EAU DE GLACIER #12022

A glacier is a large mass of ice produced by the accumulation of snow and snow, packed and compressed snow. The water from the glaciers is incredibly pure. Indeed, these are composed of ice that can date back more than 12,000 years, a time when pollution phenomena were not yet a reality.

The consequence is that the purity of this water is exceptional because it is trapped in the ice. Due to the effects of human activity on climate change, global average temperatures have increased at an unprecedented rate over the past two centuries. With warmer temperatures and falling snowfall, many glaciers have melted in a shorter time than necessary to replenish the ice mass. If this process continues, sea level rise is expected to affect millions of people around the world, in coastal regions and on islands. We are increasingly aware of the devastating effects of global warming.

There is an urgent need for change and for governments to put in place measures to limit the damage. Everyone will have to make choices and sacrifices to help the planet in its period of accelerated transformation.

I wanted to pay tribute to these majestic glaciers, which are disappearing faster and faster and remind us of the urgency to act. By creating this bracelet in shades of marine aqua, white and a touch of crystal, you can easily imagine the snow, ice and melting glacier water. I also see the crystalline purity of its water and the brilliance of the ice in the sun...

Let us pay tribute to these noble and imposing glaciers, venerable guardians of the history of our Earth...

 Coral reefs dazzle with their natural beauty. They are found everywhere, even where they are not expected. In recent years, scientists have discovered coral reefs off Norway, as well as at significant depths in the Mediterranean. The total area of all coral reefs on our planet represents less than 0.25% of the total marine environment. Yet it is estimated that nearly two million different species live in, on and around the world's reefs. It is where a quarter of the fish in our oceans grow, including some species that we are used to eating. This biodiversity is fundamental. As a source of both income and food, it provides irreplaceable services to humanity. In many coastal areas, which are real breakwaters, coral reefs are, for example, a fundamental bulwark against violent natural phenomena such as cyclones, typhoons or hurricanes.

Yet, it is estimated that about a quarter of the world's coral reefs have already suffered irreversible damage, and that two thirds are seriously threatened. In question, again and again are human activities that are gradually degrading marine habitats. Corals, true jewels of the oceans, are now in great danger and the consequences would be disastrous.

I am very sensitive to this sad tragedy and I wanted to highlight the beauty of these corals by creating a bracelet with shades of coral, very pale smoky grey and white and silver.

Let us preserve these natural beauties, for the good of all!

DOUCEUR DU MATIN #12024 

 What could be more magical than a gentle morning surrounded by the beauties of waking nature? The birds singing, the golden rays of the sun pushing back the last shadows of the night. At the beginning of this new day, as a birth everything seems possible to us.

A first coffee smells like home, you take the time to enjoy it. The dog wakes up and the cat stretches, why not play a little and make the pleasure last? I like those sweet mornings when life is simpler, more beautiful too.
There is no hurry, we take the time to live and breathe deeply. With your hair still tousled, you put on a jacket and walk around, feet in the grass beaded with morning dew.

The mist gradually dissipates and gives way to daylight; we breathe this air which smells like grass and nectar of flowers... For all these sweets and more, I was inspired by these thoughts and images to create this bracelet in the colours of grass, lichen, and the rays of the sun at dawn...

Take as much as you can sweet moments like this one to simply do yourself good....

SAVEURS DE L’INDE #12025  

 Indian cuisine is certainly the one that uses the most spices in the world. Spices are found in all Indian dishes, in many desserts and drinks. Spices are really omnipresent in Indian cuisine! They are found on market stalls first, where perfumes and colours mix to infinity. Then in the kitchens, where the dishes, from north to south of the country, offer precious combinations of flavours and aromas to revive the senses. In addition to their gustatory qualities, spices have many benefits and are sometimes used ancestrally for their medicinal properties. They have been used since antiquity and are mentioned in the ancient Hindu sacred texts called Vedas.

It would probably take a very large encyclopedia to contain all the cuisine of a country as vast and as old as ours; and to discover, through the recipes, a great diversity of techniques and ingredients. India has a very wide range of spices, most of which are grown on the Indian subcontinent. They can be "spicy" or delicately flavoured. There are a multitude of them, but I could still name a few: Curry, turmeric, ginger, cardamom, mustard seeds, pepper, nutmeg, coriander, red and green chilli, fennel, cloves, star anise, tulsi (star basil), garlic, saffron, cinnamon, fenugreek, tamarind, asafoetida and many more...

it is good to say, there is something for everyone... Each spice can be cooked individually but, more often than not, they are combined into a subtle blend with a unique fragrance that differs from region to region in India. Admiring all these beautiful pictures of the markets in India, I was really inspired by all these bright and frankly appetizing colors.

So I wanted to recreate the reds, oranges and greens of some of these exotic spices in this "Indian flavours" bracelet. I hope to make you want to try this wonderful Indian cuisine that is not trivial; it is simply delicious and your taste buds will thank you!

ESPÉRANCE #12026 

 "In the depths of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the afterlife; just as the seed dreams under the snow, your heart dreams of spring. Trust your dreams, for in them lies the portal of eternity".
- Khalil Gibran Despite the difficulties and hardships of life, there is always in me the hope of a solution, an improvement or even the disappearance of what can make my life unbearable. I believe that humanity must keep the hope of a better life in these uncertain times we are living in. It is probably a matter of faith, of an inner certainty that something will ensure that we will be protected or that a solution will be found to preserve our life on Earth.

For me, pink represents hope, drives out negativity, soothes the soul and brings sweetness and tenderness. For all these reasons, I have chosen to combine several shades of pink with the golden color which gives a result that I like very much.

I hope you will enjoy this jewel filled with beautiful, soothing and reassuring energies!
