timeless beauty

i was in shanghai this previous weekend. somehow i feel like there are more creative exhibitions and events going on in shanghai than in hong kong. or maybe there are a lot in hong kong but i just don't bother to go visit because i'm lazy lol. i went to this van cleef & arpels exhibit: timeless beauty. not a big fan of jewels but van cleef & arpels? definitely worth seeing! and the exhibition turned out to be really amazing.


first i have to say that the interior design by Patrick Jouin and Sanjit Manku, from the Jouin Manku Design Agency was very impressive. They created a dreamlike 2-floor space so sensual and elegant that people who didn't know much about v.c.a. would quickly get the sense of it.

370 pcs of jewels and accessories were exhibited. v.c.a has indeed created a lot of timeless arts & crafts pcs. at the exhibit we could see how amazing their designs and craftsmanship have been, since 1906. i took some pictures but plz forgive me, i forgot to bring a proper camera and i had to take the pictures with my iphone :/ my bf told me if i wanna be serious about blogging, i should carry around with me a 'proper' camera, which is true!

The exhibit will run until July 15 at Shanghai Museum of Contemporary Art. So if you happen to be in Shanghai, I would suggest you to go and enjoy the exhibit. It's definitely worth going! Last but not least, the following video would give you a preview of the exhibit. Enjoy!
