At home, with my family, we don’t really give each other presents at Christmas time, because we celebrate St Nicolas in the Netherlands instead, but I was still very spoiled and got a couple of lovely presents friends!
One of the presents I got was a gorgeous personalised silver charm by Monica Vinader. Shame on me but I’d never really heard of this brand before. Turns out that Monica, a Spanish born, UK jewellery designer is very popular amongst the celebs with an ever-growing stylish following including Cameron Diaz, Claudia Shiffer, Keira Knightly and Elle MacPherson.
“From a strong desire to wear jewellery in all the varied moments of life, Monica Vinader brings us pieces that balance elegance and luxury with practical and simple designs. Silver and 18 Carat Gold is hand set with semi precious stones, bespoke cut and faceted to showcase their personality. The jewellery reflects the designer’s passion for the shapes and colours found in nature, her search for the timelessness of the simple form.”
Monica Vinader is a regular these days in glossy magazines such as Vogue, Harpers, Elle and Grazia and now lucky little me owns a beautiful personalised charm by the brand!
My flatmate got me a small round pendant in sterling silver that she got engraved for me! You can wear the pendant on a necklace, bracelet or combine it with a Monica Vinader chain adding more pendants or stones as you please, this way designing your own necklace (link)
I love my ‘Roxy Rocks’ charm! I’m pairing it here with my Tiffany & Co bracelet!
Had you heard of Monica Vinader before?
There are definitely a few items on her site that I’d love to make my own….
What a beautiful charm and a lovely gift from your friend, bet you were delighted.
I have a ring from Monica Vinader, she has some stunning pieces.
