Emeralds and Diamonds: A Bespoke Bridal Jewel, and Family Heirloom to Cherish
“She loves the colour green” said Mr A one day, eyes aglow as he talked about his bride-to-be. He’d come to us in secret; he wanted to be a part of the design process behind what he would come to gift her for their upcoming wedding.
As the conversations unfolded, it became clear that this jewel had to be truly exceptional: a breathtaking Emerald at its heart, organic weaves illuminated with diamonds, and a thoughtful design that could transform in more ways than one.
Transformable: To Shine with on her Wedding Day and Beyond
We began by designing a necklace with versatile elements that the bride could attach and remove with ease. Worn with its exquisite 20-carat Emerald cabochon centrepiece,
the necklace takes on a regal presence, befitting a radiant bride on her wedding day.
Styled without its Emerald pendant, the jewel turns into a full diamond necklace with an organic, flowing form that complements almost any neckline effortlessly.
Finally, for its most understated iteration: Mrs A's Emerald pendant may also be paired with a gold chain for absolute ease of wear and styling.
A Final Touch: Emerald Earrings
To complete the wedding trove of jewels, Emerald Earrings inspired by the necklace’s form were designed to echo its graceful silhouette and bring the ensemble together in perfect harmony. The pair of earrings features a total of 3.55 carat Emeralds, and similar to its necklace counterpart, they may also be removed to become Diamond studs.
Behind The B.P. de Silva Design: At the Craftsman’s Bench
Bespoke services at B.P. de Silva typically span approximately 8–12 weeks. From initial ideation to the final unveiling, with timelines varying depending on the complexity of each creation.
Every stage requires time and care to perfect. From sketching and modelling to carving, meticulous stone-setting, polishing and final packaging. Each detail is thoughtfully considered, ensuring the finished jewel is as exceptional as the story it was crafted to safekeep.
The Beginning of a New Chapter
As we work on designs for our bespoke clients, we always consider how these jewels would shine alongside their family long after the wedding day, too: the anniversaries, celebrations, and all the special moments in between.
Over time, a jewel becomes more than what it was when it was first created. It becomes part of the moments it witnesses, the people who wear it, and the memories that grow around each one; and here at B.P.’s, we are always honoured to receive the trust and love of our clients, especially when it comes to family heirlooms like this.
Congratulations, to the happy Mr and Mrs, from all of us at B.P. de Silva!
