Haute Jewelry: Misahara Adriatic Collection
Today we’re headed to the Adriatic Sea, the body of water which separates Italy and the Baltic peninsula. The northernmost section of the Mediterranean, the Adriatic is famous for its sparkling blue waters and the gorgeous cities which dot its shores. The new Adriatic Collection by Misahara is the perfect representation of that beauty and glamour, with colorful pieces in turquoise, lapis, diamonds and gold pieces. Here are some of our favorites:
The Nebo moonstone necklace features an oval cabochon of turquoise, lapis and prynite, set in 18 karat yellow gold with a diamond-encrusted toggle clasp.
The Adriana pendant necklace is a freeform tribute to nature, featuring a 250 karat shatukite surrounded by 1.90 karats of white diamonds in an 18 karat yellow gold setting. This pendant is completed by a diamond-encrusted logo detail and an 18 karat gold chain.
The unique San pendant recalls the moss on the shores of the Adriatic, with a faceted 88 karat prasiolite encircled with white diamonds in an 18 karat yellow gold setting. The pendant hangs from a bail encrusted with diamonds on an 18 karat yellow gold link chain.
This piece is from the limited-edition Sahara necklace series, which each feature a tapestry of gemstones. #1 of 8, this piece features hematite and black onyx strands holding an 18 karat rose gold circle set with blue sapphires. From there a single strand of black onyx hangs a pavé multi-gemstone encrusted pod suspended from an 18 karat rose gold pole which allows the pod to turn completely around revealing even more pavé set gemstones, all of which is encircled by an 18 karat rose gold sphere. This piece is completed by an 18 karat rose gold toggle clasp with a diamond encrusted logo detail.
The More necklace is just that, with precious and semi-precious gemstones. The More features squares of lapis stone in 18 karat yellow gold squares surrounded by approximately 3.5 carats of diamonds and approximately 2.5 carats of blue sapphires. Connecting the squares are strands of lapis lazuli and fire opal gemstone beads. This piece is completed by an 18 karat yellow gold chain with a diamond encrusted logo detail.
The Stena drop earrings echo the smoothness of a sea-worn pebble, with six blue chalcedony cabochon gemstones set in 18 karat yellow gold, surrounded by white diamonds.
The Stena drop earrings also come in a sunset-inspired version, with a top cabochon ruby surrounded in white diamonds with three rubellite cabochons hanging beneath, all set in 18 karat yellow gold.
The Pilma series features variations of gemstone colored earrings which represent the sunsets, the waves, the skies and flowers. A single round gemstone encircled with diamonds sits on the earlobe, complemented by dangling gemstones to create movement. The Pilma in blue sapphire and peridot features 48 karats in total gemstone weight, with two very rare, round peridot stones on the top of each earring, surrounded by one carat of white diamonds in an 18 karat yellow gold setting.
The Pilma in blue sapphire features 19 carats of sapphires and approximately once carat of white diamonds all set in 18 karat yellow gold.
The Leotar ring comes in two variations, each with over 3.75 carats of natural champagne diamonds in a pavé setting of 18 karat rose gold. The Leotar also comes in 18 karat yellow gold and 18 karat white gold.
The Talas ring comes in several variations, each featuring a rounded oval gemstone. One version features a 17.47 carat hessonite stone set in 18 karat yellow gold with .80 karats of parabia tourmalines around the mounting. This piece is completed by a wave design etched onto the band.
The Talas also comes in an emerald version, with a 16 karat oval emerald with .75 carats of white diamonds around the mounting, set in 18 karat yellow gold.
The Talasi ring features a somewhat smaller oval than the Talas, with 20.93 karats of blue sapphire surrounded by 0.20 karats of pavé diamonds set in a wave design around the mounting in 18 karat yellow gold.
The Koral ring features variations of two gemstone bands. Each ring varies between half a carat and one carat of gemstones set in either 18 karat yellow gold, 18 karat rose gold or 18 karat white gold.
