Fauna & Flora Celebration Collection

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.
Pearls, Tsavorites, Rubies, Sapphires, Diamonds and other precious gemstones are prominently used in our creations.

Type of shell |
: |
Mother-of-Pearl is produced by the Pinctada maxima mollusk ~ the South Sea pearl oyster
They are currently cultured in areas throughout the Indian and Pacific Oceans, primarily in Indonesia, Australia and the Philippines.
These waters are the native habitat of a large oyster known as Pinctada maxima. This oyster grows up to 12 inches in diameter and is much larger than other saltwater oysters
There are two varieties of Pinctada maxima, the silver-lipped and the gold-lipped. The two are distinguished by their distinct coloration of the outer edge of the interior. This type of shell is known as Mother-of-Pearl and is responsible for the coloration of the cultured pearls produced, therefore the name.
