Achievements, experiences, memories, thoughts and feelings shape individuality. Treasured childhood memories of life in Japan, living through Europe and working at luxury brands Hermes, Ralph Lauren, Salvatore Ferragamo and BVLGARI inspire designer Michael Almonte to be creative in the midst of a pandemic. Seeing talented people like Guy Sebastian wearing ALMONTE jewellery at the 2020 Aria Awards, on the hit TV show ‘The Voice’ and while filming the video clip for his single ‘Love On Display’ has been humbling and a tremendous honour. Being featured internationally in ELLE Serbia, L’OFFICIEL Malaysia and the launch issue of VOGUE Man in Hong Kong fuels Michael to continue expanding his collections.

Layering jewellery is a trend that has been spotted for decades on celebrities and in iconic fashion magazines but the look can be tricky to master in everyday life. Looking overdone is easy particularly when stacking multiple rings on the same finger/s. The subtle sophistication of ALMONTE rings Buoyant and Fuse enhances statement pieces and one of a kind designs. Establishing a proud tradition for impeccable workmanship, ALMONTE bespoke jewellery is meticulously custom made. Each piece is wearable art expertly handcrafted in style capital Tokyo and dynamic Manila by artisans who have spent years perfecting their skills.

Classic yet contemporary, ALMONTE fine jewellery reinterprets the layering trend with exceptional quality pieces that make accessorising simple. Contrast different textures and shapes with designs that feature open spaces for a unique look. Having the perfect balance between skin and metal creates authentic style and combinations of jewellery in odd numbers (especially threes) always works well. A wristful of cuff bracelets, a trio of layered pendants and stacked rings by ALMONTE compliments a suit and tie or a little black dress as effortlessly as a crisp white shirt and jeans. Explore layering jewellery to express individuality, refocus and refresh season after season.
