At a time when Paris is turning to a 'Vélib' scheme (bikes made available for use in the city) and the sorting of household waste, the 'Spa des marques' press office has brought together some fifteen jewelry designers to address the topic of the jungle,the world's green lung.

The resulting interpretations of this jungle theme were as diverse as the personalities of each designer. The abundance of nature inspired Jean Boggio to create a 'Jardin Extraordinaire' (extraordinary garden) cuff link consisting of a magnificent miniature painting worthy the great painter Douanier Rousseau. Franck Jals decorated an incredible 172 carat opal with bamboo shoots and glints of tourmaline. Louis Edouard Le Jeune reflects the transparency of the jungle with his openwork foliage and subtle layers of emeralds, tsavorites and tourmalines. Eyvia Gioielli compares the reflections of a New Zealand mabe pearl with those of water in a lake, dotted with vegetation.

The magic of tropical flowers is depicted by Nathalie Castro who has created a poisonous flower hologram and by Sylvain Gallier in the form of an imaginary flower in his 'Alba' ring. Alexandre Janot prefers the delicacy of ivory which he contrasts with a 10 carat briolette emerald. Nadine Pagliani draws her inspiration from the femininity of the creepers and dense color of a 70 carat pear peridot. Patrick de Pertat, originally a landscape painter, pays homage to the Banyan, an unusual tree which supports the ruins of the Ankor Vat temple, symbolized in the piece by a 50 carat emerald.

From the jungles of Kipling to the mysterious forests of the Amazon, Spa de Marques and its 15 designers have yet again succeeded in proving that the force of man is not always destructive - we can also create real treasures on this earth!
