Jewellery masterpieces. Paraiba tourmaline necklace by Giampiero Bodino

Thursday, March 19, 2015

Necklace by Giampiero Bodino The magnificent cascades of sea green and blue African Paraiba tourmalines were directly inspired by Bodino's summer swims in Sardinia. "I was brought a box of blue and green precious stones and fell in love with them all," says Bodino of the birth of this necklace. "I just wanted to dive into these stones like the sea. So I mixed the different hues and tones of blue and green, as well as a range of sizes along with rough, cabochon and facetted stones. The result could have been chaotic, but I laid out the stones to create a harmony - an overall balance"

It's a stunning design, I can almost hear the sound of the sea!. I particularly like the mix of cabochon & faceted gemstones.

Another interesting design feature is that the cabs are being held by the claws, so the bezels do not cover them at all. The blue stones look like the drops of water
