The 2004 Hobo
Ballroom Blitz
BALLROOM BLITZ
An abandoned, once ornate ballroom is our playground.
This season, our jewellery designers drew inspiration from the remnants of shattered chandeliers and antique mirrors that once lined the walls, creating an eclectic capsule that pays homage to bygone eras.
Through meticulous use of innovative material treatments, our artisans replicated the timeless allure of vintage treasures using patina-effect glass stones, burnished mixed metal chains, and intertwining them with lustrous pearls.
The beauty of the past, reimagined for the present.
“We envision a shattered chandelier on the dancefloor—its fragments reimagined into opulent jewels. Crafted with patina-effect glass crystals, mixed metal chains and pearls; finished in 14 karat matte gold, and 18 karat blackened gold and silver-toned plating.“
