Hermès Launches Fine Jewelry
Posted: April 10th, 2010 | Author: A.J. | Filed under: fashion |Hermès launched a 14-piece jewelry line designed by Pierre Hardy.
“Hermès is not a very precious universe,” Hardy explained in a room at Hermès that typically houses the firm’s collection of vintage objects ranging from trunks to rocking horses.
“I simply went back to its roots and to the horse’s hoof, taking the roughest, strongest, almost radical element and giving it the most feminine, the most modern interpretation.”
When I first saw the hoof ring and necklace, I was confused. I didn’t know whether I liked it or not, but the more I stared at the ring, the more I am starting to adore it. Unfortunately, like with most other pretty things, I can only dream and stare at this through a computer screen. Prices for the collection start at a cool $23,675.
I think I kind of like the necklace. Like you I think the closest I’ll get to it is via a computer screen!
