A Look at the Messika My Twin Jewellery Collection
Thursday - 25 August 2022
Since launching in 2005, Messika is a Parisian fine jewellery brand that is going from strength to strength. Instilling the beauty of the classic diamond in each innovative design, each bangle, bracelet, earring, necklace and pendant tells the story of Messika’s heritage. The company founder and creative director, Valerie Messika was only a child when her passion for the diamond was ignited. Having travelled around the world with her father, Andre Messika, Valerie discovered the secrets of the industry and developed a passion for the trade. Her vision was to encourage the modern woman to embrace her elegance and femininity with these unique designs.
Every Messika diamond jewellery design has the power to steal the show with its captivating fire and brilliance. The stones at the Parisian brand’s Diamond Jewellery Atelier are each selected for their unique beauty and are chosen for their cut, colour, clarity and carat weight. One of the Maison’s flagship collections is the Move jewellery range, with designs that embody the iconic moving diamonds concept. Here, oblong golden cages house single round brilliant-cut diamonds that are free to slide up and down within a unique golden track. The diamonds are secured inside smooth polished rub-over settings, creating a contemporary feel and the collection has expanded over the last decade to offer other interpretations of this unique concept. Although the Messika Move jewellery collection is one of the most recognisable from the French brand’s catalogue, other collections prove incredibly popular too. The Messika My Twin jewellery collection is one example.
My Twin jewellery designs by Messika still celebrate the entrancing beauty of the diamond but in a different way. Considered a more contemporary version of the Toi & Moi range, these Messika jewellery designs boast different diamond cuts, rendering them the perfect gift idea for loved ones. Messika My Twin jewellery designs offer a new way to celebrate love and romance. The unexpected combinations of two different diamond cuts make for a very unique and special take on the brand’s approach to creating timeless diamond jewellery designs. The hypnotic emerald-cut diamond provides deep clarity and a large surface table, enabling light to penetrate the beautifully faceted edges of this stone for a magnificent display of fire and brilliance. The pear-cut diamond promises a particularly graceful finish to a piece of jewellery. Its tapering point is both elegant and opulent. In the designs of the Messika My Twin series, the two stones appear to be floating towards each other but never quite touch. The emerald-cut diamond and pear-cut diamond in each creation are surrounded by a halo of delicate round brilliant-cut diamonds that elevate the piece of jewellery further.
Although contrasting and twinning at the same time, the diamonds showcased in these Messika My Twin jewellery designs call out to one another, each one revealing a sense of radiance and playfulness. Uniquely the My Twin jewellery designs by Messika reflect and refract the light beautifully and can either be enjoyed alone as a statement piece or stacked and layered with other creations from the same or similar lines. These uninhibited diamonds call out to ladies who like to wear bold, contemporary designs.
One particularly eye-catching piece of Messika jewellery from the My Twin series is the Messika My Twin Diamond Two Row necklace. Sensual and sparkling, this design is crafted from polished 18ct white gold and features the emerald-cut diamond suspended from the top row, followed by the pear-cut diamond held from the bottom row. Both diamond cuts have been adorned with a frame of smaller round brilliant-cut diamonds and the 60cm chain is finished with additional single round brilliant-cut diamonds for added finesse and panache.
The Messika My Twin 1 + 2 earrings in white gold are a perfectly mismatched pair of studs that extend the Maison’s trend-setting mission for asymmetrical, unaligned designs. One half of the pair features a single emerald-cut diamond framed by a halo of round brilliant-cut diamonds. The other half of the pair features the emerald-cut diamond halo structure attached to an additional pear-cut diamond halo design attached by a white gold connecting bar. Both earrings appear completely independent of one another and attach to the ears with a practical post and butterfly fastening.
Alternatively, the rose gold Messika My Twin diamond ring design unites the blush pink tones of 18ct rose gold with the unique emerald-cut and pear-cut diamond sections. The ring is an open style – one end represented by the pear-cut diamond, the other represented by the emerald-cut diamond. The ring wraps effortlessly around the circumference of the finger and has been engraved with the famous Messika lettering on the inner surface of the band, together with a delicate round brilliant-cut diamond set into the metal.
