Fashion Jewelry by Jeremy Hoye
Jeremy Hoyle is a British born and based fashion jewellery designer and opened his first store in Brighton in 1994. Now, in 2009, he is seen as one of Britains leading fashion jewellery designers. Jeremy Hoyle is a very active fashion jewellery designer and releases new collections regularly throughout the year.
Like many fashion jewellery designers, Jeremy Hoyle specialises in engagement rings and according to the official figures on his website, his ‘Triffid’ range is boasted as one of his best sellers and by looking at the rings it is easy to see why.
The Triffid collection offers engagement rings in very unusual designs. For example the silver Triffid coil ring is made of three loops and is similar to the work of Sarah Jordan’s unusual coil works. The Triffid collection is also quite affordable for a range of stylish fashion jewellery. For example the Triffid simple ring is only £95, the style of the Jeremy Hoye is very similar to some of the fashion jewellery made by Tiffany Co and much less money! Even the coil ring, made of more material and set with more expensive stones, is only £125. Not much at all for well made fashion jewellery.
Jeremy Hoye doesn’t have a set style in his fashion jewellery. His many collections all follow different patterns. For example his Deco collection is very much inspired by the Art Deco movement in British art (something else to note; Jeremy Hoyle is a very British designer). The colours used in the Deco collections are also very remnicient of that time. The purples are dark and the greens either bright or so dark they look black. There are no yellows in the collection or bright reds, only dark magenta reds. The colour scheme in the Deco collection is also very limited and the core material always made of silver.
The Luna collection is again inspired by something completely unconnected to Jeremy Hoye’s other fashion jewellery collections. As indicated by the name, the Luna collection is inspired by the moon and specifically, ‘fantasy moon landscapes’. The colours chosen for the stones in this collection are very natural colours; yellows, clear stones and dark black stones. What is unique about this collection is that it is available in both silver and yellow gold (obviously the yellow gold option will be more expensive). The types of jewellery in this collection are rings and pendants mainly. One of the most interesting items in this collection is the Luna silver diagonal cut ring. The part of the ring that is diagonally cut appears to look like the jagged rocks that may be found on the moon.
