St. Regis Hotels & Resorts has unveiled an exclusive branded jewelry collection designed by Alexis Bittar. The bespoke collection includes earrings, a necklace, and brooch, and each luxurious piece draws inspiration from legendary style maven and St. Regis founding patroness Caroline Astor, the mother of St. Regis founder John Jacob Astor IV.
The St. Regis Collection by Alexis Bittar pays homage to Caroline Astor’s infamous jewelry collection, which she frequently displayed at her illustrious social gatherings, and puts a contemporary twist on the revered pieces. Exquisitely blending Bittar’s love of form, texture, color, and light with Caroline Astor’s fondness for pearls and diamonds, the collection offers spectacular, one-of-a-kind pieces for St. Regis guests and jewelry aficionados alike. Hand carved and hand painted, collection features Bittar’s signature Lucite in each piece; the long, dramatic necklace presents luxuriant crystal and Lucite accents alongside pearls in rich cream, platinum, and champagne hues, while the lush, floral broach shimmers with its cluster of crystals, surrounded by Lucite petals. The delicate drop earrings sparkle with Lucite and a touch of crystal.
The St. Regis Collection will be available at all Alexis Bittar stores nationwide and online at www.alexisbittar.com. The St. Regis Collection necklace will retail for $490, the set of earrings for $310, and the broach for $385.
