I designed the Parvaneh Pendant around the oldest love story in Persian poetry: the moth and the flame, parvaneh o sham'. Attar told it, Rumi told it, Hafez told it. The moth circles the candle until it gives itself to the light entirely. In Persian, one word covers both butterfly and moth, and this piece lives happily in that ambiguity. The four wings are mirror-polished 18ct yellow gold, softly domed, thin at the edges and fuller where they meet the body. Each upper wing carries a channel of seventeen pave diamonds, graded in size: a single row of the larger stones beside the body, opening into two rows and then three towards the wing tip, every stone held by small gold grains. The lower wings are left plain. At the thorax, an oval ruby cabochon rises from a smooth polished bezel: the flame, carried on the body. The body is polished to match, one continuous shine from wing tip to wing tip. Turn it over and a pierced girih backplate follows the wing outline, six ten-petal rosettes joined by fine angular links: the house signature, hidden against the skin. Designed in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter and made to order.
