Marco Bicego’s Paradise Collection

May 2009


Marco Bicego, the world renowned Italian jewellery house which burst upon the jewellery scene less than a decade ago and is hailed for its ability to redefine ‘everyday luxury’ presents interesting propositions in its lyrical Paradise collection.

Blending delicate 18k yellow gold chains with his signature hand engraved gold beads, South Sea pearls and colourful gems of every hue the visionary designer comes up with yet another iconic collection to win women over in whimsical options for casual, day as well as evening allure.

Marco Bicego said: “The Paradise collection is defined by a flowing, cascading quality to it, enriched by a colourful blend of gemstones and hand engraved gold beads. Bicego fans would be interested to know that Paradise is a collection inspired by the sun’s reflection in the sparkling waters of the Mediterranean Sea when I was swimming there during one of my trips.”

Bicego’s jewellery has an emotive quality to it that’s immediately discernible to the viewer, and each handcrafted piece in the Paradise collection exudes this quality. As a term denoting a faraway land where one is free of all cares, ‘Paradise’ instantly recalls such aspects like bliss, ‘Seventh Heaven’ and ecstasy. And Bicego effortlessly translates his experience in Paradise’s glittering array of jewels by infusing a carefree, gypsy-charm to jewels of tactile joy that are simply irresistible.

Paradise has a poetic, flowing quality to it resembling water droplets strung on a thread, which shimmer as they catch the play of sunlight. In Paradise, Bicego immortalises the imagery with a rich, luminous array of multihued semi-precious stones such as amethysts, citrines, garnets, blue topaz, rose quartz, along with gleaming freshwater pearls and his signature hand engraved gold beads which play water droplets and strings them on delicate gold chains.
