Exclusive rings designed by Heyerdahl. |
VIP Magasinet invited to a luxurious fashion lunch at Mona Lisa Huset in
Oslo, Tuesday 16th of April. Juweler Heyerdahl presented necklaces, rings and
earrings from the Danish brand Julie Sandlau, Italian brand Al Coro and
one-of-a-kind pieces from Heyerdahl. The extravagant diamond floral bracelet is
worth approx. 33 000 dollars (188 000 NOK) - and is uniquely designed by
Heyerdahl.
- If people in Norway buy jewels in genuine materials, it's
eco-friendly and last longer. 60 percent of what is sold from jewelers is made
from recycled materials. Sustainability and natural materials is key. People
are more concerned with ethics and morality than before, says CEO Thomas Heyerdahl.
This spring and summer, he tells that large earrings and many bracelets
at one arm are trendy. Characteristic green emerald is also popular, together
with dark blue gemstones. Diamonds are always trendy and sought-after. The
interest for individual jewels is also keen, and Heyerdahl offers individual
orders for self-designed items. They recently hosted a wedding
ring workshop, where two couples made their own rings from scratch. Very romantic for
them, and exciting for Heyerdahl to involve the costumers in the design
process.
- It's a trend in Europe with red gold, also called rosé gold, with a
more red and pink shine, instead of yellow, Thomas Heyerdahl adds. He also
wants to see Norwegians embrace this trend.
The jewels are a perfect match with Kathrine Nørgård's sophisticated
dresses and tailored suits. Nørgård makes clothes on request, designed with a
personal touch. She also makes two prêt-à-porter collections annually. She
revealed that she the coming fall will launch a collection in collaboration
with another brand - which is still a secret.
The jewels and clothes were presented with delicious tapas from Mona
Lisa Huset. Fashion Editor in VIP Magasinet, Navraj Kaur, organized a stylish
and elegant fashion lunch.
