FOCUS 焦点 18 | JNA July/August 2025 The jewellery industry is thriving and evolving, thanks to technological advancements and new cutting-edge techniques in jewellery production. Manufacturers and designers continually push boundaries to create innovative, visually stunning pieces. The Flos Motus Collection of Hong Kong-based Ikku Fine Jewellery exemplifies the fusion of artistry and superior craftsmanship. Inspired by the beauty of nature, the collection captures refreshing greens and pinks from land alongside mesmerising blues of the sky and the ocean. “One of the key design inspirations is sweet pea. Its delicate petals, which embody the grace of both flowers and butterflies, are reflected in the intricate shapes and colours of each piece,” said brand founder Yukking Hui. Colour gradience Jewellery in the Flos Motus Collection is further enhanced by gradient-coloured rhodium-plated gold, which shifts in hue to complement gemstone colours. “This intricate technique requires a high level of craftsmanship,” remarked Hui. “If a mistake occurs during the production process, we must remove all rhodium pigments and restart completely. Therefore, each piece is meticulously crafted. The collection embodies elegance and precision, a testament to our dedication to innovative jewellery designs.” According to Hui, all pigments undergo testing to ensure they are hypoallergenic. “While these tests increase production costs and time, we are committed to producing beautiful pieces using only the finest materials,” she explained. An internationally renowned designer, Hui won the silver award in the A’ Design Award & Competition 2023 and took home the Best of Show Award in the Open Group of the 23rd Hong Kong Jewellery Design Competition. Her passion for jewellery design drives her creative innovation. “The jewellery industry has faced numerous challenges in recent years amid uncertain business conditions and rising gold prices. Innovative, captivating designs are needed to entice consumers to purchase jewellery,” she said. “I am thrilled to introduce the gradient-coloured rhodium technique for the first time in our collection, bringing something new to the market.” Caelum Petalina earrings in 18-karat white gold with diamonds and blue sapphires from Ikku Fine Jewellery’s Flos Motus Collection 来自Ikku Fine Jewellery Flos Motus系列的Caelum Petalina 18K白金耳环,镶有蓝宝石和钻石 Cuffs of the Princess of the Rivers in 3D-printed platinum from the Tùsaire Collection by Maeve Gillies 来自 Maeve Gillies Tùsaire系 列的河流公主3D 打印铂金开口手镯 Rosarum ring in 18-karat rose gold with diamonds, pink sapphires and tsavorites from Ikku Fine Jewellery’s Flos Motus Collection 来自Ikku Fine Jewellery Flos Motus 系列的Rosarum 18K玫瑰金和戒指, 镶有粉红色蓝宝石、沙弗来石和钻石 MODERN JEWELLERY DESIGN Revolutionising 革新珠宝设计 | Sharon Kwok 郭芷雯 and Olivia Quiniquini 程爱莉 | Advanced technologies and techniques are driving breakthroughs in jewellery production, yielding fascinating collections that meld ingenuity and artistic expression. 先进的科技与技术革新,让设计师的奇思妙想得以实践,也驱动了珠宝制造业不断突破界限;创造力 与艺术表现完美结合,成就了一件又一件创意非凡的惊艳杰作。
