oyalukkas is an organization that is strongly committed to CSR activities because the Group’s visionary chairman Joy Alukkas believes “Every organization should be responsible for the society and environment they exist in” and in the UAE blood is one of the most important contributions. Since, Hospitals barely manage to gather the quantity of blood required to serve the populations needs. The Joyalukkas Foundation, the Group’s CSR division, leads various initiatives that save lives and foster community well being throughout the year. Frequent blood donation drives, where Joyalukkas employees and the public voluntarily give lifesaving blood is one of them.

“The blood donation drive is an invaluable service to the public,” said Joy Alukkas, Chairman & MD, Joyalukkas Group. “And we would like to thank everyone, especially our staff, who have wholeheartedly participated 16

Every minute, someone needs blood because they were injured in an accident, in surgery or have an existing condition that requires regular blood donation. In the UAE, the need to donated blood rises during summer and especially in the month of Ramadan.

That’s why it means a lot to conduct this drive now, and during the UAE’s appointed Year of Giving. With 1 unit

SWAROVSKI GEMSTONES PRESENTS TALISMANS AND SYMBOLS The return of the jewel to its original role as magical amulet or talisman is one of the most powerful, influential and far-reaching trends in today’s jewelry world; a universal concept, with relevance to every country and culture, that continues to strengthen and evolve, with new brands devoted entirely to spiritual associations and fresh interpretations of age-old symbols.

TALISMANS AND SYMBOLS

N

ow, as always in tune with, or one step ahead of directional trends, Swarovski Gemstones presents the special Gem Visions book on Talismans and Symbols, an in-depth, entertaining and illuminating study of this fascinating subject, a review of varied interpretations of the theme from across the globe. Looking to the future, the Gem Visions team sets out a wealth of ideas, themes and inspirations for modern-day talismanic jewels. Most of all, the book highlights the current awakening

44

JEWELBUZZ | VOL 2 ISSUE 3

of consciousness, and the escalating desire for luxury with “soul”. It explains our craving for small, precious objects to keep with us at all times, to reassure and protect, offering a sense of continuity and connection to a power beyond our world and ourselves.

The stories, memories, messages and beliefs attached to jewels fuel the power of talismans and amulets, and throughout the book, in exclusive interviews with Britishbased designer, Sarah Ho and industry

luminary, Ms Pham Thi My Hanh, (Vice President of PNJ Vietnam), we reveal some of the intensely personal stories behind their creations, the messages that underpin their designs. These are the Secrets of Jewels.

TALISMANS & SYMBOLS comprises five main chapters, each with an introduction to the theme and divided into specific sections, along with a general introduction, interviews and an account of the successful collaboration between Swarovski

T REN DS

Gemstones and the Copenhagen School of Design and Technology (KEA).

INTRODUCTION: The earliest jewels were almost certainly magical talismans or protective amulets.

Natural treasures, leaf, shell, feather, a glinting pebble or even a shed snakeskin, were seen as signs of the divine; intermediaries between man and the forces that governed his fate.

Since the start of the new millennium, on the brink of the unknown, charms and amulets have swept back into fashion. Turning attention to deep-rooted beliefs that have

charms and symbols believed to protect from harm and evil or attract luck and love.

Lady Luck and Prosperity traces the roots of such familiar motifs as the four-leaf clover, lucky bean, the source of all life, horseshoe, or Chanel’s favourite wheatsheaf, symbol of abundance and prosperity. Love Me Do hones in on symbols of love, the ring itself, representing never-ending love, the heart, padlock, love knot, or the pansy, favoured

by Victorians, for its message, “I’m thinking of you.” Guardian Angels looks at protective amulets, from the evil eye or hamsa hand, to native American dreamcatchers or the scissors, knife or sword motif, believed to cut through evil or negativity, as depicted in Shamballa Jewellery. In this chapter, Sarah Ho explains the significance to her family of the number 9 and tells unravels the hidden messages in Luck, Prosperity and Longevity rings, set with Swarovski genuine rubies, the gemstones considered the most auspicious, linked to courage, love and passion.

