Our celebration collection features vibrant leaves and flowers, as well as captivating creatures, all inspired by nature.
Our passion for flora and fauna motivates us to craft these timeless creations.
Our collection is dominated by perennial favourites like flowers, leaves, and other natural creations.
Our collection has a natural appearance because of the methodical arrangement of colorful gems, carefully selected mother-of-pearl, and stones, which produce a balanced and elegant effect.
One of the most delicate and breathtakingly beautiful creatures in the world flutters into our collection. Some of our most magical jewelry is inspired by the butterfly, which is whimsically colorful and so light and graceful on the wing.

Green Jade Turbo imperialis Shell |
: |
TURBO SHELL ~ Turbo imperialis is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Turbinidae, the turban snails.
T. imperialis is fished commercially for its pearly shell and is often confused with T. marmoratus; both species are known as "the green snail".
The length of the shell varies between 50 mm and 120 mm. The large, solid shell has a globose-conic shape. It is ventricose and imperforate. Its color is green, irregularly mottled and spirally striped with chestnut, closely irregularly striate with the same color. The 6-7 convex whorls show well marked sutures, and numerous conspicuous revolving furrows. The large body whorl is somewhat flattened above. The aperture is subcircular and pearly white within the outer lip is rather thin. The arched columella has a pearly callus, which reappears at the posterior angle. The green parietal wall is nearly devoid of callus. The base of the shell is slightly dilated and scarcely produced.
This marine species occurs off East Africa, Madagascar, and throughout the Indian Ocean.
