Paspaley presents poetic renditions of Arabic-inspired designs

Inspired by traditional Arabic motifs, these jewels exude the flavour of the Middle East and are sumptuous creations that are both show stopping and fetching.

"In a journey that began over 70 years ago, Paspaley has evolved into a jeweller of prowess that never ceases to delight lovers of jewellery. Its latest creations prove its effortless mastery once again. Exquisitely finished and bringing together only the most precious materials, these jewels pay tribute to the rich heritage of Arabia. They are sure to be adored by women of discerning taste in the region and elsewhere," said Tawhid Abdullah, Managing Director of Damas.

The mark of a brilliant jeweller is judged by the pliancy with which material yield to the demands of his vision and concept. In Paspaley's 2007-2008 collection, this is on superb display in creations endowed with the finest finish. This draws inspiration from the perfect orb and luminescence of its sumptuous South Sea pearls.

The stunning drop earrings which can be easily hooked on to the ears feature a spade-like design fashioned in white gold that is closely ringed by a row of diamonds and in turn dangling its precious focal point, a large South Sea pearl. While one version holds turquoise in its design, with the blue of the gem off-setting the silvery white of the metal, the other displays just the charming outline of the motif.

The collections other offerings include striking and unusual pendants resembling the turbans of yore. Paspaley's designers play with inspiration and material to offer different options such as turquoise accented and mother-of-pearl enriched pendants outlined by rows of choice diamonds. Each holds three South Sea pearls or one single pearl with diamonds on either side. What makes these pendant-chains eye catching is the slimness and vertical drop of the chain contrasting sharply with the horizontal pattern of the pendant.

Paspaley has always delighted its fans with the inspiration of its creations. Its 2007-2008 collection is a brilliant treatise to the cultural vibrancy of Arabia, in turn offering women the world over, ravishing pieces of adornment.
