today’s inspiration_dans l’intimité de Vever, bijoux et objets d’art depuis 1821_Maison Vever_Paris_France

Diamond Dynamite

After a sweet sleep the House VEVER, one of the most brilliant jewellery makers back in the Art Nouveau movement, is reviving its rich heritage and philosophy praising the woman, the flora and the fauna. Today the 7th generation of the Vever family still designs a naturalist inspired jewellery with enchanted and virtuous creations while adapting its materials to the environmental and societal challenges of the 21 century society.

It is in the intimacy of this House that I was invited to dive into its history and to discover its fantastical and naturalistic universe, where creative audacity and artistic prowess are at the heart of a new jewellery.

Merci Victoire and team 💎

… The French are glad to die for love
They delight in fighting duels
But I prefer a man who lives
And gives expensive jewels

… A kiss on the hand
May be quite continental
But diamonds are a girl’s best friend

… A kiss may be grand
But it won’t pay the rental
On your humble flat
Or help you at the automat

… Men grow cold 
As girls grow old
And we all lose our charms in the end

… But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don’t lose their shape
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend

… Tiffany’s
Cartier
Black Starr
Frost Gorham
Talk to me Harry Winston
Tell me all about it

… There may come a time 
When a lass needs a lawyer
But diamonds are a girl’s best friend

… There may come a time
When a hard-boiled employer
Thinks you’re awful nice
But get that ice or else no dice

… He’s your guy 
When stocks are high
But beware when they start to descend

… It’s then that those louses
Go back to their spouses
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend

… I’ve heard of affairs
That are strictly platonic
But diamonds are a girl’s best friend

… And I think affairs 
That you must keep liaisonic
Are better bets 
If little pets get big baguettes

… Time rolls on
And youth is gone
And you can’t straighten up when you bend

… But stiff back 
Or stiff knees
You stand straight at Tiffany’s

… Diamonds
Diamonds
I don’t mean rhinestones
But diamonds are a girl’s best 
Best friend
