Bebe Bakhshi — Wed, 03 Jul 2013 08:13:00 +0000

Hi Jewelristas,

I know its been such a long time since the last time I wrote something here, but I was away on vacation for almost 5 weeks, then I had my birthday celebrations and after that I had to move to a new place and you know how packing and unpacking stuff is time consuming and that is the reason why I couldn’t focus on what I want to write about my birthday gift. I know I didn’t write anything about the Cannes Film Festival but if you have checked my Facebook page, you have seen the fabulous pieces already, if not here is the link for all the red carpet photos of 2013:

Stefano Canturi Journey “An Exhibition of artworks over 25 years”

Bebe Bakhshi — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 00:50:00 +0000

Hi Jewelristas,

Last night I participated at the opening night of Stefano Canturi exhibition in Melbourne.

The exhibition show cases some of the very famous designs, the original sketches and drawings that Stefano did over the years. As always the pieces were stunning and the history behind each piece as well as the amazing drawings were mesmerizing.

The exhibition is located on fortyfive Flinders Lane and will be on from February 19th – March 2nd, so if you happen to be in the city that’s definitely a must see.

Here are some photos from the exhibition and I do hope that you enjoy it as much as I did.

Hey Everyone

I am back and not going to talk about how much I missed writing here but

I couldn’t as I was spending splendid time with my family who were visiting me and not

going to mention that I have lots of gorgeous jewelry that can’t wait to share them with you!

As the very first step, lets go back to the one of the last posts I did on my favourite

colored gems, Yellow!

I have recently encountered with an astonishing jeweler who have a taste of Old style/Vintage

for their designs and that just make me crazy for the styles I am going to share!

Louis Newman & Co is established in 1984 in New York and since then became one of the most

renowned NY jewellers due to the unique designs and GIA certified stones that they used.

For those of you who are fan of my Facebook page, you most probably saw the “SUN” that

I shared, if not check it here!

Now check some of their fascinating designs which can simply blew

your mind away in a Yellow way….

I might receive more pictures which I will share ASAP

Enjoy

Chaumet Blue or Royal Blue?

Bebe Bakhshi — Fri, 22 Jul 2011 00:23:00 +0000

Good Morning Jewelristas from sunny but cold Melbourne!

Today I am going to talk about history!

welcome to France back in 1780 when Napoleon was the Emperor and our

sweet Josefine was love of his life and Empress! Before Napoleon take over

the power, Queen Marie Antoinette was reflection of beauty & style.

Marie-Etiene Ninot was working with one of Marie Antoinette jewellers and

that way he quickly built up an aristocrat clientèle and managed to open his

own shop. After the French revolution, he became Napoleon personal jeweller.

He designed the consular sword set with famous Regent diamond which weighs 140

carats as well the Crown jewels for the coronation.Ninot and son were succeeded by

talented workshop formen: Fossin, Morel & Chaumet!

Though Fossin (Artist Jeweller) & Morel (Ambassador of Style) had some significant

effect of jewellery design but Joseph Chaumet was the Master of Tiara!

Chaumet Tiaras soon became favourite of Royal & aristocrat clientèle and he opened his

boutique at 12 Place Vendome in 1907. He succeeded with his son Marcel and after that

by Jaque & Pierre Chaumet.

Now do your remember Blues???

Blue is the color for royal family and now I am sharing Chaumet master blues with you.

Enjoy
