For this week’s edition of Haute Jewelry, we’re looking at two dreamy collections from Gilan: the Journey to Dreams Collection and the Bosphorus Dreams Collection. Here are some highlights from these stunning collections.

The Journey to Dreams Collection follows one of the most famously rich treks in the world: the Silk Road. The collection features the Silk Road’s iconic symbol, the Grand Pheasants. Considered to be status symbols in China since ancient times, this symbol of elegance was transformed by Gilan’s craftsmen into a dazzling creations.

Meanwhile, the Bosphorus Dreams Collection symbolizes the House’s birthplace. The Bosphorus (also known as the Istanbul Strait) is strait of water that forms part of the boundary between Europe and Asia. This collection therefore represents both Gilan’s heritage and modernity, authenticity and savoir-faire, with creations that capture the many facets of the river.
