Eco Art Parade of Jewelry: Unveiling Treasured Inspirations from Nature

Last friday, at the top level of Ion was a congregation of the media, the tai tais and the royalties. Not many events can boast of such a calibre. Obviously fashionably late were the royalties. By the time they had arrived, guests were a little flushed with champagne and the latest gossips had already been exchanged between lips glossed up with this season's colours by Chanel and ears dripping with diamonds and rubies.

Finally, the royalties arrive... amidst the flashing paparazzi cameras and dazzling diamonds on the Tai Tais, His Serene Highness, Prince Albert II of Monaco unveiled gem studded creations of art inspired by some of natures most treasured bird of flight: The Asiatic Hornbill and the Saker Falcon of UAE.

This Una Energy & Farjam Collection 2010 Eco Art Parade of Jewelry comes under the royal patronage of His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco and His Excellency Sheikh Nahayan Mabarak Al-Nahayan. A fundraising initiative to preserve the treasured feathered creatures on Earth. 35 unique works of jewelry art will be on auction this November 2010.

I have to add that the lavender flavoured marshmallows and the chocolates filled with crackle pop candy were an amazing touch! They even match the colours of the artworks on display!

Kudos to the organisers!

Amongst all the pieces, some sing to me and I have chosen the following pieces to showcase.

This ring is my favourite... it reminds me of the panthere ring that Cartier has done, jusr an updated and refreshed version that is more exotic! I could use a piece of two in my drawer. No fear of anyone wearing the same item at parties for sure!

Imperial jade does not get any better than this. Unfortunately the luminescence of the jade and the green does not come up very well in this picture but in real life, they look simply amazing!