STARS & COSMOS: Here we examine the endlessly popular signs of the zodiac, the way in which the sky, stars and celestial beings, considered signs of the divine in earliest times, have always inspired talismanic symbols. Celestial Beings charts the course of timelessly beautiful, emotive jewels shaped as moons, crescents, comets, constellations or shooting stars, a theme that has gathered momentum in recent years, as in Elie Top’s Mecaniques Celestes collection fusing fantasy and architecture. The Zodiac section is devoted to interpretations, old and new, of signs of the Zodiac, a fascination handed down to us from earliest antiquity and as popular today as ever.

endured through millennia, reaching across the globe, connecting countries, cultures and civilizations. Every age and everyculture translates ancient symbols and beliefs in its own way, making them relevant and layering them with more meanings, fables and superstitions, so that the vast lexicon of symbols is continually enriched and evolving.

LOVE, LUCK AND PROTECTION: This focuses on the age-old, universal quest for good fortune, love and prosperity, on

46

JEWELBUZZ | VOL 2 ISSUE 3

BETWEEN FAITH AND MAGIC: This highlights today’s megatrend of the meeting of art and science, harking back to the medieval alchemy, mysticism and the mingling of religious devotion and magic.

It looks at today’s surge of spirituality in Jewellery, the layering of multi-cultural symbols, from the Seal of Solomon to angel wings and Buddhas, and modern incarnations of incantations and invocations.

Modern Faith delves deeper into the crossover between mystical and religious symbols, and today’s cross-cultural cosmic spirit as expressed by brands such as Egyptian jeweller, Azza Fahmy, or Miamibased, Italian designer Dionea Orcini.

Sacred Mantra and Mandala points to a rediscovery of the power of words of numbers, and a renewed appreciation of the ancient mandala, the circle of life. Animistic Body and Soul explores the tradition of figurative form of animals, like the lion, whose power was believed to transfer to the wearer, the serpent, symbol of rebirth and renewal, or of body parts, both human and animal,

the skull, reminder of mortality, the hand of friendship or today’s ruby-encrusted lips.

SECRETS OF GEMSTONES: Since they were first discovered, thousands of years ago, gemstones have been imbued with magical, spiritual or healing properties, linked to beliefs and superstitions and loaded with legends. The miraculous process of crystallization, the shapes and forms of gems and minerals, represented divine, sacred geometry, a theme that has re-emerged in Jewellery in recent years, along with a fascination with geology and mineralogy. Sacred Geometry digs deep into the mysticism of shapes and forms embodying the supreme order of nature, the secrets of the universe.

Precious Power explores the lore or meanings of gemstones, rooted in antiquity, developed in medieval times and alive and strong today, particularly in India, where the amuletic navaratna jewel is set with nine planetary gems. The Perfect Cut focuses on the art and science of stone-cutting, a medieval, meditative skill, underpinned by an understanding of the way in which light acts within a gemstone. Today, gem-cutting, as perfected by Swarovski Gemstones, has reached new levels of poetry, precision and perfection. The perfectly-cut gemstone is treasured as the ultimate amulet and talisman.

TALISMANS AND SYMBOLS – NEW PERSPECTIVES As the entire book shows, the story of talismans, amulets and symbols, thousands of years old, is alive today, continually evolving, reinvigorated by each generation.

This chapter outlines the way in which talismans are falling under the spell of technology, the modern-day magic, conjuring selfies, text message mantras and the power of symbols is embodied in the ever-present, expressive emoticons. Most of all, this chapter reminds us that talismans are intensely personal, and through memories and imagination, we can transform almost any jewel into a powerful, cherished talisman.

For fresh perspectives on talismanic and symbolic jewellery, we invited students from the Copenhagen School of Design and Technology to explore concepts that go beyond the usual interpretation. Discover the stunning results in our book.

We believe that the repertoire of talismans, charms and magical symbols across the world is endlessly fascinating. We hope this guide will charm and inspire you, opening up new vistas of creative opportunities and stimulating ideas for modern-day talismans, taking tradition into the future.

CELEBRITY ENGAGEMENT RING PLATINUM STYLE PREDICTIONS

Photo Courtesy: InStar

Platinum is praised as the most secure setting for invaluable diamonds and gemstones, and its naturally white colour further enhances the brilliance of these stones. Platinum Guild International, the marketing association for the platinum jewellery industry, selected some leading female celebrity personalities and predicted each of their platinum engagement ring styles.

