Fouquet
Inspired by the detail of the candle light appliques in Nicolas Fouquet's private apartment at Vaux le Vicomte, the Chateau he so extravagantly decorated in 1653 whilst being the Minister of Finance for Louis XIV. From the journey to France.
Aquamarine
Aquamarine with its hues of blue and green is known as the sailor's gem ensuring safe travels across the seas. It is the birthstone for March. The colour in aquamarine is due to the presence of iron in the beryl crystal lattice with the most important deposits being found throughout Brazil as well as in Africa where the colours of blue can almost be a pungent blue.
