When Tomas Maier designed his latest collection for Bottega Veneta’s Fall/Winter 2013 collection he left no extravagant detail unturned.

What a lucky girl I was to get to preview the curated jewelry collection by Talisman Gallery at Harvey Nicks before opening time. Like a fat kid who loves cake I got to have the entire store to myself to try on anything I pleased. Based out of London, Talisman Gallery showcases the very best in contemporary gold jewelry from around the world. All morning I got to drape my neck with delicate 18k gold necklaces by Natasha Dahlberg, pile on bracelets, and try on gold and gemstone drop earrings from LA DiOSA.

Nobody has an eye for bold and brave gemstones like Lesley Schiff who founded Talisman Gallery in 1983. For over 30 years Talisman has been on showcase at Harvey Nichol’s, selling the works of many designers from all around the world. As opposed to being sold online Lesly believes “The best way to purchase jewelry is to handle it in person, look at it and try on each piece.”
