New Year’s Eve: Which jewellery should you wear?

There are just a few days left to perfect your New Year’s Eve outfit. Between sequined dresses, heels, makeup and a good hairstyle, don’t forget that the right jewellery will also make for an unforgettable evening. New Year’s Eve is the night for indulging ourselves and putting on dazzling pieces of jewellery. Here are all our tricks of the trade to ensure that you are the belle of the ball.

Look dazzling with stacked jewellery

Stacked jewellery is the must trend for this year. So, go all out on New Year’s Eve. Whether necklaces, rings or bracelets, it can all be stacked. You can also play with the colour of pieces; gold and silver look great together. However, if you mix and match jewellery with different materials, make sure that the patina is the same.

How to take care of a piece of jewellery

When you buy a piece of jewellery that is beautiful, shiny and free of scratches, you want to keep it looking new for as long as possible!

Day to day

Here are three tips to prevent damage to your jewellery over the years:

  • Do not sleep with your jewellery on; the pieces may get tangled with one another or you may knock them while sleeping.
  • Stay away from saltwater, as it attacks metals.
  • Take off your jewellery when applying any sort of lotion, since beauty products can dull the shine.

Give your jewellery an overall cleaning

There are different old wives’ techniques for cleaning jewellery on the surface:

  • Soak your jewellery in lukewarm water.
  • Wash your jewellery with hard soap.
  • Clean your jewellery with toothpaste.

Be careful not to make the following mistakes:

  • Rubbing too hard.
  • Using chemicals.
  • Hitting your stones unintentionally (they might crack).
  • Exposing your jewellery to excessive heat.

Tips for silver jewellery

Silver is an especially soft metal. It scratches easily and oxidises quickly, making it look black. Whether your pieces are plated or solid, the techniques to clean them are the same.

  • Lemon juice: the acidity of lemon juice helps remove lime deposits and makes silver shine. Use a soft cloth to rub your jewellery with lemon juice. Then rinse it with water. You can do the same thing with cold ash (from a cigarette or a fireplace).
  • Baking soda: mix a tablespoon of baking soda with water to make a paste. Gently rub your jewellery with the paste and then polish it with a soft cloth.
  • Toothpaste: using a soft-bristled toothbrush and toothpaste, gently clean your jewellery. Then rinse it with water and clean it with a soft cloth.
  • Coca-Cola: soak your jewellery in a glass filled with Coca-Cola and then rinse it with clean water.

Tips for gold jewellery

Gold is a soft metal that scratches easily and gets dirty quickly. While it is important to clean it, it is best to avoid using products that are too aggressive. Remember to always rinse your jewellery with water.

Gold is cleaned like silver, i.e., with toothpaste and baking soda.

To wash gold and remove the dirt that tarnishes it, just use dish soap or soapy water. Immerse your gold jewellery in a bowl of hot water and dish soap. Let it sit overnight and then scrub it with a toothbrush. Rinse it well with clean water. This is ideal for removing any oil or grease.

There is also a trick with talcum powder, which can bring back gold’s shine to make it look like new without damaging it. Gently rub your gold jewellery with talcum powder using a soft cloth.

If you have any questions or doubts, talk to a professional. If you want to give your pieces of jewellery a complete facelift, take them to your jeweller.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish you a wonderful holiday season!

Roberto Coin: eternal love for jewellery!

Fashion is changeable. It is whimsical. Style is not. Style is part of us, of our life, in every moment and every expression. This lovely sentence by Roberto Coin perfectly reflects the jeweller’s creations. The brand’s founder creates stunning pieces, each as wonderful as the next. Here is a look at the history of Roberto Coin and its legendary collection.

A passion becomes a true vocation

Roberto Coin launched his brand in 1996. He was driven by an innate love for the world of art and fashion and sought to make a living through this passion, i.e., by making jewellery. After working in the hotel industry, he gave in to his passion and started designing extraordinary pieces of jewellery. At the time, the jeweller was based in Vicenza, Italy, known as the «City of Gold». His talent quickly attracted attention, and the brand became one of the most famous in Italy. The creations today are the result of an exciting process and a journey through different cultures.

Did you know?

Each piece of jewellery contains a small set ruby that is in direct contact with the skin of the person wearing it. This is how Roberto Coin signs his creations, a signature that represents the message of good wishes that Roberto Coin dedicates to his passionate customers.

The brand’s iconic collections

PRINCESS FLOWER

Inspired by the floral decorations of Venetian palaces, this collection is an expression of the more romantic side of women’s imaginations. It is made of flowers born from the hands of craftspeople dedicated to the princess who lives inside every woman.

DIAMOND PRINCESS

These pieces of jewellery are symbols of a romanticism that Roberto Coin revives from the past and reinterprets with an ultra-feminine and contemporary look. The flower motif conveys all the grace of sensuality, while the diamonds radiate the purity that belongs only to dreamers.

POIS MOI

Pois Moi is one of the brand’s iconic ranges. It combines a vintage style and an undeniably modern look. The pieces are covered with diamonds and gold.

