About the designer:

From an early age on, designer HRH Margarita Princess de Bourbon de Parme has had a great admiration for jewellery. Her background made her experience up close the most beautiful jewels from amongst others the Dutch Royal House, where each jewel tells a special story. It is therefore totally understandable that during her early childhood this fascination for jewellery, craft and design arose and that she started to delve into designing and producing jewels at a later stage in life.

How it started
After designing an ochre silk and wool rug in a collaboration with ICE International, back in 2012 (with a graphic interpretation of the silhouette of the branches of the beech tree), she got totally inspired for more and called a jeweller friend. The idea is to design a jewel: the leaf-shaped rose gold ring, pavé set with white diamonds. This one design grows into an entire collection: the LEAVES© collection.

About the designer
HRH princess Margarita de Bourbon de Parme likes to use new materials and graphic forms, inspired by nature. Her family tree has both a southern European (Italy and Spain) and a northern European branch (France and Germany). In her designs she unites these cultural differences by means of the intense ‘southern’ emotions on the one hand, and the ‘northern’ penchant for sobriety, clear lines and the simplicity of these lines on the other.

De Parme Design – Inspired by Nature
De Parme Design was founded in 2014 by HRH princess Margarita de Bourbon de Parme. With De Parme Design, the Princess designs jewellery, interior objects and fusion pieces, inspired by nature. De Parme Design combines different materials and always integrates a graphic interpretation of nature in its designs.
