Ruby Red Choice pickings by "The Sparrow Girl" Ruby red and lilac pink, oval and pear cut zircon, charm a Paquin clad damsel of 1912. Black rhodium studded outline of earrings synchronize with the stylized strokes of Art Deco artist Georges Barbier. Silk and sparkles best adorn a lady, why even the birds are bedazzled! _ _ _ #swaronnahjewellery #swaronnahbling #georgesbarbier #artdecotextiles #paquin #artdecolover #vintageinspired #zirconearrings #redandpink #colourcombogirl #alwaysstylish #sterlingsilverearrings #vintage #fashionillustration #jewelrydesigner

Cluster Anonymity is fascinating. This 1934 work called "Leaping Gazelle" perhaps somewhere in an enchanted forest, exudes a sublime palette of muted tones. Cluster of pearls with orange and purple pretty up this mostly green space. Add lace and silk and it turns into a romantic start to what could be the perfect high tea ensemble. I will always wonder who the artist was! _ _ _ #swaronnahjewellery #pearlcluster #swaronnahsparkler #sterlingsilver #purpleturquoise #orangeandpurple #artdecoart #mutedtones #chiccolors #laceandpearls #colourcombo #vintageinspired #jewelrydesigner

Amber Opaque, transparent and milky come together in a trio. I found the 3 Onyx and garnet studded pieces in a vintage store in the "Zaveri Bazar' of Mumbai. I paired them with 2 batches of honey and ochre amber beads. As Bordeaux born Parisian designer, it isn't surprising that Paule Marrot's work included countryside themes of flowers and butterflies. Popular for her cheerful 2D illustrations, she compliments my Onyx and amber necklace to a tee. Is it any wonder that this merrily boating couple are framed in a 1942 print called "The Happy Isle" _ _ _ #swaronnahjewellery #paulemarrot #onyxnecklace #onyxstuds #silverset #amberbeads #oversizeearrings #garnet #blackandyellow #oneofakind #blackandberry #colourcombo #foundandgathered #alwaysstylish #jewelrydesigner

Pattern Any print with butter cream or straw yellow looks so summer. Throw in a bit of royal blue or green and it becomes mediterranean chic A pair of iridescent studs pretty up a backdrop by Maurice & Adam Vernuel from their "Kaleidoscope" prints. Angles and lines always make the best form of contrast. Yes, it's Artdeco again! _ _ _ #pearlstuds #swaronnahjewellery #emeraldcut #greenzircon #girlychic #sterlingsilverjewelry #artdecolove #anglesandlines #summerpalette #strawyellow #chicearrings #vintageinspired #loveprints #jewelrydesigner

Turquoise Tamara De Lempicka's work portrays a a great deal of empowerment. Decked in luxe retail, driving fancy cars and self assured for some of the independently wealthy women, were the changes that marked their renewed status in Art Deco society. This 1925 self portrait in a Bugatti reveals her confidence and style. For us women, we owe so much to the generations of heroines from all walks of life that lead us to the freedom we enjoy today. These pink and blue earrings humbly encapsulate that kind of power and poise. _ _ _ #tamaradelempicka #turquoiseearrings #swaronnahjewellery #artdecolover #sterlingsilverjewelry #pinkandblue #pinkzircon #fancycut #alwaysstylish #jewelrydesigner #artdecoinspired #vancitygirl

Pearl A 1930's poster for Chemin de Fer du Nord, in a modern graphic illustration of angles and lines depicting train transportation. Soft lustred pearls of sparkling accents in curves contrast beautifully. A jumpsuit in charcoal, beige and powder blue in crisp raw silk or two tone organza would make for a chic outfit for these beauties. Glossy gold pointed toe stilettos for a sharp finish! _ _ _ #amcassandre #artdecoposter #swaronnahjewellery #pearlearrings #sterlingsilverjewelry #greyblue #colourlithograph #outfitideas #pearlsareforever #fashionandjewels #alwaysstylish #artdecoinspired #jewelrydesigner

Dazzle I keep swinging between the old and new worlds. Don't we all sometimes have this unexpected, unspoken link with a certain era? We see something and it triggers a connection....that's what happens every time I see anything from the 20's & 30's This is the grand salon on the ocean liner "Normandie" jointly designed in extravagance by Dunand and Jean Dupas. This salon was decorated in large lacquered panels of Egyptian theme. The sway of this green bling mimics the high society bustle below. Almost like the men in long tail tuxedos. _ _ _ #jeandupas #swaronnahjewellery #zirconearrings #greenbling #sterlingsilverjewelry #fancycut #graphicillustration #1930s #normandie #colorlithograph #artdecolover #frenchdesigner #inspired #jewelrydesigner