LOVE IN VERONA

Inspired by the city of Verona, a symbol of love and the set of the love story between Romeo and Juliet. Love in Verona strengthens the bond between Roberto Coin and the Italian cities that inspire him. The pieces have a minimal and contemporary look yet hold a soul as ancient as eternal love.

PALAZZO DUCALE

The marble facade of Venice’s most famous palace, the Doge’s Palace, becomes a wearable decoration. The pieces reinterpret the designs of the Palace through gold and precious stones. A hymn to Venetian Gothic art and its unforgettable shapes.

On the occasion of the release of the latest James Bond film, we organised an event on 1 October in Geneva. The programme included cocktails, a meal and a screening of the film. A unique moment to admire this long-awaited film and to marvel at the Omega Semaster 007 James Bond and the sublime creations of Chopard. This year, Chopard has the honour of being the official partner of this movie This 25th film features Ana de Armas playing the role of Paloma. Here is a look at the pieces appearing in the film.

Annamaria Cammilli, feminine elegance

Gold becomes silk in all of its pieces

2 minute read

Innovation, creativity and craftsmanship are the key words defining a brand that has been constantly renewing itself over the past 35 years while remaining true to its essence. Annamaria Cammilli is bursting with life, creating beautiful and delicate pieces that you will find at every Geneve shop.

Over 35 years of dedication to the treatment and processing of gold surfaces have made it possible to achieve the metal’s original colours and long-lasting velvety effects.
The most significant result of this knowhow is the famous Cammilli finish called “Aetherna”, which alternates shiny and silky effects that enhance the depth and volume of shapes and does not deteriorate over time.

The jeweller’s works are divided into four concepts with different kinds of feminine elegance that result in a great variety of inspirational pieces.

Texture

An interplay of threads that define the intertwining of a dynamic motif. The design is enhanced by a predominantly glossy finish for an intense and eclectic look.

The finish of Texture is primarily shiny to enhance diamonds and semiprecious stones. Texture is designed for women who combine elegance and versatility.

Vision

Jewellery featuring outstanding abstract design. Voluminous curves bordered by soft edges of diamonds, enhanced by a total matte finish.

A collection born of the evolution of sculptural volumes with the aim of creating pieces that go beyond the basic definition of accessory. With a total matte finish and an unmistakable style that gives a 3D effect to the piece.

Inspired by the movements of water, which is represented in all its forms, from the rippling of waves to the smooth surface of water.

Flowers

Pieces of jewellery as micro-sculptures that meticulously reproduce the perfection of nature. A contrast of shiny and velvety gold enhances the shapes and design.

A collection born thanks to the creativity of Annamaria Cammilli and her talent inspired by nature. True micro-sculptures that reproduce the perfect forms of nature, characterised by the special Aetherna finish and lovely handmade engravings.

Essential

A minimal design of lines and movements outlined by the twirls of a slender ribbon. Unique jewellery enhanced by the special Aetherna finish. A concept full of shapes and design, with a special Cammilli finish, where gold becomes silk to the eye and to the touch, alternating shiny edges that enhance depth and forms.

Cammilli pieces are the result of years of research and experimentation.
The Maison has eight sophisticated, original and recognisable tones of 18-carat gold that accentuate the uniqueness of Cammilli creations and have helped make them famous around the world.

Geneve carries eight collections derived from the four concepts described above, collections featuring delicate pieces in an array of formats. Visit our website to find your favourite.

Recarlo, eternally beautiful jewellery

Women and diamonds are what inspire Recarlo, expressing a love of women and of couples in each of its pieces

Diamonds and women have always gone together, with the latter being the best inspiration we can have. As a jeweller, we love creating pieces for women, feeling that our items will be a special part of your life and that of your family, because a diamond is forever.

One of the brands you will find at Geneve is Recarlo. They share with us a powerful vision, that of the purposeful creation of fine jewellery that at the same time makes women shine with elegance.

The relationship between romanticism and eternal love represented by a diamond is one of the Italian brand’s hallmarks. Recarlo works harmoniously and meticulously to create unique and distinctive jewellery, enhancing light through a diamond’s sparkle, and alongside expert gemmologists to obtain stones from Russian mines according to the highest quality standards.

Heart-shaped cuts have become one of the brand’s icons through its beautiful pieces devoted to couples

Recarlo was founded by an Italian family in 1967. The brand redesigned its image in 2015, staying true to its history, highlighting Italian craftsmanship and developing ambitious goals with values and images to inspire a new creative process.

Recarlo’s white gold and diamond jewellery collections are designed to celebrate all of life’s emotions

In 2020, it reached an important milestone when it obtained the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) certificate, thus advancing significantly on its path to sustainable growth. This consolidates both its own reputation and that of its suppliers and customers, strengthening its vision from an ethical, social and environmental standpoint and reiterating its respect for human rights, from extraction of the raw material to sale of the final product.

As a jeweller, we are pleased to work with a highly renowned brand that upholds admirable unique values. We therefore offer the best of this jewellery brand at our shops and invite you to see the latest collection called Anniversary Love, which speaks to the heart through the heart.
