Simply Abu Dhabi XXII

2 5 5 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I This year the collection expands with an exciting range of pieces that will delight jewellery aficionados. Launched at the 2016 Baselworld watch and jewellery fair, the Nyimp Pendant is a beguiling new design. Nyima pendants are inspired by the architecture and symbolism of stupas – Buddhist shrines in the Himalayas. Architecturally, a stupa represents Buddha’s body and mind, and shows the path to enlightenment. The 18-carat gold pendants are available in two sizes, and can be customised with diamond and gemstone pavé beads. “Nyima pendants continue our tradition of integrating spiritual symbols in our jewellery, andmaking thempersonal through customisation. We hope that dependence will remind the wearer of the Buddha’s teachings,” says Mads. Equally stunning is the new SOS cuff piece. Simple and masculine, the SOS cuff is made of sculpted 18-carat gold and features black diamonds and the Star of Shamballa logo, which plays a central role in the design. For the brothers, the Star of Shamballa is a reminder that humans and stars are made of the same matter. Just like stars, humans emanate heat and light too. “We shine the brightest when we share compassion and smiles. Historically men all over the world, especially kings and warriors, have worn jewellery. Many modern men limit themselves to rings and possibly cufflinks. We would like to encourage modernmen to wear jewellery again. Due to its simple subtle design the SOS cuff is a good first bracelet for men who would like to start wearing more jewellery,” says Mikkel. A new theme presented at Baselworld by Shamballa Jewels was Inner Radiance. The brothers invite you to imagine a lively summer day by the beach, a peaceful but inspired moment that can arouse a soulful change. A colourful burst of emeralds, turquoise, corals and mother of pearl capture the moment. They bring joy to your eyes and celebrate the moment of inner peace and happiness. This image sums up the ethos behind this remarkable brand. The business is inspired by spiritual themes and compassion. The brothers want only that their products bring a measure of happiness and joy into the lives of their customers.
