tying the knot

Posted in Fashion Fab by ukelia on December 6, 2009

In a marriage of fine craftmanship by Lee Hwa Jewellery and spellbinding design by Ashley Isham, an alluring collection of haute jewellery is born.

For the first time, Ashley’s signature draperies and knots are metamorphosed into dazzling, wearable pieces of art for the ears, digits and decolletage, while symbolising a relationship that is tightly held together.

Infinite Passion
What looks similar to a type of the 90s hair clips (similar to this design) is actually two interlocked infinity symbols, where two different personalities meet. It appears dramatic and mysterious at the same time, thanks to the sapphire-set black rhodium juxtaposed against diamond-studded rose gold in a knotted latticework that is quite intriguing. Comes with matching earrings, two pendants, bangle, ring and even cufflinks!

Cascaden
My favourite of the Ashley Isham Collection. Simple, elegant and feminine, this piece looks like it can dress up both a long formal evening gown and a pretty-punk skinny-jeans combo too. Comes in necklace, pendant and brooch variants too.

Knottinghill
“I want to ‘knot’ spend everyday without you. Marry me please.” Hehe. That’s what I see when I look at this ring. Albeit I must say the knot-work looks rather impressive! Like ties that forever bind, will you tie the knot with me? (Wonder if the bf would appreciate something like this..) This motif appears on a pendant, bangle and cufflinks too.
