Philippe Ferrandis Tiger's Eye and Swarovski Crystal Clip On Earrings

Philippe Ferrandis Tiger's Eye and Swarovski Crystal Clip On Earrings featuring a large tiger's eye cabochon with wonderful chatoyancy, surrounded by ten ochre tone Swarovski Crystals, all sitting above an umber tone glass cabochon handcrafted in Bohemia, a delightful combination of autumnal hues. These lovely earrings are 3.3cm tall and 2.3cm at their widest point and together they weigh 15.9g.

They are both signed 'Philippe Ferrandis Paris' in an oval cartouche on the reverse. A talented designer, Philippe grew up in a family of artists who unconditionally shaped his artistic taste and instilled a love of art. However, one of the most striking childhood experiences was a vintage brooch found in his grandmother’s box. From that day, he knew what he would do in the future. In 1986, he became a jewellery designer and quickly became successful and famous.

Noteworthy, Fernandez created jewellery for the characters of historical films and performances. The actresses who wore his jewellery are Isabelle Adjani, Monica Bellucci and many other cinema and theatre actresses. In addition, prestigious French fashion houses such as Nina Ricci and Jean-Paul Gaultier, Pierre BALMAIN and Hubert de GIVENCHY, Chantal THOMAS and Oscar DE LA RENTA collaborated with him. Also, he created capsule collections for Carolina Herrera and Swarovski.

The atelier celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2016. Meanwhile, a few years before this anniversary, the world-famous publishing house Assouline Publishing released a reference book about the master jeweller and his unforgettable works.

Tiger's eye is a stone of protection, Tiger's Eye may also bring good luck to the wearer. It has the power to focus the mind, promoting mental clarity, assisting us to resolve problems objectively and unclouded by emotions. Particularly useful for healing psychosomatic illnesses, dispelling fear and anxiety. Useful for recognising one’s own needs in relation to the needs of others.
