Platinum jewellery Season’s Collection 2013- 14
Being in love is an endearing feeling which can be cherished for a lifetime. What better way to celebrate a precious relationship bound by true love than with a metal that symbolises eternal love? Precious platinum is eternal. A naturally white metal that never fades or tarnishes with time, just like true love that lasts for an eternity. It is symbolic of the deep emotions around a couple’s enduring love for each other.
At its heart, platinum is immutable and indestructible. This enduring nature makes platinum jewellery the perfect choice for a lifetime of everyday wear.
For centuries, lovers have chosen platinum as an everlasting expression of their love.
Infusing the endearing emotion of endless love is the new range of Platinum Love Bands with wondrous themes – ‘Infinity Symbols’, ‘Endless Love Knots’ and ‘Duo Bands’ concepts. An eternal token of love!
- · Infinity Symbols – Can you think of a better way to celebrate vows that will last forever than with platinum infinity symbol rings? The metal and the design will speak for your everlasting love.
- · Love Knots have been a unique symbol of love since the beginning of time. So if you are looking for something that ties the two of you together for an eternity, this might be the perfect choice for you.
- · Duo Bands are complimentary rings – one for each of you. Think of them as a beautiful echo of a shared bond.
The new platinum jewellery range of chain and pendants, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and bangles has taken cues from the current international trends and then adapted it as per the Indian culture, attitude and lifestyle. The designs have been inspired by three themes for this year: ‘Naturally Chic’, ‘Subtle Statements’ and ‘Nouveau Tradition’.
- · Naturally Chic: Sublime nature embraces beautiful motifs of flowers, leaves and natural foliage. The collection brings this abundant energy to life with a modern twist on nature, with unconventional forms, clean-cut lines and textures sustaining the innate beauty of each piece.
- · Subtle Statements: Subtlety is rare and so is platinum, one of the rarest metals in the world. ‘Less is more’ only works when it involves the best of materials as it reflects highest quality and finish. The minimalistic platinum designs mark inner strength and understated elegance that comes from wearing a little of the very best.
- · Nouveau Tradition: How do you strike that ever-elusive balance between tradition and modernity? There are a set of designs that merge these two themes beautifully in a modern precious metal to make it relevant to the Indian woman’s sense of fusion dressing.
