Mosaic

For many, travelling far and wide is a way of being.
As such, ethnic inspirations are defining mosaic designs worth investing in. TrendVision identifies ‘avant-garde exoticism’ as a top trend for 2015 and beyond. High-karat yellow gold is the metal of choice, as it accents gemstones and rose-cut diamonds that make up intricate mosaics. Enamel becomes wearable art with pendants and earrings.
