Is the jewelry, is jewelry, is also a toy!

You can love Hermes pieces of jewelry as a simple, plain, for everyday use items, but while adding to extra surprises. We’re working with the Ministry of chief operating officer of Hermes the world’s jewelry, Ms. Laurence conversation and learned that this has been the subject of attention of the brand’s performance in the field of jewelry can also cause people obsessed. Other products with this brand, like Hermes the characteristics of jewelry is beautiful, and a perfect sense of balance. Here, have become a kind of bright colors is always associated with the traditional classical style and stately elegance of the style associated with these two concepts can be mutually compatible, you may even think they ought to mix together. Designers know how to make a simple, simple, available for daily use items, at the same time can add a touch of extra surprises. We’re working with the Ministry of chief operating officer of Hermes the world’s jewelry, Ms. Laurence conversation and learned that this has been the subject of attention of the brand’s performance in the field of jewelry can also cause people obsessed.

Q: Hermès’s clothing and accessories has a very own style of attitude, it is also true of jewelry design, jewelry design inspired by Hermès does come from?

A: Hermes jewelry designs inspired by equestrian sport’s world, people can see from these works, jewelry, perceived traces of the journey and their world of the horse spent a good time. No matter how subtle these traces, in the design of jewelry, the designer will do their best to retain Mr. Pierre Hardy, who know the expression does not necessarily have to be manifested through the shape outline, the details add a hint is sufficient.

Inspiration is the heart of Hermes, to be easily summed up it is not easy matter. You can see most of the jewelry inspired by horses, horses chewing son, San Antonio, stirrup … … but only from the stirrup on the interception of the next small details, our design director, Mr. Pierre Hardy will be able to create something completely different years, there may be some jewelry you are rough, when one does not find a source of inspiration for the so-called any relevance, it is because Pierre’s interpretation is very cleverly hidden the “mysterious truths” in the design, he can always be for us to design a This tree species than Hermes outside of the existing roots Zhiya a new piece.

Q: Western wear jewelry and Oriental habits and ways are different, do you think Hermès jewelry suitable for Chinese customers buying habits and wear with style?

A: Hermes jewelry styles have good health, vigorous, full of masculine and rugged beauty of the design of such a line is pretty good. We all know that Hermes the world is not originated from the female, for this reason that it was more stylish and modern, which is why this is not necessarily a bad brand is a good thing. For example, we can learn from the men in there, come with a wide variety of goods, and then through the conversion and converted for them into the female character. In the traditional framework, “exceed” the boundaries of sex, which people feel is very loved because it is Hermes bring fresh changes in the traditional side. However, we will be more or less to create a sense of lightness, such as horse jumping and gallop. Light, but quite vigorous strong. How do I properly expressed in the design effect of this contradiction is indeed an exciting challenge. Similarly, this contradiction can also be a more effective use of wear-style reasons, the differences between East and West to wear I believe this can be easily integrated into one, thus defusing. Sometimes, in the design of luxury jewelry, the exaggeration is necessary. The wearer can be subtle use of weight, quantity and size combination of these elements on their own to wear at the same time convey a sense of volume and texture. Of course, because East and West to wear habits and aesthetic differences, we do have some jewelry series, particularly the Asian customers welcome.
