My name is Eleonor Picciotto, I am the founder and editor of The Eye of Jewelry (@theiofj ) a digital magazine about the jewelry industry, trends and designers. I am taking over the GemGenève account to introduce my favourite pieces from the fair. Considering this Autumn’s trend, the talented yet over discreet American designer Robert Procop is up to date with his watermelon tourmaline pendant set with a micro line of diamond holding the crystal. As if it was almost deprived of any metal, this necklace is to be worn like a talisman on the skin. #watermelontourmaline #trend #stone #gemgeneve #robertprocop #finejewelry #madeinamerica #geneva #spotted #theiofj #theeyeofjewelry #necklace #diamonds #designer #crystal #energy

In the upcoming weeks, I will be taking over the GemGeneve IG. My name is Eleonor Picciotto, I am the founder and editor of The Eye of Jewelry ( @theiofj ) a digital magazine about the jewelry industry, trends and designers. I will be sharing with you what me and my team have spotted during the first edition of the show last May starting with this Robert Procop necklace. He and his dear friend Angelina Jolie picked together this outstanding pear-shape green beryl mounted on yellow gold with cushion-cut beryls. 100% of the proceeds of the « Style of Jolie » collection will benefit charitable work in building schools and shelters for mothers in need around the world. Stay tuned ... #gemgeneve #jewelry #jewelryshow #robertprocop #angelinajolie #theiofj #theeyeofjewelry #spotted #highjewelry #styleofjolie #necklace #uniquepiece #forcharity

SHADES OF PURPLE AT GEMGENÈVE (4/4) @vivienne.becker When it comes to fashionable purples, they can roll out a ravishing selection, including spectacular sapphires and spinels. “Spinel has an immense range of shades, from purple to violet and mauve to pure red,” explains Markus Wild, who notes that spinels in sizes over 5 carats are rare on the market. “We have single stones and sets in captivating red, but also layouts in the softer shades of violet and mauve. We love spinel because of its intense luminescence. Its brilliance, even in more muted colors, adds a lot of beauty and sophistication to a design.” The Wilds also brought to GemGenève a set of beautiful Brazilian amethysts, in unusual baroque, organic pebble-like cut and form. Anne Wild, marketing manager describes the resurgence of the amethyst, as “A true awakening; like the awakening of Snow White after decades of sleep.” @paulwildgemstones #luxury #jewelry #purple #jewellery #gems #gemstones #geneva #geneve #vintagejewelry #finderskeepers #vintagejewellery #gemshow #seekfindexplore #gemgeneve #jewlleryshow #seekfind #chercheztrouvez #spinels #amethyst #sapphires

SHADES OF PURPLE AT GEMGENÈVE (3/4) @vivienne.becker Through ten generations, traced back to 1660, members of the Wild family have nurtured their passion for colored stones and the art of cutting them. Based near the stone-cutting center of Idar Oberstein in Germany, the company has expanded through the years, with cutting facilities in Germany and Thailand, shares in African mines and offices around the globe. They’ve extended their repertoire of colored gems too, adding to their early specialty of tourmalines and aquamarines, with all varieties and specimens, including, since the 1990s, rubies, emeralds and sapphires. In the same way, they’ve enriched and refined their art of stone cutting to embrace both traditional classic cuts and innovative, modern shapes and styles. @paulwildgemstones Part 4 next week… #luxury #jewelry #purple #jewellery #gems #amethysts #gemstones #geneva #geneve #vintagejewelry #finderskeepers #vintagejewellery #gemshow #seekfindexplore #gemgeneve #jewelleryshow #seekfind #chercheztrouvez