Jennifer Lawrence is known for her refreshingly honest and non-conformist personality, so we envision her filmmaker boyfriend Darren Aronofsky proposing with a modern engagement ring style, set in the world’s most durable precious metal – platinum.

Emma Watson is a timeless beauty who prefers understated elegance, which perfectly complements platinum’s unfading colour and heirloom qualities. Tech boyfriend William “Mack” Knight might propose with classic oval diamond solitaire.

PLATINUM RING BY MICHAEL BONDANZA PLATINUM RING BY RITANI

Jennifer Lopez is a glamorous woman who is not afraid to make a statement with her bold fashion choices, and everyone knows her love of large diamond jewellery. Her professional baseball player boyfriend Alex Rodriguez will most likely select an extra large diamond as the centre stone, set with platinum prongs in order to secure the major bauble.

Making Sense of Mixed Signals in the Price of Silver

O

ftentimes in this space we’re focused on one particular variable—or maybe two—that’s sending a precious metal like silver in one specific direction. But right now, the signals in the silver market are hard to read. That leaves us with two questions: what are these signals (and their causes), and what are investors to make of them going forward? In order to do that, we’ll look at some of the frequent contributors to silver’s price—like the U.S. dollar index—as well as some newer faces.

SILVER’S PRICE RELATED TO THE U.S. DOLLAR The first thing most investors should do when considering the value of precious metals is to understand the current context of the U.S. dollar’s strength. You can do that by viewing MarketWatch’s page on the U.S. dollar index, or DXY.

It’s fair to say that Thursday morning’s stock market results were “mixed,” as well, with most of the major indexes—the Dow, S&P, etc.—were within a few tenths of a percentage point of their original trading value when the day began.

WHERE THE MIXED SIGNALS POINT Where is the dollar pointing? Recent headlines would have you see a recovery in the dollar index, but only just recently has the dollar shot down, almost a full point, before the mid-point of Thursday’s trading. Now you’re getting a sense of why there are mixed signals in silver: the U.S. dollar index appeared to be having a strong week after moving down in late Monday trading. Now, all of those gains have been wiped away, and then some. This is, of course, bullish for precious metals like silver, but the week isn’t over yet.

SILVER CONTEXT BEFORE THE DIP Economic Calendar points out that silver prices were declining today as investors “shifted their attention to central banks.” Given the recent activity, there’s a good probability that this kind of headline might be forgotten about. Pointing out that gold was down on the news as well, it’s worth noting that gold has taken a slight “up” position since then, echoing what’s going on in the silver markets.

If silver was supposed to be headed down today, there have been some developments that suggest the precious metal might have more legs—but try not to read too much into this kind of development.

There are a lot of mixed signals with silver, true, but that’s only on a week-to-week—even a day-to-day basis. If we were to zoom out and look at silver’s performance in July or June, we’d have a much better view of where the precious metal may be heading, and which factors really add up when it comes to the price of the precious metal.

That means investors will want to be wary about thinking there’s a ton of good news to be read in a slight bump like this morning’s. Silver might be slightly volatile as precious metals go, but it remains an intriguing long-term investment, and it’s difficult to make money on it in the short-term future, especially when the market is sending mixed signals.

This TAG Heuer offering is made from stainless steel, and is clasped to the arm with a soft leather band. The black face is backlit and covered with a sapphire crystal cover which provides great protection for the silver analog dial, while eliminating reflected light which could make the face of a watch difficult to read while on the water.

At just 4.9 millimeters, this watch is as thin as it is sleek. A brown version is available as well.

ULYSSE NARDIN MAXI MARINE DIVER CHRONOMETER Ulysse Nardin specializes in marine chronometers. If you find those styles attractive, your search for a luxury men’s watch should begin and end with the Maxi Marine Diver Chronometer.This time piece incorporates a round stainless steel body secured by a titanium and rubber strap.The face of the watch is a striking deep blue with analog arms maintaining the minute and hour count. The day of the month is recorded at the base of the face. The watch has a screw-down crown with a sapphire crystal glass cover to protect the face of the time piece, and is water-resistant to 300 meters.
