Argentum~Silver at its creative best! The Trio above have 3 exotic jewels, which narrate an individual tale of their own. Starting from the left, a personal favourite, has gems torn down from 3 different jewel-casing , to end up in an hap-hazard perfection. The yellow stone which is the Citrine, has its prongs gold-plated Silver to compliment the deep yellowish-orange hue, while the remaining American diamonds are cased in rhodium-plated Silver. The Silver spangle earrings in the center are one of my best gifts received by, well, a special Aunt. A product of pure traditional craftsmenship, contemporary in its ways with a percentage of a 100 in its versatile factor. Dainty leafy silver beauties stand pretty towards the right-end. Its not only in the shape of a leaf but it also has tiny leaves dangling from the slanting veins. The design was conceptualized for the Jewels by the bay collection, which is gold-plated to create a richer look, when contrast to the contemporary one. The white metal has an essence of its own, none that can be replicated by any other metal. Resulting in State-of-the-art pieces!

While the rest ogle over the creations of Prestige Jewellery houses such as Harry Winston, Chopard, H.Stern...I sure have my eyes set on de Grisogono (Geneva). Fawaz Gruosi, the creator of the Swiss brand is the inventor of the World's most magnificent pieces of twinkly Heaven. Wholesome Jewellery that exhibits spectacular dimensions and grades of precious and semi-precious gemstones. He was the first jeweller to throw the spotlight on Black Diamonds, not missing out the marvelous idea that crept up from the depths of the ocean, Galuchat paired with gemstones. Galuchat, meaning sharkskin or stingray skin, named after Louis XV's master leather artisan, Jean-Claude Galuchat, who introduced this exotic material to France during the 18th century. What you see above is a chocolate galuchat with metal droplets of Fawaz's other invention - Browny Brown gold.

Playing Michelangelo's role, sculpting my creativity through natural resources is what i dream about, for a living. Allotrope of Carbon (Diamond) , Aluminium oxide (Ruby) , Beryl (Emerald) , Calcium carbonate (Pearl) are the colours on my palette . Whereas, Aurum (Gold) , Argentum (Silver) , Cuprum (Copper), Brass are my canvas.
I never really was obsessed with the luxury, sparkly, expensive jewellery nor did i ever dream of impersonating Elizabeth Taylor, flaunting the most Flamboyant necklaces, around town. But something did eventually draw me towards this bay, it was 'The Art ', the art that needed an endless array of creative notions, exploring of the unknown, aesthetics and chemical compositions. It almost felt as a Professional balance that was satisfactory. Being able to manually work with metals and stones manifested ideas on a contradictory circumstance that can not be borne out of sameness.
