Good jewellery is like good wine: only the connoisseur can tell the difference. The connoisseur knows that there is no alternative to a good product, and that quality is not mere illusoriness. It is revealed in the thoroughness and years of experience with which the tiniest details are considered and in an unmistakable uniqueness, the personal touch.
The distinctive feature of the new Victor Mayer collection Circles is that it does not utilise fire enamel and guilloche to achieve the radiant vibrancy of colour and ornamentation for which the brand is acclaimed: instead, hand-selected gemstones are arranged in a homogenous concentric pattern that conveys precious elegance and sensual colour in the manner of the Art Décoof the 1920s.
To achieve this effect gemstone cutters and jewel setters have to be in close dialogue with one another in every stage of the work process: firstly, the gemstones have to be cut to the exact fit. Only then can it be determined if they are actually suitable for this select jewellery. Because only stones that harmonise perfectly with regard to colour can be used. The baguette-cut stones that underscore the concentric circular pattern then need to be set expertly into the enclosed setting. Only masters of their subject can achieve this exact precision work. Each craftsman consequently adds their own special skills to this jewellery, in a highly particular manner. And the fruitful dialogue of their knowledge and experience results in the creation of a work of art whose true value can only be appreciated by connoisseurs.
The collection comprises an ingenious, asymmetrical necklace and a ring. The collection is available with blue sapphire, ruby or tsavorite.
