Designers, interior or otherwise, get their inspirations from many places. The nexus of my blog has been how my background as an interior designer for 25+ years, has influenced my jewelry designs.

I have had some gorgeous natural pink sapphire slices for quite some time, but just recently decided with Valentine’s Day and Spring on the horizon - it might be a good time to put them to good use. I went to my ideas file and found a folder entitled “Pink”. Within that folder were some stunning rooms that incorporated raspberry pink, frequently married to some type of green.
Although these rooms were all very pretty and would have made a great jumping off point for the necklace design, there was something missing. On a whim, I went to Flickr and typed in Paris gardens, and immediately found the perfect match.

The Paris au Printemps Necklace is composed of beautiful natural pink sapphire slices nestled within little frills of carved peridot leaves, black spinel rondelles, onyx buttons, rock crystal briolette pears and rubellite garnet rondelles. Two hexagon vermeil beads separate the center focal area and segue to the smaller pink sapphires alternating with rock crystal rondelles that lead to the complimenting rectangular vermeil clasp.
The perfect little “Pop of Color” for spring and summer.
