Pippa Small Unveils ‘Venus’ Collection Inspired by Roman Goddess of Love

London—Renowned jewelry brand Pippa Small has unveiled its latest creation, the captivating “Venus” collection, drawing inspiration from the Roman goddess of love.

The birth of Venus, depicted in the iconic painting “The Birth of Venus” by Sandro Botticelli, serves as the thematic foundation for this exquisite line. In the painting, Venus emerges from a scallop shell, freshly born from the sea foam.

Pippa Small, the brand’s owner and designer, was struck by the timeless allure of the goddess and sought to capture her essence in this collection, employing abalone shells and 18-karat yellow gold.

“Venus, born from a scallop shell amidst the ocean’s foam, emerged as the perfect muse for this collection, symbolizing beauty and grace,” explained Small. “The abalone shells, with their soft hues reminiscent of a sunset over the ocean, embody the delicate interplay of pink, blue, and green tones that dance and shimmer with each wave.”

Comprising 14 distinct pieces, the collection ranges in price from $650 to $7,080. The abalone shells utilized in these creations are responsibly sourced from the Pacific Ocean, obtained as byproducts of abalone meat harvesting, ensuring sustainable practices, as affirmed by the company.

Each piece is meticulously handcrafted by local artisans in Jaipur, India, infusing every creation with artisanal expertise and cultural richness.

Pippa Small Jewelry is committed to ethical practices and sustainability, utilizing Fairtrade and Fairmined materials to support secure livelihoods in conflict-affected regions worldwide.

The brand’s dedication to responsible sourcing and ethical standards has earned accolades, including the prestigious Leadership in Responsible Practice Award from the Initiatives in Art and Culture (IAC) conference. This esteemed award recognizes individuals within the jewelry industry who have demonstrated significant contributions to ethical sourcing and responsible practices in the gem and jewelry trade.

Pippa Small’s “Venus” collection not only exemplifies artistic brilliance and craftsmanship but also underscores the brand’s unwavering commitment to social and environmental responsibility, offering jewelry enthusiasts an opportunity to adorn themselves with pieces that tell a story of beauty, grace, and conscientiousness.
