Lagos' New Collection Is a Tribute to Its Bangkok Studio
The "Lagos Studio" capsule collection offers elevated statement styles with eclectic designs.
The offering is elevated and focused on highest-quality materials, precious gemstones, and handcraftsmanship, the brand said.
The one-of-a-kind and limited-edition pieces feature rubies, diamonds, emeralds, and sapphires, with and alongside pieces in 18-karat gold and sterling silver.
Founder and Creative Director Steven Lagos sourced the gemstones for the collection.
Steven often integrates the stories of his sourcing journey into his designs, which are also influenced by his passion for art and travel.
The pieces in the Lagos Studio collection reflect eclectic designs inspired by the tastir patterns of Morocco, the lotus flowers of Vietnam, the traditions of the Far East, and the classic European savoir-faire.
While the brand is always innovating its signature Caviar beaded design, it said the Studio collection is meant to be a more exclusive option with statement styles that are still true to the brand’s timeless, sophisticated Caviar design.
The Studio collection is a tribute to the Lagos Bangkok studio, which the company said has influenced the trajectory of its heritage through experience, culture, and “unparalleled craftsmanship.”
The bench jewelers and artisans have worked with Steven for more than a decade to infuse traditional techniques with unconventional design, collaborating to create pieces that are bold, vibrant, and captivating.
“For over 10 years, I’ve worked side-by-side with our Bangkok team to develop what’s new and what’s next,” said Steven. “Their talent and commitment are unmatched; this special collection speaks to their unique contributions.”
The Studio collection will tour Lagos stores across the country, showcased in exclusive events at premier Lagos partners including Bloomingdale’s, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, and select independent jewelers.
Each location will only have the collection in-store for a limited time, though Bloomingdale’s 59th Street and Bloomingdale’s South Coast Plaza will have a seasonal showcase of styles available through the end of the year.
