They are twins and have passion for jewels, John and Alain Darbellay, creators of Darbel du Bourg in the |
beginning of the eighties, travelled in several stone's producer countries in order to bring back with |
them the amazing colors which will decorate their creations. |
The line named Shangrila, inspired by their travels in Central Asia, confers to the woman who wear it an |
impression of classicism, dissociated by the paved flexible diamond shapes. |
|
The Dynamic is often created without stones, gold launches out thus in harmonious movements |
underlining the fingers of its holder. |
|
The fluidity of the forms which run in cascade or undulate like the snake, the mobility of the various |
elements of a jewel, or the dynamism of a movement are also the distinctive mark of the two brothers. |
|
During each creation, the jewellers endeavour to release the jewel's emotion which will suscitate a |
dream for the eyes. |
It is at the end of his vocational training, that John Darbellay received from the hands of the Mayor |
of Geneva, the first prize of jewellery 1981. |
|
The collaboration of Alain with important international jewellers gave him access to the higher realms |
of the trade. |
