In an enchanting 19th century Parisian boutique, nestled amongst the many treasures of Rue Saint Honoré, Lydia Courteille is solidifying our wildest jewellery dreams. This month we crave her ‘My Secret Garden’ cocktail ring, a magical mix of black rhodium gold, opal, brown diamonds and green garnets. Priced in the region of £15 000, it will remain in the realm of fantasy for most of us, however her shop and website are a delight to visit for all dreamers. You really must view the entire collection, which is blooming with roses, pumpkins, orchids and fruit; all exquisitely hand crafted out of spellbinding jewels and precious metals. She also has eight further collections which are equally hypnotising and craveworthy. Her boutique has become one of the not-to-miss sights of Paris, enchanting passers by since the 1980′s with its windows themed to their bewitching contents; turquoise, jade, coral, ivory… why not go along and dream a while?
