Coco Chanel and Pearls – trends continued

admin — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 15:04:06 +0000

It is well known that Coco Chanel undeniably loved pearls and became a trendsetter adorning her attire with her pearl creations. As Christian Dior so eloquently described her saying: “Coco with a black pullover and ten rows of pearls, she revolutionized fashion.” Her preference was to wear them in “Rope Lengths” of 45 inches or more (see our service page about pearl lengths), dripping with elegance and looking sensuously sexy. For those looking for the complete pearl wardrobe, this length is a must. This look confirms as she so inspirationally says; elegance does not consist in putting on a new dress. Pearls continue to be very much in fashion also since the recent film on the ‘Grande Dame’ of fashion.
Our Coco Chanel style pearl necklaces are perfectly white subtle shimmering freshwater pearls (8 mm) strung up to a 1.5m necklace offering you endless styling possibilities. You will see because of the versatility of pearls how they will become a long time companion in your styling accessories.
One of the many stories – it is said that Chanel was dancing the Charleston in the 20’s and her two meter long necklace broke scattering pearls all over the floor requiring a dozen men in smoking jackets scurrying to get them for her. Our pearls are meticulously strung and individually knotted, so you can dance, dance and dance

Exactly 7 years ago we started to sell our jewellery designs in a 15 square meter warehouse on a parking lot of Taikang Road. At that time, Taikang Road was Shanghai’s ‘old’ art district where one would find a wide range of Chinese calligraphies and traditional ink paintings.

It was also home to a tight community of small independent foreign designers and artists. Over the course of a few years, the area flourished and became a new centre for the arts, crafts and design in Shanghai. We moved from the warehouse to a nice loft style showroom in one of the main lanes of what came to be known as Tian-zi-fang.

In spring this year we opened the doors of our second shop in Shanghai, allowing us to better serve our local customers. Meanwhile ‘marion carsten’ jewellery is also sold in several stores throughout China and Bangkok.

Many, many of our customers are ‘wanderers’ – expatriates, business travellers, foreign correspondents and globetrotters. Over the years, numerous emails reached us with the same question: “Can I order?”

It was possible but complicated for both sides, which lead to the idea of creating an online boutique.

Now,, you can order – easily and conveniently.
So – welcome (back) ot our (new) shop! Have a look at www.marioncarsten.com! You might discover many new designs and we hope you like it.
Your feedback is very much welcomed and for sure, your recommendation to friends too.

Yours,

Marion
