Sometimes when you behold a striking piece of jewellery, it’s hard to imagine the role that it might play in your everyday life. Too big? Too lavish? Too precious? Yet the greatest style icons from Diana Vreeland to Iman, from Elizabeth Taylor to Paloma Picasso recognized that one piece of fantastic jewellery will dress you by itself.

That’s how the creative mind behind heritage rich Indian jewellers Aishwarya go about making their dazzling pieces. Exceptional craftsmanship and stones are exalted in designs that use techniques passed down through the centuries. But what marks the brilliant from the average is the artistic use of settings that allow the gems to ‘float’ in curvilinear silhouettes that flatter the human form and combine the intricate with the symbolic.

Imagine an emerald and diamond flower motif collar worn over a simple black roll neck? Sapphire drop earrings with denims and a supple silk Céline shirt or a filigree work cuff casually pushing up a Balenciaga tailored jacket sleeve?

There’s no need to wait for that grand gala - planet earth’s treasures deserve a frequent showing.
