Tiesh, one of Sri Lanka’s leading contemporary jewellers, celebrated the quintessential Sri Lankan woman with the launch of a dazzling range of imported Italian filigree jewellery with intricate and exquisite craftsmanship.
The exclusive champagne soirée at its flagship showroom at 253, RA de Mel Mawatha was an exclusive Ladies-Only event, to mark International Women’s Day and celebrated its loyal female clients who have steadfastly supported them over the past year.
“This is a collection specially imported from the best Italian manufacturers with the modern Sri Lankan lady in mind. Every piece is unique and totally different to the other. In fact what’s interesting about this collection is its special transformative aspect, where for instance a piece could be worn either as a necklace or a bracelet. Our very special ring which transforms into a bangle is by far the hottest item from our new collection and, I believe, a must have this season,” said De Fonseka.
This dazzling Italian filigree collection comprises necklaces, bracelets, earrings, pendants and rings, all of which bring out the sheer intricacy and timeless appeal of the magic of filigree work. With the special transformative jewellery too, it is quite different to the other collections that Tiesh generally showcases.
“This collection has been created with the intention of capturing the raw beauty of pure gold. Most items in the new collection are in 22kt and 18kt Gold - Yellow, White and the ever-so-popular Rose Gold. Small wonder then that this collection both tantalises and appeals to the visual and creative senses of the discerning woman,” De Fonseka added.
