Prada
The House of Savoy coat of arms and knotted rope on Prada’s seal herald that the iconic Italian luxury fashion house was named Official Supplier to the Italian Royal Household in 1919. Started in 1913 by Mario Prada, the brand’s original shop in Milan’s Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II still has the mahogany shelves that displayed its early wares such as travel items and handbags. Today, these fine leather goods are joined by the clothing, wallets and other various accessories that keep the brand on the cutting edge of fashion.
When Mario Prada’s granddaughter, Miuccia Prada (b. 1949), inherited the business from her mother in the late 1970s, Prada was recognized for its quality craftsmanship, yet it was still a modest-sized company. Miuccia, an enthusiast of unconventional Italian filmmakers who’d earned a Ph.D. in political science, introduced the concept of using pocone — a military-grade water-resistant nylon that feels like silk.
Nylon revolutionized the fashion house’s business, with the first Prada nylon backpack released to universal acclaim in 1984. Soon the durable, water-resistant material was incorporated into Prada’s ready-to-wear collections for both men and women. No one had previously considered nylon a part of luxury fashion, and it wasn’t long before the family-owned company best known for its luggage was leading modern style that emphasized function as much as form.
Characterized by clean lines and a refined elegance that signaled the new direction of the legacy brand, Miuccia Prada debuted her first ready-to-wear collection for women in Fall/Winter 1988. More inventive fashion would follow in the ensuing years, such as the 1993 launch of the more affordable, more playful Miu Miu line, which was aimed at a younger audience, and the introduction of Prada Sport in 1997 — a collection now widely seen as prescient for its embrace of athleisure.
Prada has regularly gone against the grain to elevate styles that have long been out of fashion. In 1996, there were dresses and skirts in clashing patterns and muted earth tones that seemed flat and outdated, all worn with chunky high wedge sandals. Fanny packs followed three years later, and elaborate lace in 2008. Each season continues to bring new eye-catching innovations for the historic brand, including enhanced attention to sustainability with Prada Re-Nylon, a new line of bags created from recycled ocean plastic.

- Bulgari Ceylon Ruby "Serpenti" BraceletBy BulgariLocated in New York, NYThis opulent five-coil gold, Ceylon ruby and diamond "Serpenti" bracelet dates from the Dolce Vita period of 1950s Rome, when Bulgari jewels reached new creative and technical heights. Drawing on beloved ancient models from art and archaeology, the bracelet is designed as a coiled snake whose rounded body is composed of hand-formed curved tubogas links surmounted by beaded mesh, its engraved head with flickering tongue set with a fine oval-cut Ceylon ruby, diamond accents, and diamond eyes, while a concealed compartment beneath the ruby opens to reveal a watch with circular dial. With its astonishing flexibility, and soft, sinuous feel, the bracelet winds beautifully up the arm, an emblem of Bulgari’s modern style and unequaled craftsmanship bringing to life a classic jewel worn by the empresses and goddesses of the Minoan, Egyptian and Roman worlds.

- Emilio Jewelry Certified 27.00 Carat No Heat Pigeons Blood Burma Ruby BraceletBy Emilio!Located in New York, NYFrom the Museum Vault at Emilio Jewelry New York, Main stone: 17 pieces of approximately 19.00+ carats Pigeon Blood Red~Pink Red OVAL / CUSHION Setting: 17 fancy-cut white diamonds totaling approximately 8.30 carats, 18K The Burmese mining area is rich in chromium, so the ruby from Burma has a bright color and strong saturation, which is one of the important reasons for its preciousness and rareness. In addition, Burmese rubies shine with natural fluorescence, and the gems seem to exude lifelike light from the inside out. The 15.99 carat "Jubilee" ruby is the most expensive colored gemstone in the history of American auctions. Verdura cleverly set this ruby with gold and diamonds, and finally sold for 14.2 million U.S. dollars, and the transaction price per carat unit was as high as 885,000 U.S. dollars. In the 13th century, the explorer Marco Polo brought Europeans to the attention of rubies from Burma. Eight hundred years later, the Burmese ruby has become a rare treasure in the world, and every time it appears on the auction market, it attracts a lot of attention. If it is a "pigeon blood red" ruby bracelet...Category
