A relatively new brand, Trésor makes up for its young age with a wealth of original, contemporary, and colourful designs.

“Designing jewellery is not only my heritage, it is my passion,” says Puja Bordia, the owner and creative spirit behind Trésor (French for “Treasure).” It’s an apt title, because opening Trésor’s collections is like opening a treasure chest filled with luxurious jewellery.

This year at the Couture show, Trésor is expanding its Fin (“delicate”) collection, comprised of delicate and feminine pieces, with the launch of a stunning new line of jewellery made from the exotic and unusual watermelon tourmaline and diamonds.

Also new at Couture this year is the Men’s Cufflink Line as well as new pieces in the Interchangeable line, which is “designed for fashion-savvy women who want versatile jewellery they can wear in different colours or in different styles,” explains the designer. These pieces are composed of earrings and pendants where the drops can be interchanged according to the desire of the wearer.

Additions will also be seen in the brand’s other collections, which include Dazzle, Bellezza, Logo, Soie, and Silver. True to its name, the Dazzle Collection dazzles with the finest gemstones in various shapes, sizes, and cuts in unusual settings, often one-of-a-kind pieces. In Bellezza, colourful beads and baroque shapes are used to create playful pieces. In Logo, the brand’s logo (inspired by ancient Celtic knots) is used in a variety of openwork creations with various finishes. Jewellery in the Soie (“silk”) line has a silky, soft, and sensuous feel about it, while the more casual Silver pieces are composed of various necklaces made with coloured gems.

Clearly, Trésor offers a wide range of designs at excellent price points, ranging from $350 to $35,000. And, also very importantly, Bordia insists on high quality in all her pieces. How to ensure high quality and affordable luxury? “We buy the rough, cut the stones, and manufacture everything in-house in our factory India, where our dedicated team checks quality all along the way,” explains the GIA-graduate, who herself was born and raised in Jaipur and comes from a long line of respected jewellers. “Every single piece is meticulously crafted with exceptional attention to design and detail.”

With her inspiration coming from a variety of artistic expressions found in nature, the gemstones themselves, architecture, paintings and sculptures, it‘s no wonder that Trésor’s pieces have been seen on the Red Carpet, adorning such stars as Paris Hilton, Catherine Zeta Jones, Katy Perry, Selena Gomez, Rose McGown, Ashley Benson, and Ana de la Reguera, to name but a few. They recognize the talents of Trésor’s young designer and the treasure chest of beautiful jewellery that she creates.
