Passion For Paisley


Passion For Paisley

The swirling teardrop shape first associated with shawls, quilts, and rugs has found its way into the imaginations and collections of leading luxury jewelers.

The paisley motif, which first originated in Persia in the 1500’s, was used in textile design to decorate royal interiors and court garments. The pattern was soon adopted in India with delicate and intricate floral and foliage motifs.

For the new season, jewelry designers are reinterpreting paisleys found in embroidery fabrics and lace motifs. They are spinning these looks, which range from richly flowery and colorful to embellished yet subtle, into gold with diamond and gemstone accents. Designers also borrow their influences from the ornamental saris and silks of India and the cashmere shawls from Kashmir.
