The Avant Garde and Everyday Edit:
|
Hello Magpies: Baroque Rocks is back after somewhat of a hiatus, call it a studious sabbatical whilst lucubrating the 13+ subject range!!! Facts of fascination punctuated the assiduous cramming such as the meaning of a zygote and our favourite gilded nugget… proper breaking news stuff: the discovery that we all have Gold, yes that’s right Gold, percolating around our heart and brain!! Not surprising then that we are so attracted to it; that, or if we were to coin a recent research paper’s gimlet one liner regarding governmental “fiscal incontinence; it is not surprising that the price of Gold continues to rise!” So ever being one to help out, our free styling into Autumn means audacious, Boho Baroque Rocks’-arama with an Edit of off-beat investment jewels which are pure ‘corp-core’: avant garde and every day!

Shimmying on with our oceanic tones, we have a spruced-up refresh of a mega cocktail, ‘Chanel-ing’ the Baroque Collection in which we have swapped multi-hued gemstones for oceanic Blue Topazes juxtaposed with ultra marine blue Sapphires!! A ‘True Blue’ Madonna era enticing cocktail ring. Circa 1980s…

And then we dive further into Autumnal azure tones with this Diamond and Blue Sapphire Hyper Statement Ring! Swaggeringly Seventies; scene stealing square-fully so; shanked up chunked up siren that soulfully strengthens the spirit!! You’re Welcome! |

Segueing on but staying with the trending tropes of Seventies square sizzlers, this necklace is a perfect paean to Modernism!! An oxymoron of opulence with organic flowing yet sumptuously sculptured gold, punctuated with four smouldering white-hot Diamonds!!! Radical freedom to deck up one’s decolletage!! |

In a non-sequitorial vibe shift we were slightly in a “Corundum” as to whether we included this beauty! And include it we have, as Dior advocates that hot fuchsia is seriously in for A/W24!!! Dated for 1995 this “Bombé-bastic” Ruby festooned ring with its insouciant touch of cyclamen sure does sing! “Tell me fantastic!” |

Lastly, we have a dose of refined rebellion with two absolute rock ‘n’ roll ‘funkstar’ rings. The ALIAS Carnival collection was created in 2011 by the genius jeweller to the stars that is Theo Fennell!! Rebelliously chunky and sexy as hell, these enamel-worked Silver knuckledusters, each set with a “sugarloaf” cut cabochon whopper of an Amethyst and Yellow Quartz are effortlessly punk-ass cool! Styled as a Signet ring or flaunted on any digit for delicious decadence! So, there you have it, Baroque Rocks has delivered on a swathe of asset classes providing one with endless versatility not to mention options on effortlessly going between The City on a colourful carousel of coruscating “corp-core” to let’s say the much-feted reopening of Tramp! In short, it’s all about tailored bejewelled solutions! |
