Verve’s haute picks for the month

FINE AND DANDY
For the male aesthete, Cartier creates a range of accessories that spell pure elegance: black and white chevrons and engraved inverted stitch motifs adorn briefcases, desk diaries, notebooks, single-card holders, pens, lighters, desk clocks, key rings and more. The Pasha collection harks back to the severe grandeur of the best royal traditions. Crafted in camel-coloured crocodile leather, their authenticity is evident in every effortless, flowing line.
Available at the Cartier Boutique, DLF Emporio, New Delhi.
LADY ZINGER
The Imperial, one of Asia’s finest hotels, creates an exceptionally thoughtful programme for its female guests. Under the ‘Eliza’ scheme, named for monarch extraordinaire Queen Elizabeth I of England, single women travellers staking out on their own can now take advantage of The Imperial’s fabulous ladies-only corridor, kitted out with special security, a team of all-lady attendants and customised services to guarantee privacy and solitude. Indulge.
At The Imperial, New Delhi.
ETERNITY BANDS
Platinum – a metal as exceptionally luminous as it is strong. Untouched by wear and tear, unscathed by time and undiminished by the passing of years, platinum rings transcend history itself, and embody the immortal nature of soul-bonds. The metal’s innate strength holds precious stones securely in its elegant grasp. It is this spirit that Platinum Guild International seeks to celebrate, by promoting the beauty of a metal as unique as the love it celebrates.
At Platinum jewellery outlets in major cities across the country.
PRECIOUS TIME
The first and most classic of all oppositions: black and white. Audemars Piguet brings the two hues together in the hypnotically powerful designs of the Royal Oak Offshore chronographs. The modernist visual appeal of the frills-free watches calls out to the woman who dares and is bold, beautiful, and a little impertinent. Sparkle.
Available at Time Avenue Pvt. Ltd., Mumbai & The Helvetica, Chennai.
UNDERWATER LIGHT
Venus rose from the depths of the sea – in Alpana Gujral’s newest jewellery collection, love surfaces from the depths of glowing corals in reds, vermilions and rose, fashioned into exquisitely handcrafted earrings, necklaces, cuffs and cocktails rings set in pure gold and silver. Pearls firmly make their way back into fashion, too. And the veteran designer’s fascination with tourmaline, citrine, aquamarine and other colourful semi-precious stones adds fascinating dimensions to the work. Sink in.
At Alpana Gujral, DLF Emporio, New Delhi.
