Cece Jewellery’s New Fruit Jewels Celebrate Life’s Sweetness
The “For the Love of Fruits” collection features five fruit pendants, each holding a different meaning.
Clockwise from top left, the “A Fig For Temptation,” “A Peach For Abundance,” “A Pear For Beauty,” “A Cherry For Desire,” and “A Lemon For Purity” charms in 18-karat yellow gold with champlevé enamel and diamonds ($9,563 each)
London—Cece Jewellery has released its summer capsule collection, titled “For the Love of Fruits.”
The collection is “a joyful celebration of life’s fleeting sweetness,” the brand said, as each fruit featured holds its own meaning.
There is a pear for beauty, a fig for temptation, a lemon for purity, a peach for abundance, and a cherry for desire.
“Our For the Love of Fruit collection was inspired by the visual language of fruit in renaissance paintings, and how each fruit has deeply symbolic meanings—there is more to the eye,” said Cece Fein Hughes, founder of Cece Jewellery.
The five fruits are depicted in hand-painted champlevé enamel on 18-karat yellow gold pendants with a brushed finish, alongside star-set diamond accents, a scalloped pavé diamond border, and an engraving on the reverse, which has the name of the fruit and what it symbolizes.
The hero piece of the collection is the “For the Love of Fruit” necklace featuring all five fruit pendants on an 18-karat yellow gold belcher chain, along with four brilliant-cut diamond heart charms and crescent moon charms.
The heart charms symbolize self-love, while the crescent moon charms are a reminder that the present moment is always the most precious, according to the Cece Jewellery website.
The six-piece collection includes five pendants and a necklace, with the price of the charms starting at $9,563 and the necklace retailing for $60,839.
It debuted on June 17 and is available on the Cece Jewellery website.
Aside from Cece Jewellery’s offerings, fruit motifs have become popular as designers release their collections for this summer—Jessica McCormack being one of them with her “Fruit Salad” collection.
