A celebration of jewellry!
As mothers are known for having put up without a fuss, wearing those noodle necklaces made from the sweat of their brows, when the time is ripe, they do deserve, an 18-carat gold, amethyst or Burmalite versions signed Simone Gabor or other Burma. Definitely a bit more expensive, but that is all a part of the growing up process and becoming an adult...
Of course, this most likely will involve approaching good old dad to get him to get his wallet out. He, of course, will graciously do so, once he discovers this beautiful tourmaline ring created by Géraldine Valluet. We can already see it on mum’s finger!

Burma: Every young girl’s dream...
Michelle Morgan, Joséphine Baker or even Jeanne Moreau : to join ranks with the distinguished VIP clientele that played a part in building the legend of the fashion jewellers of the Rue de la Paix, we select the Mouna silver and Burmalite necklace, with its pear-cut white Zirconium oxide. A princess’s dream with a show of luxury.

Perlota, on the footsteps of Esmeralda
After children’s collections bearing messages of love, Perlota is now targeting female gentry, designing its jewellery to be just as many personal journeys and reminiscing collections. Sublime due to its composition and its light weight materials, the Esmeralda, this yellow gold, iridescent and Tsavorite opal ring, lead us in one stroke, on the trail of tormented heroines. The epitome of romantic jewellery, if there was ever such a thing.

A drop of gold on burning stones
A green amethyst, coming close, but not reaching, a delicately smoked quartz, all hardly touched by an 18-carat gold setting which provides such a discreet backdrop to a delicious show of gems,that it looks like the gems are suspended or even floating: this is more or less, a summary of Simone Gabor’s work, the completely new costume jewellery brand listed with the indispensable talent scout, Colette. Discreet and light. A real success.

Burberry: Springtime in the air
The Burberry jewellery collection is blowing out its first anniversary candle and on this occasion is offering an ethnic-floral range that gives off a lovely air of springtime. We love those necklaces set acrylic flowers on a dark nickel chain. Of course, to be completed with the home-made bell-shaped straw hat for the absolute romantic look.

The retro charm of Charleston
Could this be like a memento from the Roaring Twenties, when people wanted to forget about the dark clouds that were looming over that era? What people do like to think about this period is its charm as reflected in Bachet’s Charleston Collection; slender lines set with black diamonds that underline the brilliance of white diamonds. In a subtle game of complementarities and of diamond duos, the Charleston necklace displays all its natural … and timeless elegance.
Price: 2100 €
A precious tie of love
White gold and strips of sapphire circled by diamonds, it is from these precious stones that a tie of love is woven, in H. Gringoire’s eyes. A certain classical taste in the grand luxury version. A pure proof of love for the most beautiful among mothers.
Price: 4 690 € onwards
When Van Cleef takes us for a stroll in Paris
It is a stroll through a springlike and light-hearted Paris that jeweller Van Cleef & Arpels invites us to partake in: "une semaine à Paris", a collection that takes us on a fun and enchanting journey for one week in Paris. Luxe Magazine has a weakness for the chain of pearls of "Mercredi à Paris", that also come in a pendant and bracelet. All set in poetry, with its beautiful, colourful balloons and a quick return to our childhood, so that the enchantment of mother’s years of her secret childhood garden can shine in her eyes!

Multifaceted Baccarat: And letter there be light!
The Baccara multifaceted chandelier crystal ball continues to monopolise conversations! Toning the light down in a subtle game of random effects, it stands out in a disco-chic collection with Baroque reflects, troubling the quietude of rings, earrings and bracelets. We especially like the long collar in clear crystal, white ceramic and yellow gold. Brilliant.
