India Hicks - Vermeil ISLAND LIVING Fine Jewelry Collection

Island Inspiration...

The latest introduction to India Hicks' 'Island Living' fine jewelry, is a curated collection of 18k gold vermeil and diamonds, featuring signature motifs, palm fronds, fish tails, moon phases, bows and arrows.

India Hicks, iconic designer, author, model, entrepreneur, mother of five, British royalty and remarkable talent, is well known for her adventurous and free-spirited sensibility.  The elegant and whimsical pieces that form 'Island Living' are directly inspired by life in the Bahamas - Harbour Island, her home for 18 years.  India has embraced the colors and textures of island's nature, whether it is through diving in the turquoise tropical waters and observing sea creatures, enjoying the pink sandy beaches, studying the local fishermen and moon phases that affect the tides or simply the sights and patterns of the flora and fauna.  These powerful elements of mother nature are reflected by recurring themes in her fine jewelry collection.

Swinging Bow and Arrow Pendant


Palm Frond Pendant

 

VERMEIL is a French word for the combination of gold with a 925 sterling silver base.  Originally a fire gilding process developed in France in the mid-18th century, today vermeil is safely produced by electrolysis.  Vermeil is considerably more durable than simple gold plating that is thin and easily scratches and wears over time.  Vermeil is much thicker and robust as the base is always sterling silver, (plated can be over any metal - commonly copper!)

Always inspired by India...  Please stop by to explore these incredible new pieces at Shannon Green Collection.
