New Messika Collection: Magnetic Attraction

To be with other people and appreciate their presence and energy, are things that we used to take for granted, but now we realise their full importance. Now that everyone is slowly getting out, the light seems to be re-emerging. One major challenge remains: How to find one’s place in this new social ballet, where relationships with others have changed.

Movement, which is a central element of the creation process at Messika, has never been so important. By learning to move again and showing a fresh lease for life, the designer makes the diamonds dance in this collection of bright and colourful High Jewelry. Playing on contrasts, between XXL hoop earrings, yellow diamonds and completely original combinations of stones, Valérie Messika has created sixteen spectacular pieces. It shows genuine technical prowess, with pear-cut diamonds gracefully balancing in their gold ring “back to back” or floating in a delicate pas de deux.

Dancing, as if to acquire a better grasp of this unexplored world in which alter egos, just like diamonds, leap around in harmonious choreographies. A collection that perfectly demonstrates that one is beautiful, but two together can be even more beautiful.

An ode to the dance embodied by dancer Fanny Sage...

PEAR LOVER

Dancing is a way to find each other again, feeling the strength of the other person, just like in the days when you could hold and be side by side which were synonymous with freedom.

This set celebrates the pear-cut diamond in all sizes, mixing the brilliance of white diamonds with the sunshine of the yellow diamond. Pear-cut diamonds – also referred to as “tears of the gods“, are transformed into tears of joy. Gathered together in a joyous ring, they symbolise the return of meeting up and life as we remember, as stones swing one way and then another. A hypnotizing energy radiates from this piece, which combines a river choker and contemporary ear cuff with an attitude so typical of the Parisian jewelry house.

DIAMOND MAGNET

Just like the opposite poles of magnets, the diamonds of different shapes, colours and sizes are irresistibly attracted to one another. Almost touching, the stones are separated by an uncrossable line, which is incarnated in the form of a river of emerald-cut diamonds. From one article to another, from the bracelet to single or double rings, this line takes on many forms, gaining in refinement but never totally disappearing, just like a magnetic dance. A beautiful metaphor for a “back to back” dance which celebrates union whilst preserving individuality.
