to thrive even through the challenges of winter.
Ranging from representative to abstract, each piece experiments with and celebrates a different element of these awe-inspiring plants.
It was this balance of fine lacy patterns embroidered by nature that inspired us to play with layers and proportions. Our onsite artists and goldsmiths have translated these contrasts into unique, wearable pieces of jewellery.
Exquisite gemstones that don’t cost the earth.
You may already know that we pride ourselves on sourcing gemstones ethically. For Glow we wanted deep orange gemstones that could capture the fiery, intense orange spheres of the lantern and represent the warmth and protection of light.
Intensity and brilliance.
We scoured and searched before finally carefully selecting a gorgeous range of individually selected Fairtrade fire citrines, deep orange sapphires and scintillating spessartite garnets. Stones that explode the senses and create the impact we sought for this exquisite couture collection.

Each piece is uniquely handcrafted in our workshop, and we invite you to experience the collection for yourself at our Glow Launch Event on Thursday15th October.
