Iridescent Jewellery

Is it possible to embed a natural phenomenon into a piece of luxury jewellery? Tateossian has captured the rainbow and turned it into a wearable spectacle with the new collection of iridescent accessories. With Spring starting to bud, your style could use a colourful update and iridescence is the trend to look out for. This opalescent finish is making an appearance in everything from Gen Z street style to luxury jewellery brands. 

The Greek goddess Iris lent her name to the word iridescence. Her divine duty was to carry messages to the other gods on Olympus and she executed her commitment in the upmost style — by taking a rainbow staircase. So, when you add a piece of iridescence to your outfit, you are also adding an element of divinity. When an iridescent piece catches the light, even with a casual gesture, it’s easy to see the allure. 

Here is the top Tateossian selection for luxury iridescent jewellery:

Kaleidoscope collection

This collection combines the spectrum of iridescent colour with a fascinating tool — the kaleidoscope. The kaleidoscope is well known for its shifting colours and shapes when rotated. When twisted, turned and tumbled, the pieces in this collection catch the light in a mystical way. Their defined shapes are similar to the shaped shards of glass that create the kaleidoscope illusion. This coupled with the iridescent finish makes these pieces a marvel to not only wear but watch. 

This collection begins with the Iridescent stainless steel Kaleidoscope chain — a thin stainless steel chain that measures 26 inches in length. This piece is a good introduction to those wanting to add colour in a subtle and sophisticated way. It can be played down if it is paired with another solid metal necklace, preferably something with a silver or gold finish. That way you can balance out the rainbow tones if you wish.

For those ready to turn the kaleidoscope and see what style possibilities it reveals, you needn’t look far. The rest of the collection holds the Kaleidoscope amulet ring, the Kaleidoscope amulet necklace and the Kaleidoscope amulet bracelet. As far as men’s designer jewellery goes, these pieces are flamboyant in the most polished way. They retain a classic shape while the iridescent finish makes them one of a kind. But they have an added layer to them. Engraved on these pieces are three protective symbols: Fatima’s hand, the Scarab beetle and the evil eye. This mixed along with the iridescent finish creates a double dose of divinity and symbolism.

Elements collection

The Elements collection is so named because it combines Tateossian’s signature motifs. The Elements bangle and Pop Elements bracelet, both found in the collection, may come in other finishes but none are as extraordinary as the iridescent iteration. 

The Elements bangle incorporates a double effect gear style that the iridescent surface accentuates. When the wrist is turned, the 3D effect comes to life and appears to move when the light catches it. This bangle is a unisex piece that is easily worn alone or can be incorporated into a stack as the featured item. It’s available in two sizes: small and medium.

The aluminium pop clasp is a Tateossian trademark that the Pop Elements bracelet elevates with the rainbow exterior. This bracelet is the way to "hack" layer as it incorporates two chains layered together. It achieves the same effect effortlessly. It comes in three sizes: small (17cm), medium (18 cm) and large (19.5cm). This piece is truly the "pop" of extravagance that your personal collection needs.
