When Ashley Marshall left for his trip to Guatemala, Mexico and South America, little did he realize that his life was about to undergo a tumultuous change. When he followed this trip with a 3 year stint at Sir John Cass Jewellery University, he had equipped himself with the competence to bring about a path breaking difference in the designs and colors of current British jewellery.
This initiative gave birth to Azuni and its very first collection was immediately lapped up by major stores like Emanuel Ungaro, Browns, Liberty and Whistles as the novel concept of beaded costume jewellery gained huge acceptance amongst the London and French hoi polloi. Since then, other equally famous brands like Edina Ronay, Ronit Zilkha and Jigsaw have signed up Ashley to come out with his unique jewellery designs for them and he has carved for himself the status as one of the very top notch jewellery designers.
The cornerstone of the Azuni success revolved round the sourcing of exquisite precious metals and semi precious stones, which Ashley could procure from all parts of the world and by lending them the intricacy of hand made designs, he quickly propelled Azuni to great heights. By using other hand techniques like beading, polishing, the finished product acquired a very rich and sophisticated look thanks to the wonderful blend of textures and vibrant colors.
It is more than a dozen years now and Azuni continues to weave its magic by consistently producing designer jewellery that has been well received by the more demanding clientele.
Azuni is famous for its range of Crystal Lace Bracelets and the wonderful part about these items is the variety of designs and colors that Azuni has been able to impart on a sustained basis since so many years. These bracelets are hand-woven with Swarovski Crystal and consist of glass beads embellished with a catch and chain that are gold plated. These are designed such that they can be adjusted for different wrist sizes. The 24 ct gold plated clasps lend a unique style to these designs and provides it a distinct identity.
Other creations include immaculate handcrafted brass bracelets that are a distinct departure from the ordinary patterns, wherein antique chains made of brass adorned with spiritual forms are studded with precious stones. These produce distinct effects of romance, mystery and eclectic beauty and that is reason why such creations of Azuni continue to be popular with the urban tribe year after year.
