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 |
: |
Pinctada margaritifera ~ Black-lip Pearl Oyster
Pinctada margaritifera, commonly known as the black-lip pearl oyster, is a species of pearl oyster, a saltwater clam, a marine bivalve mollusk in the family Pteriidae. This species is common in the Indo-Pacific within tropical coral reefs.
The ability of P. margaritifera to produce pearls means that the species is a valuable resource to humans. The oysters are harvested wild from coral reefs and are also commonly grown in aquaculture, both primarily taking place in the Indo-Pacific region.
The common name of this species refers to the black coloring along the margins of the interior of the shell. Externally the shell is dark grayish brown or green, though white spots are common across the shell. Adults usually reach between 20 and 25 cm (7.9 and 9.8 inches) in height.
