Larry Jewelry and Lotus Arts de Vivre introduces dazzling Asian-inspired jewellery

Larry Jewelry CEO Mandy Lam and Lotus Arts de Vivre founder Rolf van Beuren jointly hosted an intimate party to unveil a stunning new collection of Asian-inspired jewellery and accessories. We caught up with Lam to learn about the collection, and what’s next for the Hong Kong jewellery company

How did the partnership between Larry Jewelry and Lotus Arts de Vivre come about?

Larry Jewelry has established itself as one of the city’s finest jewellery retailers for over fifty years. This year we implemented a new ‘Silk Road’ strategy where we will bring unique jewellery pieces from every region between China to Egypt.

Thailand was the first target of this Silk Road strategy. We scoured the country for the best jewellery house with unique designs that our clientele haven’t encountered before. Lotus Arts de Vivre and its stunning Asian-inspired creations perfectly fit our bill.

What is your favourite piece from the Lotus Arts de Vivre collection on display?

I love the Wing Scarab Cluster Earrings with pink tourmaline diamonds. Its amazing green colour was inspired by the scarab beetles prized by ancient Egyptians.

What other partnerships can we look forward to from Larry Jewelry?

The next instalment of our Silk Road plan focuses on China. We’re working with some extremely skilled jewellers to create a new collection with Chinese-inspired pieces. I don’t want to reveal too much, but I can tell you that pandas are one of our main themes.

What else does Larry Jewelry have planned for the future?

As you know, Larry Jewelry pieces are usually reserved for the city’s elite. Each item is only accessible to the wealthiest segment of society and worn only on special occasions. Next year we are aiming to launch a new line of jewellery that will deliver high quality designs at a more affordable price, items that you can wear everyday. This will allow us to target an even bigger market segment.

Thank you.

The Lotus Arts de Vivre collection will be available at Larry Jewelry until the end of December this year.
