Luxury jeweller Sophie Harley launches a new collection named after and inspired by her ancestor Lady Brilliana Harley. A celebrated letter writer, Lady Harley became an unlikely heroine of the English Civil War in the mid 1600's when she loyally defended Wigmore Castle and the other Harley family home at Brampton Bryan, during a 7 week siege by Royalist troops under Charles I.
The Brilliana Collection captures the fashion of the era where ladies adorned themselves with large bold and dramatic gemstones in vivid colours to show their wealth. The necklaces feature strikingly beautiful heart shaped stones of Citrine, Topaz and regal Amethyst, set in 18 carat gold and sprinkled with coloured diamonds. Statement rings showing the pastel colours of the season gives the range a fresh and sparkling appeal, perfect as 'the' summer time essential.
The Brilliana collection is available online at www.sophieharley.com and by appointment at the Sophie Harley Design Studio.
