LOOKING GOOD
EXPRESSIONS OF LOVE The new Hardy Brothers 2021 wedding campaign strikes a poetic balance between the enduring symbols of matrimony and the unique expressions of modern love.
THE MASTER CRAFTSMEN at Hardy Brothers have distinguished each piece of their 2021 wedding campaign with emotion and innovation for the contemporary couple. Poetically named Amora, Omnia and Quintessential, the new engagement collections are imbued with an expression of intimacy and romance in their design. “We’re careful to ensure that it’s our customer’s vision at the centre of the process, not our own,” explains Hardy Brothers CEO Stuart Bishop. The Amora collection, which was conceived as a modern interpretation of a Hardy Brothers classic, lives up to its Spanish heritage to present a stunning selection inspired by love. Some of the most revered signatures such as upswept under rails and six prong hexagonal settings are reimagined in an enchanting and contemporary way. Through an unwavering commitment to artisanship, the master craftsmen have embedded clarity of vision within the Amora collection that is matched only by their selection of extraordinary diamonds. The Omnia Collection, whose name is derived from the Arabic word for wish, also reflects a commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and exacting design. As Vivienne Westwood once said: ‘Buy less, choose well, make it last’, and this timeless collection is certainly one to be worn and appreciated through the generations. Omnia’s key principles of faithfulness and sincerity are celebrated in the extraordinary and radiant qualities of each diamond. Realised in a hexagonal six prong sartorial setting, each piece pursues a unity of proportion, rhythm and movement through an artful observation of minimalist design principles while nurturing the individual character and signature of its maker.

The final collection in the Hardy Brothers wedding campaign is a romantic extension of the well-known Quintessential Collection. Built upon the same values of traditional craftsmanship and luxury, Quintessential Engagement is tailored for the modern bride. The collection presents opportunities in four and six claws, as well as in two tone and single alloy. Each piece is designed to be paired with the timeless Quintessential Diamond Bands. Hardy Brothers believe that a diamond’s provenance is integral to its allure. Therefore, every diamond in each new collection is certified and the company have developed a global network of supply chain partners to source high-quality diamonds and gemstones.
Their heritage and knowledge of the craft have afforded them the opportunity to forge meaningful relationships based on trust. Hardy Brothers actively align themselves with industry leaders that adhere to certain operating codes, particularly the Kimberly Process, and have worked to establish policies that reduce the risk of violating environmental and human rights standards. If you’re inspired by the new engagement collections, you can work with Hardy Brothers bespoke services to craft your own unique piece. Their suite of customisation and commissioning services provide clients with direct access to Master Craftsman and a direct line for the most desired precious gems and diamonds.
