The Paris Couture Week was a dazzling extravaganza of fashion, haute couture and spectacular high-end designer jewelry. The team behind OGI was overjoyed with the surge of inspiration, but the one collection that truly captured our hearts was none other than Van Cleef & Arpels’ dazzling new designer jewelry collection, titled “Romeo & Juliet.”
The stunning Romeo & Juliet collection opened up with a spectacular display of more than 100 unique and masterful jewelry pieces, and each one was distinctive and original in narrating the damned and tragic love story, a masterpiece by William Shakespeare. Needless to say, Van Cleef & Arpels has always been obsessed with classic literature, and some of the most celebrated works produced by this iconic jewelry maison has been inspired by classics and William Shakespeare.
Back in 2003, Van Cleef & Arpels had stunned the world with their breathtaking collection inspired by another Shakespeare masterpiece, titled “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”.
Marking the beginning of the star-crossed love story in Juliet’s balcony, to the glorious city of Verona, and the coat of arms of the rival Montague and Capulet families, the collection is an iconic celebration of young love. The collection is beautified with stunning red, blue, and green gemstones, which also dominate the mood and color scheme.
Van Cleef & Arpels have masterfully blended two beautiful shades to give birth to a stunning mauve color, which is symbolic of the passion of young love and the promise of eternal togetherness, while emerald green represents hope and optimism. The Romeo & Juliet pair of clips is indeed one of the most remarkable pieces, with beautifully crafted Italian Renaissance costumes and a delightful bouquet of sapphire flowers. The team behind OGI is obsessed with the impressive 3D craftsmanship, which makes the figurative pieces look stunningly real-life.
The OGI Ltd team also adored the romantically gorgeous vero amore ring, the charming Italian rose necklace, and the bud love of earrings. Needless to say, this contemporary adaptation of Shakespeare’s tragic tale of young love has been masterfully embodied into a stunning jewelry collection. Van Cleef & Arpels have certainly outdone their own commitment to talent and creativity by designing unique jewelry pieces that are symbolic of the romantic tale of Rome & Juliet.
The collection is dominated by rich shades of blue, red, emerald green and mauve, and represent the gorgeously entwined sentiments of passion, eternal love, Renaissance art and classic beauty.
