Aurora, the new collection from kailis, is inspired by sunset, that most magical time of day when the sun kisses the horizon, its swirling curtain of light a fiery fusion of crimson, pink, orange and purple. It is mother nature’s spectacular light show, captured and committed to memory, forever a reminder of a special moment shared with someone you love.
And it is in Broome, in the far northern reaches of Western Australia that you’ll experience the most famous Australian sunsets of all. Here the ocean rises to meet the sun’s rays as she dips in the gradually darkening western sky. In a fleeting, shimmering moment she disappears over the edge of the world, beneath the pristine waters that are home to the exquisite Australian South Sea Pearl and where the Kailis story began almost five decades ago.
Creating a collection that embodies the euphoria of witnessing the perfect sunset takes time, skill and patience. For two years, Kailis worked tirelessly with some of the world’s finest jewellery makers and stone suppliers to craft the nine-piece Aurora collection. Its lustrous untreated Australian South Sea pearls, recognised the world over for their beauty and scarcity, are set within a delicate framework of 18ct yellow gold and feature hundreds of hand cut and polished Cabochon Rubies, Orange Sapphires, Pink Tourmalines and brilliant White Diamonds. The result is redolent of a luminous moon rising in a sky streaked with saturated colour.
