NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE VALUE OF OUR JEWELLERY

My philosophy around jewellery must have started
from very early childhood. In my possession I
have precious little keepsakes that are reminders
of very special people and moments in my life.
These tiny objects are filled with a deep sense
of belonging, love and connection. The range of
my personal jewellery collection is neither
extensive or exceptionally expensive, but it is a
gallery of cultural diversity and design that
captivated my imagination. It also seems it is a
tradition in my family as I sit here writing
wearing my Great Grandmother's 21st birthday
diamond ring.

• While I feel connected to my own past, the
  antique jewellery connects me to imaginary
  stories of their previouslives, these
  antiques survived the two world wars. They have
  hallmarks from their makers. And, they have
  travelled oceans as well as time.

I particularly love gemstone jewellery
(surprise), I have a tiny Turquoise stone set in
a divine Native American design Silver, it now
fits my pinky finger. I love the craftsmanship of
a peacock blue Cloisonne Bangle from Singapore.
And importantly, both were gifts from my father
when I was a child. They remind me of our home
erupting with excitement after his long awaited
return from business trips (usually around 3
weeks which was an eternity as a kid).

Simply, jewellery connects us, I believe women
love it because it is beautiful but we're also
very sentimental creatures and our devotion to
jewellery is embedded deep within our psyche.
Ever lost a piece? A piece that holds sentimental
value? It's torture. From my heart, I believe
there is great value in the connection to
jewellery and worth investing just a little bit
more in getting natural gemstones, precious
metals that will last a lifetime and bring so
much joy.
