Before choosing a direction.
Should I start with a single colour or a mixed palette?
The Spectrum Necklace offers a sequence of different coloured stones; the Jewel Garland Necklace combines emerald, citrine and amethyst. The Sapphire Circles Necklace and Crimson Cascade Necklace give more concentrated blue or red directions. Choose a reference for its colour relationships, then consider its silhouette separately.
How do collar, bib and drop compositions change the design brief?
A wide composition spreads the stones across the neckline; a central drop gives the eye a vertical focus. Compare where the archive pieces are widest and where their principal stones sit. Neckline preferences and the intended occasion can help the atelier understand the proportions you want.
Are the pink stones in every necklace pink sapphires?
No. The Aurora de Rosée Necklace identifies pink sapphire, whereas the Pink Cascade and Pink Plume records use “pink gem”. Keep that distinction when comparing the works or referring to them in an enquiry.
For pricing, materials and timing, read about the commission process and speak with the atelier about your own brief.
