How To Wear The New Jewellery

Diamonds will continue to be the fashion leader in stones, writes ย Home correspondent. Only platinum is used for to-day's set- ting, so there is nothing to detract from the white fire of the stone Itself. Each diamond is treated. individually.

Individuality is accorded to all gems of worth, as every precious stone, Af valuable and cast in a perfect design. is a costly affair. There is a desire to use important pieces such as head ornaments in. many ways.

Diamonds sparkie in the hair at night, but they also appear at many daytime functions. A slender halo bandeau can be trans- formed into two other ornaments: the upstanding centre cut atones, with surround of square. baguette diamonds, make a magnificent, double-clip Brooch; while the nar- Tower ends are transformed into lovely bracelets.

Many of the newest bracelets are slender and graceful, measuring half to one inch wide, though the more massive types are of in width. Brooches in diamonds and all stones of value continue to be on the large, important size, but of such light and exquisite design as never to look heavy.

Another clever

combination

I

have seen is one of the fashion- able clip ear-rings in diamonds, made up in a band caught into a tiny buckle. By day this formed the new short clip curling round the lobe of the ear; by night the buckle and chain "were released

and a chain of diamonds fell, to create the long,"graceful drop de- Blgu.

Clever,, treatment of this kind is practical and modern. The girl of to-day preters one or two pieces of jewel-work or quality to a mis- cellaneous hoard of old trinkets. Flexible pieces that can be altered easily to suit all kinds of toilettes and occasions full modern re- quirements.

London Jewellers are busy re- setting and utilising stores of value, turning long-discarded and hidden treasures into beautiful and useful creations.

Bracelets and ear-rings are ap- pearing in many of the important wedding-gift lists of to-day. Diamond bracelets can hold evin- ing watches successfully. Dainty linked chains of diamond are ou casionally interspersed with other

stones, but the most popular way. is to use all diamonds, for these stones in their great and newer. variety admit of no monotony.

A linked bracelet may have one or two cut stones in each link with surround of small baguetted diamonds, other stones may stand up from a close pavé foundation

small brilliants. It is

mar- vellous how many ways of treating diamonds there are,

The same applies to rings, Whatever stone is chosen. It s preferred alone.

The big single diamond is lovely, with its platinum shoulder setting and possibly brillants or smaller baguette stones to hold it. Big sapphires and emeralds are ar- ranged in a similar way, but 85- sisted sometimes by a background of baguette diamonds on each side of the shoulder that secures the stone. The single stone appears much more, valuable in a simple betting of this type, rather than In the old half-hoop style.

I saw some exceptional examples of single-stone rings in emeralds. very special specimen in this colour seemed to reflect wonder- ful tones.

I am also told that pearls are coming into thelr

again quickly. Either black or white pearls of great price will suffice for the stud ear-ring and single pearl ring.

It is interesting to see pearls be- ing worked once more into orna- ments, such as a diamond brooch and clasp. This old-world alliance is now beautifully presented in the modern way. Nothing could be more exquisite than a slender chain of diamonds holding a lovely. pearl pear-drop to weight it.

The rope of pearls is not so fashionable "to-day as the two or three rows of pearls worn as a necklace, with diamond clasp. The Queen's affection for pearls will assist in their return to fashion's favour. They are most effective tor ear-rings, and can be treated in a great variety of ways.

Two-colour ensembles for cock- talls and dinner are immensely chic at the moment. With a black skirt goes a dashing circus-rider bolero of vividly-coloured wool ma- terial, covered with gold or multi- coloured bead embroideries.

A particularly smart one is long, very narrow, buttoned from neck to hem, with little suffs and a trim collar, its simplicity relieved by an enormous bunch of roses or peon- les.
