Jewelry designer Carole Shashona redefines the purpose of statement jewelry by combining aesthetic beauty with spirituality. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
From the visual side, the luxe \u201cBlack Diamond Collection\u201d perfectly encapsulates the elegance of the Art Deco period with the funkiness of America Pop Form and the mysticism of the Far East. <\/p>\n
However, the pieces also have symbolic meaning, as they are rooted in the art of Feng Shui and designed to bring harmony, protection, love, health, and overall positive energy to the women who wear them. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
The Carole Shashona \u201cBlack Diamond Collection\u201d launched 2 (two) years ago. It includes bracelets, earrings, and necklaces with precious gemstones, crystals and black diamonds, set in sterling silver or gold. The collection is sold exclusively at select Barneys New York locations. Retail price ranges from $3,000 to $25,000. <\/span><\/div>\n

Carole trained with a Grand Master of Feng Shui in Hong Kong for 16 years, and became a Grand Master herself upon his passing. The \u201cBlack Diamond Collection\u201d was inspired by Carole\u2019s spiritual journey through the sacred images of nature depicted in the philosophy of Shan Shui art. <\/p>\n
As an art form, Shan Shui evokes a sanctuary of peace, patience, and harmony. Based on the teachings of the I Ching, Shan Shui captures the emotion and atmosphere of the mountains and waters, and Carole wanted to design a line of jewelry that also depicts the beauty she found in her personal journeys in the Far East. The black diamonds represent the reflecting stones she saw in the mountain streams as she walked with her Master and learned valuable lessons. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
Carole\u2019s interest in Eastern cultures and belief in the energy-influencing powers and colors also led her to a friendship with Andy Warhol, as they both shared similar philosophies on this topic. Crossing paths with Andy has encouraged and helped her to introduce designs for
\u201cwellness\u201d with the splendor and power of healing stones. <\/p>\n
Carole names her pieces based upon an understanding of natural essences combined with a practical knowledge of the rhythms of nature. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
She chooses each name based on the energy they provide. Carole believes the beauty of jewelry not only radiates outward, but sends beauty, balance, and serenity back inward to the wearer. For example, \u201cThe Earth Essence Lotus Bracelet\u201d is named after a flower that balances inner struggle in order to emerge with singular beauty. Earth is symbolic of security, and essential to growth and grounding support. Carole suggests wearing the bracelet on the left wrist, which influences your personal desires and positive energy. <\/p>\n
All designs feature a signature coin with black diamonds, whether attached to the piece or as a separate charm. This special coin is a personal amulet, and fashioned to assist with meditation at home or \u201con the go”.<\/span><\/div>\n

\u201cMy jewelry was inspired and designed to evoke and maintain those same meditative qualities in whomever wears it, to follow them throughout their day, and to remind them of their dreams and desires,\u201d <\/i>says Carole. <\/p>\n
\u201cLike all of my designs, every piece in my Black Diamond Collection works like a life compass, keeping the wearer on course toward personal happiness.\u201d <\/i><\/p>\n
