The M.I.N.D. Collection – Cleopatra Necklace
The M.I.N.D. collection is all about special moments, inspiration coming to life, a touch of innovation and bold ideas. Each piece of jewelry in this collection tells its own story and captures a meaningful moment.
When I saw the string of pearls, the name immediately caught my eye: Cleopatra pearls. That immediately brought me to the intriguing story of the Egyptian queen, who, according to tradition, dissolved a pearl in vinegar during a banquet with Mark Antony – an ultimate symbol of luxury and power. That image, and the accompanying painting depicting this moment so beautifully, were the inspiration for this necklace.
I decided to incorporate a solid gold pearl into the design, in reference to the pearl from the legend. The Cleopatra Necklace is thus a tribute to femininity and beauty, reflecting the strength and elegance that so characterized Cleopatra.
