Pearls with a sparkling edge

LEADING Bangkok jeweller Gems Pavilion recently joined with KPN Land in turning its Diplomat 39 sales gallery into a catwalk for its new fine jewellery collection, ‘The Timeless Pearl’.
Valued at more than Bt200 million, the collection was modelled

for invited guests by Chalita “Namtan” Suansane, Miss Thailand Universe 2016, at the launch event dubbed “The Timeless Treasure – A Glittering Afternoon Tea” as “Dao Oke” of KPN Award fame entertained with her powerful yet soothing vocals. 
Pearls have been worn gracefully in every period of the jewellery history. Elegant and stylish, they have a charisma all of their own yet can also be harmoniously mixed and matched with other pieces of jewellery. 
“The Timeless Pearl” collection was inspired by the unique, feminine and opulent style of iconic jewellery pieces from the 1920s combined with modern designs. The highlight is a necklace strung with 581 high-quality Akoya pearls, 346 diamonds and 46 pink diamonds. The matching 18-karat white-gold bracelet boasts 207 Akoya pearls and 547 diamonds. Rings, chandelier earrings with pearls and diamonds that move with the wearer and a floret brooch inspired by the view of a fountain spout from the top complete the set.
“Both KPN and our group share a similar vision and philosophy with regard to quality in every detail and distinctive designs inspired by arts,” says Piya Ahchariyasripong, chief executive officer of Gems Pavilion Group. 
“We believe that pearls should be worn every day and not kept simply for special occasions.”
