Spellbinding Valentine Jewelry

Feb 4

Pretty in punk

Valentine's Day jewelry is sweet but let's spice it up. Give and get jewels that burst with passion. This selection honors the most fiery romances in history: Napoleon and Josephine, Cleopatra and Mark Antony, Romeo and Juliet; twin flames that burned so brightly they became all-consuming. Now that's romance. Love in the heart's light and darkness with these gorgeous gothic pieces.

(Cue soundtrack: Siouxsie and the Banshees.)

**La Dame du Lac**

Inspired by the enchantresses of King Arthur, this heart-shaped pendant is extraordinary. With engravings of flowers etched into the blackened metal and vines slithering between diamonds and topaz, this medieval charm evokes the armor of sexy knights.
Charm Mini Coeur La Dame du Lac Collection in gold, topaz, diamonds, and distressed silver $5,600 at Elie Top

Arman Sarkisyan 1.jpg — **Cupid's Arrow**

This bangle displays one of Valentine's Day's most iconic symbols—the heart—with a twist. Designer Arman Sarkisyan wanted to create a wearable work of art that expressed feelings and emotions in a tangible form: the catalyst that is Cupid's bow.
Cupid's arrow bangle in gold, oxidized silver, diamonds, and pink sapphire, $13,950 at Arman Sarkisyan.

Theodora Warre Gold Plated Sterling Silver & Black Rhodium Quartz Crystal Bow Ring £350 www.theodorawarre.eu-1.jpg — **Crystal Bow**

A sharp interpretation of the ladylike bow by London-based free spirit Theodora Warre. Jagged edges and an emboldened black rhodium pavé setting add rigidity to this feminine ring.

PN487-BNQ-YG-1[3].jpg — **Rebel Night**

An advocate of transparent stone sourcing and ethically-sourced diamonds, Suzanne Kalan takes the emblem of love and turns it into a bold symbol of rebellion. With mismatched carved stones set in contrasting yellow gold, this necklace is a poetic paradox.

Queen of pearls Melanie Georgacopoulos has created a pair of earrings traditional in material yet avant-garde in shape and setting. Shifting blue and purple hues hide in the facets of baroque pearls.

**Leaf Ring**

The jeweler for *Snow White and the Huntsman* and *Game of Thrones*, Cathy Waterman is inspired by nature. Case in point: this romantic ring. Wildflowers teamed with matte black oxidized silver, diamonds, and a deep pink Mozambican ruby is out of a fairy tale.
Leaf ring in gold, diamonds, and Mozambican ruby, $9,568 at Cathy Waterman
