“…13 December 2024, Bang Pa-In Palace: The illustrious annual showcase of haute joaillerie reaches a new zenith with the debut of the “AMOUR ÉTERNEL HAUTE JOAILLERIE COLLECTION.” This extraordinary collaboration between SIRIVANNAVARI and Thailand’s esteemed jewellery house, BEAUTY GEMS, marks a significant milestone in luxury craftsmanship. Designed by Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana Rajakanya, Creative Director of SIRIVANNAVARI, this fourth collection of high jewellery presents over 60 meticulously crafted masterpieces. Each piece narrates an enchanting tale of love, nature, and the pinnacle of artisanal expertise…”
Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari continues to build on the themes of love and legacy introduced in her acclaimed “Heirloom of Elegance” collection from 2023. Reflecting on her creative vision, Her Royal Highness remarked:
"Each piece in this collection is timeless and one-of-a-kind, showcasing intricate details and advanced techniques that exemplify the exceptional craftsmanship of Thai artisans. From gem carving to sophisticated faceting and delicate pavé settings, every element is designed to achieve the highest standards of quality and artistry."
The collection is not merely a celebration of exquisite jewellery but also an ode to Thailand’s rich artisanal heritage. Rare and exceptional gemstones, paired with flawless diamonds, have been curated to create designs that cater to a variety of occasions. These timeless pieces are envisioned to be cherished heirlooms, treasured and passed down through generations. The “AMOUR ÉTERNEL” collection embodies a seamless blend of elegance and functionality.
Comprising necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings, every piece is meticulously designed to sit comfortably against the skin, offering a balance of lightness and grace. The inspiration for the collection stems from the profound “love for nature,” with designs incorporating motifs of native Thai flowers and Princess Sirivannavari’s favourite blossoms, as well as delicate botanical patterns. Celestial symbols, such as stars and crescent moons, further elevate the designs, alongside iconic emblems of the SIRIVANNAVARI brand—horseshoes and equestrian hooks—reflecting Her Royal Highness’ passion for equestrianism. The signature “S” logo, a hallmark of the brand, is elegantly interwoven throughout the collection, adding a touch of exclusivity to each creation. The “AMOUR ÉTERNEL” collection pays homage to the unparalleled expertise of Thailand’s jewellery artisans. Techniques such as briolette diamond faceting and invisible settings are prominently featured. The latter, which requires extraordinary precision, ensures that gemstones fit seamlessly together without visible prongs, creating a mesmerising effect akin to intricate embroidery. Rare gemstones such as Padparadscha sapphires—renowned for their delicate hues of pink and orange—and vibrant tanzanites further distinguish the collection. These extraordinary stones are paired with exquisitely cut diamonds to form dazzling compositions that are both contemporary and timeless.
"Thailand’s jewellery and gemstone industry plays a vital role in our national economy, earning global recognition for the exceptional skills of our artisans. Collaborating with Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari is an immense honour. It not only elevates the craftsmanship of Thai jewellery to international standards but also positions Thailand as a global hub for fine jewellery."
Highlighting the significance of this collaboration, Mr Suriyon Sriorathaikul, Managing Director of BEAUTY GEMS
