A fusion of radiant perfection

“The rarest things in the world, next to a spirit of discernment, are diamonds and pearls.”  — Jean de la Bruyere

It was a harmonious symphony of dazzling pearls and gems perfectly fused with Japan’s old-age tradition of metallurgy and goldsmith as internationally acclaimed Hoseki, a premier designer jewelry salon led by visionary artist Faico and lovely wife Zabeth Co, together with award-winning designers Shamaine Ng and Knoi Esmane, recently had a sneak preview of its most exceptional collection to date — the Mokume Gane. Held at the ultra modern residence of dynamic couple Shamaine and Bertrand Ng, the gracious hosts warmly welcomed well-heeled guests as they viewed and tried on breathtaking Hoseki pieces which sparkled with brilliance. Guests likewise enjoyed the luxurious furniture of the new home of the Ng’s which were furnished by FURNitalia’s Florence Ko. Truly a class on its own, Hoseki’s master touch of design elegance seamlessly perfected the many possibilities of Japan’s richest and well-guarded art.

Congratulations!
