Flavours & Colours of Summer

Summer on a Solitary Beach ” – Franco Battiato

Summer has arrived! It arrived carrying sun, high temperatures and a great desire for the sea or mountains. Near or far, we all need a break. All around Europe there is an air of adventure and relaxation as the cities are emptied or just stop. There are those packing up suitcases for departure to distant destinations, there are those who, instead, prepare to spend the summer break in the peace and tranquillity of the home. With summer comes the desire not only for holidays but the desire for freshness and colour for all the senses to enjoy. In summer colours are all around. If you wish to keep up to date in terms of style, check out the fashion weeks around the world and you’ll have fun figuring out which trend follow. The simplest way to enjoy colour is to follow your instincts and look around you. Flowers, sunsets, sunrises, veggies, fruits, people and the colours they wear, trends or no. Most cultures celebrate the season with colours.

 

What better way to enjoy the season and its colours than to wear colourful clothing and adornments. Gems and precious stones come in a rainbow of colours. The wide range of precious stones set in the beautiful jewellery settings, allows you to locate the most suitable choice for a particular time, on a bright sunny day or for a gala evening. Colours and brightness will be our guideline.  Let’s have a little fun and discover a few essential associations between colours of sweets,  nature’s treats and precious stones.

Jewellery sweet as. . . cupcakes

Cupcakes: a concentration of delight in miniature. And how many colours! A satisfaction of the five senses. And the pastel colours of cupcakes are irresistible as some jewellery. The yummy Pink Morganite, the luscious Sky Blue Topaz, delicious moonlight Topaz, are stones that shine particularly well in sunlight: suitable for a walk one afternoon by the sea, or for tea time with cupcakes!

The taste of chocolate. . .

Chocolate: “When all else fails, there’s always chocolate” is a famous quote from  Garfield the cat.  If things go bad just add a little bit of chocolate and life gets sweeter. The taste of chocolate and its luscious warm colour make us think of stones like Opal, Amazon Quartz or Smoky Quartz.
