FERNANDO JORGE | FALL / WINTER 2012

Born in Brazil, Fernando Jorge’s jewellery is yielded from his strong identification with his heritage. Made from unique gemstones sourced in Brazil, Jorge works with local craftsman and creates a range of jewellery that acts as a homage to his beautiful home.

Organic, fluid shapes in the green series collection mirror the beautiful, green landscape of the thriving country. The gold is delicate and elegant, allowing the stunning gems to be the stars of his work. With each gem being unique, the natural components of the stones allow each piece to be beautiful in a different way.

The shapes are elegant and yet unusual. Moving away from traditional designs, his collection is fresh and offers modern sophistication, mirroring the intricate detail that nature displays. With the added luxury of diamonds and precious gems, his designs are truly special.

Jorge manages to capture the beauty of his country with designs inspired by his surroundings and a focus on the natural aesthetic of gemstones. His collection follows the recent trend of Brazil establishing itself as a new hot spot for talented designers.
