‘Astonishing creations with versatile and precious platinum’

Winner of the Best Platinum Jewellery of the Year by Retail Jeweller Awards

AWARD WINNING PLATINUM FRENCH BANGLE BY ORRA

2nd December, 2013: At the recently concluded Retail Jeweller Awards 2013, ORRA added another jewel to its crown by winning the “Best Platinum Jewellery of the Year Award”. ORRA’s award winning platinum design is the first of its kind that used the art of paper quilling in jewellery design form. This marvelous piece aptly titled the ‘Sands of Time’ nurtured in precious and timeless platinum highlights the metal’s remarkable pliability to craft a wondrous piece in jewellery. Inspired by the beautiful creation of nature – the sand dunes, this inventive platinum bracelet looks like a sea of sand with sparkling water flowing in between in the form of diamonds.

The choice of metal enables the creation of a meticulous design pattern using the quilling technique to represent the sand dunes, an art form, which has never been captured in metal before and has only been used in paper art or plastic form. The platinum French bangle has different diamond shapes in prong setting in between rows of fine quilling on either side. The design theme is an exotic blend of the ancient and modern world with much refinement and reconstruction. The piece captures textures in a contemporary way, while maintaining the classic edge of platinum.

Platinum is versatile, with remarkable qualities that have led to astonishing creations. From Fabergé to Cartier, the world’s greatest jewellery designers have always preferred working with platinum. Its remarkable pliability allows it to be drawn out to a fine wire, and enables the creation of the most complex and breath-taking designs.

Adding to the glory, Mr. Vijay Jain, CEO, ORRA says, “This recognition of the ‘2013 Best Platinum Design Award’ for a breathtaking platinum creation, brings further accolades for the brand and yet again proves that innovation and craftsmanship is the key to success. The elegant platinum French bangle is a perfect paradigm of platinum’s remarkable qualities. Working with an eternal and versatile metal like platinum, allows craftsmen to explore innovative design themes, making the metal an ideal choice for jewelers. ORRA pieces are carefully monitored to ensure that the final outcome is a blend of design perfection and highly skilled craftsmanship and we cater to today’s consumer with our contemporary jewellery designs.”
