A Pair of Jay Strongwater Charms
Item Details
A pair of whimsical Jay Strongwater charms. One charm features a bejeweled pink pansy with a glitzy green dragon fly that sits on the petal. The other charm is a hummingbird sporting green and turquoise crystals.
Jay Strongwater’s love of the elegant but vividly bejeweled object—has led him on a journey through the worlds of fashion and home furnishings. At the age of 23, Strongwater met designer Oscar de la Renta, with whom he began to collaborate on jewelry designs for runway shows. For the 1994 holiday season, Strongwater sent gifts of jewel-encrusted filigree picture frames to friends, fashion editors, and buyers, who immediately fell in love with the design. In essence, Strongwater created his own niche: the jeweler turning his meticulous eye and art toward a world beyond a woman’s wrists, neck, and ears.
