It is a refined balance of cutting-edge engineering and timeless beauty – redefining what modern fine jewellery can be,” said SRJ. The company’s latest releases are inspired by five design directions – lightweight luxury, natureinspired forms, colour-rich gemstone fusions, minimalist moderns and tech-driven efficiency. Following its debut at Jewellery & Gem WORLD Hong Kong last September, Orient Odyssey is once again dropping anchor at Jewellery & Gem ASIA Hong Kong to celebrate the “Queen of Gems.” This rebooted project – OO 2.0 by Informa’s Jewellery & Gem Knowledge Community – traces the pearl’s journey from mollusc to haute joaillerie, enhanced by interactive experiences. Visitors may enjoy expert demonstrations of pearl extraction from oysters and mussels, alongside scheduled pearl-facetting sessions by award-winning lapidarist Kazuhito Komatsu of the Komatsu Cutting Factory. Kazuhito is showcasing “Hanashinju” (Japanese for “gorgeous pearl”) – the facetted “Flower Pearl” invented in 1992 by his father, master diamond cutter Kazuo Komatsu. Located at 3M260, OO 2.0 is open from 11:00am till 5:00pm from June 19 to 21. On June 22, the exhibit closes at 4:00pm. Its dedicated photo booth operates from 12 noon to 5:00pm throughout JGA’s four-day run.
