She’s All of ’22
WHATEVER HER AGE, MAKE THIS HER YEAR. GIVE HER A PIECE OF JEWELRY THAT’S TIMELESS.
Doesn’t that woman in your life—wife, fiancée, girlfriend, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, niece or friend—deserve the best? Three luxury jewelry brands think so, and they don’t even know her. They have, however, some ideas:
Clockwise from top left: Akoya cultured pearl circle pendant and earrings featuring diamonds in 18k white and yellow gold: earrings $1,950; pendant, $1,800; Akoya cultured pearl strand lariat with movable diamond clasp in 18K white gold, $7,490; Akoya cultured pearl double row bracelet with diamond clasp in 18K white gold, $7,800.
MIKIMOTO
Since 1893, when Kokichi Mikimoto cultured the firstever pearl in Japan, his namesake company has been the world’s most notable luxury pearl brand. This year’s newest Mikimoto collections pay homage to his legacy, but with a contemporary twist. The Classic Collection lets the simplicity of the pearl (and sometimes diamonds) speak for itself.
MARCO BICEGO
Spring is the time to experiment with color, her jewelry vault included. The brand-new Jaipur Color Collection from Marco Bicego features stunning gemstones in both bright and pastel hues inspired by the colors of India. Choose your birthstone or whatever color is your favorite—or perhaps all of the above? If you prefer to stick with metals, Jaipur Gold features Bicego’s signature engraving techniques in yellow gold links, pendants, hoops and charms.
Clockwise from top left, all 18K from the Jaipur Collection: yellow gold hand-engraved and polished drop earrings, $1,640; yellow gold flat link collar, $7,520; yellow gold hand-engraved and polished charm bracelet, $1,830; yellow gold medium pendant with pavé diamonds, $3,380; gold and aquamarine small stackable pendant, $1,550; yellow gold and mother-ofpearl medium stackable pendant, $1,930; yellow gold handengraved and polished charm short necklace, $3,500; yellow gold hand-engraved and polished double ring, $2,300; yellow gold blue topaz medium stackable ring, $1,300.

DAVID YURMAN
Iconic. Timeless. Classic. Such adjectives perfectly describe Cable, the pinnacle of David Yurman designs. The brand’s new collection, Cable Edge, brings a contemporary essence to this artistic technique in which one piece of metal is forged and torqued into the most perfect twist. These new pieces modernize Cable, but are reminiscent of some of Evan Yurman’s early forged metal works, crafted during his apprenticeship with a blacksmith. The unisex pieces in Cable Edge are crafted from recycled sterling silver or yellow gold and hand-set with diamonds. They can be worn individually—or all at once for a dramatic statement.
Clockwise from top left, Cable Edge 20mm saddle ring in 18K recycled yellow gold, $3,900; Cable Edge 5.5mm collar necklace in 18K recycled yellow gold, $9,500; Cable Edge 41mm cuff bracelet in recycled sterling silver, $1,200; Cable Edge 4mm full pavé bracelet in 18K recycled yellow gold with diamonds, $7,800; Cable Edge 4mm band ring in 18K recycled yellow gold with diamonds, $2,700; Cable Edge 3.5mm hoop earrings in 18K recycled yellow gold with diamonds, $2,400.
