A team of London based designers, BR Republic have come up with some striking and original Jewellery. If you wish to make a statement, you do not need to look further.
If you take a glance at their collections at the BR Republic website, the Unique Jewellery is a refreshing change to the norm.
For instance, The Ladybug pendant is simply enchanting. Sterling silver and micro set with 1.00ct of diamond cut yellow and black sapphires. Ladybugs are finished in black rhodium and are presented on a 16in black sterling silver chain.
At £895, this seems almost too good. Unfair on BR Republic, even! This design jewellery is well crafted and that is obvious in its appearance.
The Callisto Ring is another example of stunning and inspired design.
The Callisto (£795) is a Sterling silver ring, set with 3.00ct of round black sapphires, finished in white and black rhodium with, and I love this, red gold plating on the inside of the ring.
Very Louboutin.
There are so many more different styles available. These pieces are certainly made for you to be noticed. Available at Harvey Nichols in Knightsbridge, you have to consider one of these pieces. It’s time to start harvesting those compliments.

I have always been fascinated by the tale of King Midas - everything he touched turned to Gold - and I do not think I am alone in this fascination.
Stuart Hughes has been doing some pretty remarkable things with Gold. When he got hold of the new Apple iPad, I knew the end product was going to be special.
The must have accesory of the moment, The iPad, doesn’t really need to be blinged up….but, my word! Look at this!!!
Liverpool based Stuart Hughes is the man behind some of the most exclusive, elite gadgets around. The Wi-Fi & 3G , 64GB iPad looks the absolute business here. The rear and screen are covered in 21 grams of beautiful, high polished gold. This ultimate case has been formed from one sole piece of 22 carat gold (95% pure gold, with 5% tougher alloys, meaning this work of art is robust and well protected).
Stuart’s wife, Katherine is responsible for the design and crafting of the iPad. Adding in 53 Diamonds to create the Iconic Apple logo finishes this piece off in dramatic fashion. 25.5 cts of ‘I’F’ Flawless diamonds, the quality is clearly obvious.
This item is of a limited edition of only 10 units to be made. As an investment, they don’t come shinier than this. And at £129,995 with all those diamonds and ALL that gold, this seems like a smart investment too.
I haven’t seen anything like this, made to this kind of standard. That is, apart from the The MacBook Air Platinum Edition, also by Stuart Hughes. Expect to see that bad boy in lussorian very soon!
