As much as we love the skyline, the islands, and dim sum, nothing compares with a visit to master jewelers Forms Jewellery . The founders, Tzvika Janover and Elad Assor, are no strangers to exceptional stones, coming from multi-generational families of diamond cutters. Recently, Gilly Strauss joined the executive team as CEO, bringing over 18 years of experience in luxury brand building and value creation to the Forms Family. No strangers to the FORMS brand, we excitedly planned to spend time in the FORMS Hong Kong workshop, eager to learn more about this extraordinary jeweler.

Before we share our experiences with you, lets backtrack a moment to understand why we are so passionate about this brand. Bear in mind that we spend all day every day viewing exceptional jewelry. Yet nothing ever prepares us for the thrill of seeing a new FORMS creation. Each piece is one of a kind, hand crafted, and includes diamonds and gemstones rarely seen elsewhere. Over and above this…it’s all about the design! A FORMS piece can be held from any angle, and the beauty will still captivate you. The details are astounding, and the brand strives to “seek perfection in every imaginable detail of every piece, calling them works of patience”.

The artisans in the workshop patiently handcraft the creations, turning exceptional designs into flawless pieces of jewelry. The design and production artisans work seamlessly together painstakingly handcrafting each step of the process. The resulting pieces are perfect for the FORMS woman, who is as individual, unique, and stylish as the FORMS jewelry she wears. Through the years the design team have evolved the FORMS signature, but the commitment to selecting unusual gemstones and working with precision cut diamonds (diamonds that are custom cut for a specific piece) remains constant.

With only 100 new pieces created each year, FORMS strive to make sure every design counts. The new FORMS collection is based on the ELEMENTS and subtly conveys images of fire, ice,earth and water.  First we saw the earrings, which are detailed, light, flexible, and elegant.

“DIAMOND CHANDELIERS” BY FORMS, REPRESENTING FIRE AND ICE: The earrings have a sense of weightlessness and light, and are exceptionally flexible, gently swaying with every movement! The design team worked hard to make sure they used the least amount of gold possible – when it comes to earrings, a few grams can make all the difference. The earrings are designed to be both statement pieces and exceedingly wearable. Wear them every day with ease…or on the red carpet with confidence!

In addition to the earrings, we saw several new rings that are part of the new collection. We saw designs that have been influenced by both floral (earth) and fire (flame) elements. The new rings all have clean continuous lines, a look only achievable by hand carving each piece until it is exactly right.

People are presented with perfume, gloves, sweaters, and cell phones. In fact, there is a very wide variety of gifts one would consider. But, from all the options you have, unless you are getting them a new car, there is one which stands out and will always be remembered. That’s right, we are talking high-end diamond jewelry!

Leibish & Co Fancy Color Diamonds

Color is a big factor in choosing what you think works best. Think of colors they are particularly drawn to, colors they like to wear, or perhaps a color that will represent their personality. In addition to the remarkable beauty the colors show, there is a deep meaning in every color that exists. For example, red symbolizes ambition, strong will, and passion. Blue represents nobility and strength, while green symbolizes safety, harmony and growth. A popular color choice for diamonds is yellow as they symbolize joy, happiness, and intellect. If you aren’t sure what color they would enjoy best, choose a colored diamond that represents what you love most about their personality!

Jewelry Styles

Of course it’s important when choosing a jewelry piece for your loved one to keep in mind what you think they might like. Since they will be the one wearing this piece for many more years to come, it’s important that the jewelry reflects their personality and taste. One can never go wrong with a classic style, comprised of stunning styles of jewelry that will never go out of trend.

So now that you have decided that diamond jewelry is unquestionably the best present to give this holiday season, the question that remains now is what kind of jewelry?

For a person with simple tastes, perhaps they will enjoy heart shaped jewelry, to remind them of how much you love them. One of the many benefits of a simple piece of jewelry is that you can wear it every single day. They don’t need to ever take off their jewelry and it works with just about any type of outfit they would wear.

If your loved one is bold, consider a fine gemstone. These pieces can often be found with a deeper color and a little more presence. For example, a fine piece of emerald jewelry will be exactly what they are looking for. The stunning shade of emerald green will be sure to turn heads.

Lastly, if you are in the market for something extraordinarily rare, take a look at some Argyle Diamond jewelry. These pieces include the most spectacular and exclusive pink diamonds that exist. One thing you can be absolutely sure of is that no one else will have a piece like it.