Pearlesque Something about the iridescence of a pearl or anything that emulates that effect. A 1925 screen depicts just that. This Edgar Brandt panelled design "L'Oasis" is embellished with my favourite motifs of geometric fountains, palm leaves and ornate stylized flora. Incredible that it's cast in brass and iron. The pearl and bling ear studs sit elegant atop the Art Deco piece. Now if I could just find a time machine! _ _ _ #artdecoobsessed #edgarbrandt #metalsmith #swaronnahjewellery #pearlearstuds #sterlingsilverearrings #artdecoscreen #ornatedesign #pearlsareagirlsbestfriend #elegant #inspired #jewelrydesigner

Lemon Yellow I'm reminded of southern Italy's Amalfi Coast where cliffs are dotted with lemon trees and the calm mediterranean sea, a deep blue. This 1922 print by Alberto Lorenzi titled "A Walk In The Park" sparks off an outfit of zesty yellow lace maxi, sapphire blue jewels and tahitian pink flowers in a 60's style bouffant. Ready for a summer garden party! _ _ _ #swaronnahjewellery #ovalcabochon #bluezircon #regaldesign #outfitideas #sterlingsilvernecklace #artdecolove #yellowandblue #gardeninspired #albertolorenzi #artdecotextiles #vintageinspired #jewelrydesigner

Royal Blue This 1920 Michel Dubost textile print "The Bowl" is on the most perfect cerulean blue background. It reminds me of The Devil Wears Prada scene, when Meryl Steep replies to Anne Hathaway's comment "stuff" Absolutely hilarious and kinda true. The Royal blue zircon oval cabochon earrings distinguish the two blues. Tropical leaf silhouettes and fruit bowl make a most unique and modern print. A nude/blush pink tulle, or beaded chiffon shimmer dress would go well with this classic design. _ _ _ #swaronnahjewellery #bluezircon #ovalcabochon #sterlingsilverjewelry #micheldubost #fruitbowl #leafsilhouette #textiledesign #artdecolove #ceruleanblue #jewelrydesigner #vintageinspired

Fans! Being a fan of Artdeco, I clubbed my multicolour creations with this stunning 1925 pattern by Margeurire Panagon. A design for a velvet coat, of a groovy palette of lavender, purple, turquoise, teal, tangerine, ochre and sienna. My 'Ballerina' brooches alongside in mint, pink, saffron and ebony. In modern times Prada, Missoni and Etro often imbibe such vintage colour schemes. Did list enough colours? _ _ _ #colourismything #brooches #fandesign #swaronnahjewellery #sterlingsilverbrooch #enameling #swaronnahballerina #artdecotextiles #colourobsession #zircon #inspired #accessories #jewelrydesigner #alwaysstylish

Spring It doesn't feel like it yet, so am waiting to try out these new spring makeup goodies inspired by the lovely @pixiwoos tutorial- Iridescent gold beige and coral pink blush. I would pair this scrumptious mango shade lipstick and a splash of turquoise and purple accessories. _ _ _ #macspring2017 #jameskaliardos #swaronnahjewellery #makeup #coralpink #irridescent #facekit #moonsofsaturn #yellowyoudare #yellowlipstick #sterlingsilverjewelry #alwaysstylish #complementarycolors #colourobsession #jewelrydesigner #vancitygirl

Anonymous This pastoral scene of a pair of stallion and mare from 1928 is sadly, unsigned. It frames these mini studs of sapphire blue emerald cut zircon outlined with round white ones. Make up in these warm hues of gold and tan shadows, Tahitian pink lips and dewy skin would be a perfect compliment to the pearls. _ _ _ #pearlearrings #swaronnahjewellery #sterlingsilverjewelry #bluezircon #earstuds #artdecobackground #pastoralscene #bluegoldpink #pearlsareagirlsbestfriend #jewelrydesigner #vancitygirl

Lozenges Before Don Drapper there was Leonetto Cappiello! This 1930's poster ad of a 1880's brand of liquorice 'Cachou Lajaunie' aptly captures it's target market. Smokers were stylish but definitely needed breath freshners, much like the size of these mini pearl studs. A yellow and red polo neck would look smashing with ruby and pearl. _ _ _ #leonettocappiello #1930sad #swaronnahjewellery #pearlandruby #redzircon #cachoulajaunie #redwhiteyellow #sterlingsilverearrings #earstuds #alwaysstylish #jewelrydesigner #vancitygirl

Classic Before Vogue, there was Gazette du Bon Ton, the high society magazine of the roaring twenties. Here, Leon Bakst captures one of the four Callot sisters who owned a couture fashion house in 1920's. Everything about this illustration is classic and chic, Marthe's haircut, hat, dress! These earrings would shine on the promenade with a straw yellow summer dress and espadrille wedges. _ _ _ #artdecoobsessed #leonbakst #swaronnahjewellery #roaring20s #gazettedubonton #callotsoeurs #fashionillustration #bluezircon #rosecut #sterlingsilverjewelry #alwaysstylish #jewelrydesigner #vancitygirl
