Style Edit: Boghossian's Lirya collection brings aquamarines, rubellites, green tourmalines, moonstones and other gems together in vivid high jewellery pieces
In the world of haute joaillerie, few maisons dare to
explore the beauty of contrast with the confidence and grace that Boghossian does. With the Lirya collection, the Geneva-based house unveils what it describes as a 'secret garden of enchantment' – a realm where opposing forces come together to create sublime harmony. In this case, the 'forces' are pairs of vibrant gemstones, masterfully delivered as pieces that are timeless and quietly transformative.

At the heart of Lirya is the idea of unity through contrast. The collection brings together aquamarines, rubellites, green tourmalines, moonstones and other gems in compositions that feel effortlessly fluid and elevated. Rather than one gem overpowering another, these stones form balanced narratives that celebrate individuality while highlighting a deeper interconnectedness. The result is a luminous choreography of colour and form.

Lirya speaks not only to visual beauty but to emotional resonance. The pieces are crafted with intention: shapes unfold gracefully, colours blend in unexpected ways. They reflect a balance between strength and softness, stillness and movement. In this way, Lirya becomes more than jewellery: it becomes a statement of continuity and transformation.

From tanzanites paired with moonstones, to morganites set alongside verdant tourmalines, each piece offers its own distinct presence within Lirya's enchanted garden. Since its debut at The European Fine Art Foundation (TEFAF) in New York, the collection has captivated visitors to Boghossian's Geneva and London boutiques, elevating the brand's already stellar reputation for visionary design.

What makes Lirya distinctive is its ability to maintain the integrity of each gemstone's brilliance while achieving a remarkable overall harmony. The name itself whispers of lyrical grace, echoing the maison's belief in the convergence of strength and delicacy, innovation and heritage.
