Turquoise Jewelry from Di Modolo, De Grisogono, John Hardy

Turquoise Jewelry from Di Modolo, De Grisogono, John Hardy

A burst of interest in turquoise jewelry is occurring this year with several different luxury jewelry designers by introducing a few choice jewelry items set with turquoise. Each designer creates jewelry with a different style, feel and mood. For this reason, the jewelry creates a cohesive balance rather than competing against each other. Each designer creates a niche for the jewelry style giving each piece an appropriate time and place.

Italian designer Di Modolo has had turquoise jewelry in the Favola collection for some time. In this collection, turquoise is held by bars of white gold or yellow gold set with diamonds. These Di Modolo pieces have a medieval feel with a contemporary style. De Grisogono showcases turquoise on white gold, with diamonds, or rubies and emeralds. These couture rings and bracelets represent high craftsmanship especially in setting techniques. Like all of the de Grisogono jewelry, the turquoise pieces have rhythmic movement and are seductively entrancing. John Hardy pairs turquoise with his signature metal of choice – sterling silver – and makes pieces that have an exotic and even ethnically rich aesthetic. With designs and jewelry making techniques inspired by the Balinese culture, his jewelry is a marriage of old world custom and new age intrigue.


For those who thought turquoise jewelry was not fashionable, allow Di Modolo, de Grisogono and John Hardy to persuade you otherwise. They can be easily convincing.
