The Romans believed the gods could transform themselves into swallows, so channelling this evocative myth, Stenzhorn chose the name, Fortuna, after the Roman goddess of fortune.<\/p>\n<p>To recreate the lightness and delicate elegance of the swallow, Stenzhorn chose custom-cut buff top sapphires to lend the avian a smooth and organic silhouette. The sapphires are prong-set in blackened gold to enhance the deep blue hue and create a seamless flow of rich colour running along the wings. Pear-shaped diamonds, set into white gold, mimic the fluttering feathers of the winged creature. Hidden articulations along the wings and tail bring lifelike movement to the jewellery piece.<\/p>\n<p>Suspended from the creature&#8217;s little beak is a pear-shaped blue sapphire, symbolising freedom and new beginnings. A vivid green, emerald eye completes the delightful composition. The swallow is seamlessly integrated into a flexible diamond collier that drapes softly around the neck.<\/p>\n<p>The Fortuna is an excellent example of Stenzhorn&#8217;s mastery of high jewellery-making techniques The Fortuna required 700 hours of highly skilled work over four months. Despite its highly sophisticated construction, the Fortuna emanates the joyful simplicity of spring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some of the jewels that caught our eye are a luxurious\u00a0 line of \u00a0Xpandable\u2122 cocktail rings by Picchiotti that can adjust to different finger sizes and the unique Stenzhorn Fortuna high jewellery necklace that features a swallow as the focal point.
