Summer jewelry 2018, all crazy for shells. Not just those that we collect on the beach. Rather than that, they are the beads we wear around neck, wrist and ankle. Small jewels that are inspired by the symbol of the sea par excellence.
Everyone wants them, but how many remember that they have already appeared on Prada’s fall / winter 2017/2018 catwalk. Worn like crew-neck sweater on wool sweaters paired with velvet trousers. An apparent non-sense that has always made Miuccia known for avant-garde and unpredictability.
Beyond Prada, Céline and its small and minimal mother-of-pearl pendants.
But not only branded objects, there are many other companies that propose this trend.
Summer jewelry 2018, what do shells mean?
We can not collect all of the shells on the beach – cit.
so why don’t we wear them ?
The shells have always been used to decorate. They are as small as they are powerful, because of their symbolic value. Mythology tells us that Venus was born from the foam carried to shore on the top of a shell. Each of us has at least one memory associated with these small object. That’s why, it is obvious that we all love them.
Here are two less-known brands that use summer jewelry 2018
Leaving aside Prada, Céline and low cost chains too, here are two unique designers who use shells as a creative motif.
This is the case of Tohum design. Motivated by a true love for beauty of nature, Verda Alaton takes inspiration for her creations. Refined, elegant and sophisticated, they are destined to last much longer than a summer season. Necklaces and bracelets composed of strung shells inspired by the myth of Aphrodite. Rings and earrings with a precious design. Like little chests.
With Australian origin Sarah and Sebastian took the most symbolic shape of the shell and turned it into pendants for earrings and necklaces. Small talismans to be always carried out with us and to entrust all of our dreams.
