Savana Collection Launching - May 2019
On May 12th, Paloma Sanchez, The Art of Jewelry, launched its Savana Collection, bringing the African spirit to China. The event was held at Nali Patio, Sanlitun, Beijing, with the presence of guests who are brand enthusiasts. Continuing to enhance the natural beauty of gems, the Savana Collection by Paloma Sanchez, with bright and bold colors that represent Africa, celebrated its successful launch on an early summer afternoon.
“Africa has always fascinated me. Its precious gemstones often inspire me,” says Paloma Sanchez, the creative director and gem huntress. “Africa is not just rich in different minerals but also in its culture and history. The elegance, wildness, serenity, and pride of the continent all inspire my designs, allowing me to create one-of-a-kind pieces.”
Paloma Sanchez not only uses a combination of warm and bright colors to represent the African spirit in her new collection but also incorporates patterns that remind us of the mysterious Sahara, feisty tigers, and the unique and amazing Rose Lake, among others.
Doves of Fire: a necklace is made of Montana agate from USA, fire opal from Mexico, 5,5 -carat round brilliant cut diamonds, total weight 0,25 carats, all set in 18kt yellow gold. It represents two flying doves holding a Fiery Africa into a journey of bright future.
Savana: jasper, yellow and orange sapphires from Sri Lanka, spessartite garnet from Tanzania, 18-karat gold plated silver earrings. Inspired by African Savana, one can feel the elegance of beautiful scenery as well as the serenity.
Antilope: a pore of earrings combining curves and straight lines, altering the paradigm of gem cutting. This piece uses carefully selected and polished agate from Montana, USA, on both ends, while the middle connecting them is a round sphere, one of rarest gems in the world, considered a collector’s gem.
Panthera: a pendant made of agate with a natural leopard pattern, along with turquoise on both edges, and sealed with mother-of pearl at the back.
Black Moon: another unique set of earrings that is made of silver oxide, citrine and 22kt gold. Set in 18kt yellow gold, the back of the earrings is inlaid with mother-of-pearl. The curved surface is smooth and full, shining in a natural and lustrous manner. The earrings represent the sandy desert, the famous African Sahara, encapsulating the sand’s changing colors through night and day inside a crescent.
Pink Lake: a pair of maiden-heat hot pink colored earrings featuring Pink Lake. This hot pink drop-shaped cut cobalt calcite, with gold-plated natural crystals and square-cut pink sapphires straight from Sri Lanka, all set in 18kt yellow gold. This bright color is reminiscent of the famous Rose Lake in Senegal, at the western end of the African continent. Its romantic name comes from its French name, Lac Rose.
Magic River: a ring with Mexican opal in matrix, tsavorite garners and sapphires pave, set in 18kt yellow gold. The natural landscape pattern represents the magic rainbow river surrounded by mountains, leaving the timeless elegance to be memorized.
Temperate Garden: a pair of earrings with pink opal from Peru, oval cut peridot from China, set in 18kt yellow gold. The beautiful pink flowers/leaves and green peridot trees form a fruitful temperate garden.

Sahara: a ring, with Drusy quartz 18kt gold infused, 18kt gold side cave like enhancement, all set in 18kt gold and 925 silver. It strongly reminds of Sahara Desert with mystery cave in Africa.
Pink Flamingo: a pair of earrings made of pink opal from Peru, blue chalcedony from Brazil, 22kt gold layer, set in 18kt yellow gold. To think of the Lake Nakuru in Kenya, there will be a flock of pink flamingos coming into your mind.
