Goldsmiths’ Craft and Design Council Awards - QVC Special Award Winner - Rebecca Howarth

The following is from Cambridge News writer Rachel Allen:

A bespoke jewellery designer has scooped an  award at a prestigious ceremony for the jewellery industry.

Cambridge jeweller Rebecca Howarth, head of design at Harriet Kelsall Bespoke Jewellery in Green Street, has been recognised for her design of a piece of fashion jewellery in the Goldsmiths’ Craft and Design Council Awards. 

She achieved gold medal standard in the QVC Special Award at a glittering event attended by the council’s patron, Princess Michael of Kent, at Goldsmiths Hall in London.

Her winning design was inspired by the Cheapside Hoard, a priceless collection of 16th and early 17th century gemstones and jewels, discovered buried in a cellar in Cheapside, London, in 1912.

For the first time in over a century, the collection will be displayed in its entirety in an exhibition at the Museum of London, which opens in June, and Rebecca’s design will feature in the exhibition.

She designed a ruffle neckpiece, based on ruffles found on clothes in the 15th and 16th centuries.

The dramatic neckpiece, made in gold leather, features emeralds, rubies and garnets creating a striking yet contemporary design.

Design assistant Tom Wilson’s work was also chosen from that of many other designers to be exhibited at the awards ceremony, which is a great achievement for such a young designer.

Rebecca was also shortlisted for the Goldsmiths’ Company Award, a significant accolade in the stable of awards, which recognises exceptional design award entries.

She said: “The Goldsmiths’ Craft & Design Council Awards are regarded as the pinnacle of industry awards and so to win an award for one of my designs is a real honour.

“I was particularly drawn to this particular award by the link to the Cheapside Hoard; it’s a fascinating part of the history of jewellery and to produce a design based on something so important to my craft was very exciting.

“I am thrilled to have won and also to have been shortlisted for another award.”

My hats off to you Ms. Allen - I was wondering what that piece was all about...

Rare, natural blue diamond to be auctioned during Israel's Int'l Diamond Week

Rare, natural blue diamond to be auctioned by Tzoffey's 1818

during U.S. / International Diamond Week in Israel

A natural vivid blue unique heart shape diamond, weighing 1.93 carat, is one of the show pieces at the auction of exclusive gems and jewelry organized by Tzoffey's 1818 to be held during the inaugural US/International Diamond Week at the Israel Diamond Exchange (IDE), March 17-20. When sold, the stone may fetch more than a million dollars per carat.

"Natural blue diamonds are without doubt the most rare and therefore most expensive category among natural color diamonds," said Avner Sofiov, owner of the French-Israeli auction house Tzoffey's. He recalled that the last two blue diamonds that were sold at auction by Sotheby's fetched extraordinary prices. "In May 2012, a marquise-shaped blue diamond of 2.07 carat was sold for $1.85 milllion, and in November a briolet-cut stone of 10.48 carat sold for more than $1 million per carat. The quality of this 1.93 heart shape is higher than the stones sold by Sotheby's and I am very curious how much this stone will fetch!" he added.

The blue diamond, together with hundreds of other, high-quality gemstones and jewelry pieces, can be viewed in a special viewing area adjacent to the trading hall of the Israel Diamond Exchange, from March 17 to 20. Bids are to be submitted in closed envelopes. The exact time of the auction's conclusion and its results will be announced shortly.

In addition to the Tzoffey's auction, I Hennig/ Fusion Alternatives, and the Rapaport Company will hold two auctions of polished diamonds. These polished auctions are being held in addition to rough diamond tenders organized by I Hennig/Fusion Alternatives and Ediamond.

Buyers will be offered four free hotel nights at the Leonardo Hotel, located opposite the Ramat Gan diamond exchange complex. The complimentary hotel accommodation is being provided courtesy of the Israel Diamond Institute (IDI). Please click here to register for the event.

Spotlight on Isharya's Spring Collections!

Isharya Spring 2013

Isharya goes big, bold and bright for Spring, reinterpreting its classic collections in fresh chromatic hues and free-spirited conversational pieces lusted after by trendsetters, daydreamers and bohemians chasing ‘la joie de vivre’. 

The Gem Rocks Claw collection presents playful patterns and prints inspired by the rich culture, wildlife and landscape of the African safari. Black and white jasper transforms into Zebra claw cocktail rings and pendant necklaces while African turquoise, rose jasper and mother of pearl take the shape of statement cuffs, stackable bangles, bib necklaces and geometric claw link earrings. 

The Gem Rocks Goddess collection features eccentric, eye-catching baubles fit for a Grecian goddess. Fashionistas reveal their inner Aphrodite with jagged-shaped jewels including the goddess power cuff, fringe chandelier earrings and stackable rings in an array of natural stones from green amazonite and blue lapis to golden pearl. 

The Modern Maharani Indian Summer collection plays off the heat of the summer solstice with electric colors and animal motifs. The fun-loving serpent wraparound cuff adds fervor to any ensemble from poolside bikini to party dress. Isharya revamps its classic vendome lily bangle with a palette fit for balmy Summertime temperatures, mix matching passionate pink flambé and electrifying neon green with the cooler, calming shade of aqua blue.

The Louvre Pyramid Luxe collection follows color suit, offering coral and turquoise-frosted resin 3-D pyramid pieces. The pyramid luxe flat cuff, louvre resin bangle and Lisa resin cuff are layering perfection, as they explore contrasting angles and beveled surfaces, resulting in edgy jewelry that is organically raw and playfully fun.

#WINNERS - Goldsmiths' Craft & Design Council Awards

Goldsmiths' Craft & Design Council Awards were held this week, presented by renown jeweller Leo De Vroomen with Princess Michael of Kent in attendance.

Morgan Morey of Dexter Seal Engraving

The awards, held at the Goldsmiths' Hall in London, are an annual celebration of the UK's goldsmithing, silversmithing and costume jewellery talent.  

Silversmith Christopher Lawrence accepted his Lifetime Achievement Award saying, "It's wonderful. I still get as much of a thrill out of a blank sheet of paper on my drawing board and a big sheet of silver on my bench as I did nearly 60 years ago." This from a man who has won the Jaques Cartier award three times in his 60-year career. 

Mark Hampson of Hampson Fine Jewels

Princess Michael of Kent, patron of The Goldsmiths’ Craft and Design Council addressed the crowd, "I've done a bit of jewellery designing myself, and I've certainly done a lot of wearing of it, so I was very pleased to go around and see the designs. It's fascinating to see how technology has become involved in a trade that has always been about handmade.

"This is a wonderful way to celebrate craftsmanship and design in the United Kingdom. Support and encouragement is needed and I'm encouraged and heartened to see such a vibrant and eclectic collection of designers."
