Passion with the Minaudière collection

TVRRINI presents limited edition Minaudière locket pendants to convey our precision and sense for elegance. Inspired by the romantic concept of lockets and refinement of vanity cases, each pendant transform to make exquisite pick-me-ups. 

At TVRRINI, we believe in developing classic jewellery that tells an individual story, while connecting to those who are courageous and unbound by rules.

Where glamour meets modernism

According to tradition, lockets were a way to store photos or messages from one's dearest family members or spouses for comfort away from home during turbulent times. The wearer could make their accessories even more personalised by bearing inscriptions onto the designs.

By the Art Deco period, other accessories with distinct shapes took fashionable women to new heights of expressing their love for beautiful objects. In France the rising production of the handbag and minaudière (a type of vanity case) in one sense liberated women so that they could easily carry their valuables with style. Our collection embodies sophistication, inspired by the timeless elegance of luxury accessories.

Food is often seen as the key to forming connections, with many believing that sharing a delicious meal can bring people closer together. The approach of spring inspired the Spring 2022 photoshoot, where luscious red, purple and green tones are featured against a rich chocolate cake and punctuated by handsome flowers. It's the perfect time to bring out bold imagery to coincide with Valentine's Day, portraying the sweetness of emotion between partners.

Emotions are expressed in various ways by different people. In addition to the indulgence, we strive to reflect that fluidity as well. Imagine a container of water, always adjusting to its environment, reflecting the dynamic nature of relationships. Water serves as a backdrop to highlight the intricate details and craftsmanship of the pendants. Light reflections, transparency of the backdrop, and opaque textures of gemstones against gold, create a visually captivating contrast.

By showcasing pendants against a water background, the images convey a message of harmony and balance. It speaks to the idea of finding beauty in the fusion of different aesthetics. Each pendant becomes a focal point, drawing the viewer's eye and inviting them to appreciate the intricate details up close.

The pendants resemble ladies' handbags and shows a balance of colour made possible by delicate artistry, demanding high precision. Through an inlay technique, gemstones are cut to fit snugly within the frames while pavé set diamonds accentuate the surface with more sparkle. With elegant latches and gemstones, our meticulous attention to details adds a lovely touch to the design.
