Chapter 650: Wei Da who was excluded
"Natural pearls have a delicate texture, soft luster, high transparency (mostly translucent) cultured pearls have a loose texture, not strong luster, and have a "small bag" on the surface, commonly known as "prickly heat bag" or "pinch". The difference between saltwater pearls and freshwater pearls is that seawater pearls have good bead quality and are mostly translucent; Freshwater pearl nacre is often white and grayish, and the luster is not soft. Qi Ping and Angela listened to the expert's explanation the same as Angela Xiaobai, and the pearl that was regarded as a treasure was now also being taken for various tests.
Although Wei Da knew that the pearl was fished out of the sea, Wei Da wanted to know how the pearl was produced; Saltwater pearls are rare, and naturally grown saltwater pearls are even rarer. The most important thing is that this is an abalone pearl, and because it has only been two years since the farm is full, it is really surprising that pearls are produced so quickly.
The flush pearl is a special-shaped pearl, which means that it is not a round pearl in the traditional sense.
The international standard of pearl size is based on diameter, less than five millimeters and five millimeters to retain millimeters is the centimeter pearl, which is basically difficult to have much value; Six to eight millimeter pearls are medium pearls, which are more valuable. Pearls larger than eight millimeters are large pearls, and if the luster is a little better, it is a valuable color. But a diameter of more than 10 millimeters, which is a great value, obviously pearls are often based on size.
As for the unit of weight is the ream, one ream is equal to fifty grams, which is equal to a quarter of a carat; But obviously, the pearl in Wei Da's hand is a relatively large guy.
"Mr. Wei, congratulations. Your luck strikes me incredible. "Flipped through the inspection report in your hand, Palomar? Picasso said with some envy; The world's top jewelry Tiffany brand figures, there are many representative works.
She has the most prominent surname in the history of modern art. Because her father is Pablo, who has a series of classics such as "The Matador", "Guernica", "Dove of Peace" and so on? Ruiz? Picasso.
Wei Da smirked, he was now completely relieved, the quality of this pearl obviously made this top designer known as "the golden inspiration of the jewelry design world" also moved. Actually, want to meet Palomar? Picasso was not an easy matter, because she was not even worth less than Weida.
She has the most prominent surname in the history of modern art, and she also has the most maverick and shrewd "brain" in the fashion industry. She is the most prestigious jewelry designer and businessman. In 1995, her ex-husband started a battle with her over property; Palomar's fortune is said to have exceeded $1.5 billion, and her economic empire includes cosmetics, perfumes, and jewelry, as well as more than $600 million worth of paintings left to her by her father.
I was able to meet Paloma because Weida was worth a lot of money. Although he is very low-key, he is definitely not the kind of obscure small role; Of course, it was also because the pearl in Weida's hand was very rare, which also made Palomar excited. In other words, the designer is the soul of jewelry.
Designers can make a different piece of jewelry after it has been processed and retouched. Radiating brilliance. Instantly transformed into a beautiful piece of jewelry. But for top designers, their talent is certain, and they also need to be strong; Of course, the main thing is to have the right material in order to be able to create a beautiful jewelry.
"This pearl is clearly outstanding, with excellent clarity, luster, contour linearity. This is a natural pearl of the sea, and of course we all know that it is unique. Not just because it is a rare abalone pearl, but also because of its shape. "Paloma likes to express her design ideas with quirky shapes, chain links and braided textures. The color matching is also unique, so she is happy to see the hunt.
Although it is designed a lot of excellent classic jewelry. But such a master must hope to give birth to more fine products under his own hands. This crescent-shaped pearl with a diameter of 6.5 mm, a length of about 15 mm, and a thickness of 2 mm gave her a lot of ideas, and at this moment she felt that she was about to have another fine piece of jewelry under her hands.
"Ms. Palomar, I would like to be the designer with my wife this time, and we hope to be able to get more professional guidance from you." Wei Da felt that he could no longer hide at this time, and this matter must be made clear.
Palomar was immediately outraged, and although she was almost seventy years old, she was still the best in the industry. The most important thing is that she feels slighted, she believes that Wei Da must have done an investigation when they visited the door, as a rich man, she thinks she doesn't have time to delay time because of these little things!
"Ms. Palomar, this pearl means a lot more to us, and we all want to be able to create a more meaningful piece of jewelry under our own hands. Maybe it's not perfect, and we might even destroy the value of this pearl, but for me and Da, it's going to be the most different. Angela also said quickly, of course she could see that Paloma was very unhappy now.
Although she was very angry, Paloma also maintained a good demeanor and upbringing, and she did not immediately blow up these two presumptuous bastards. But now, Paloma felt that she seemed to be at peace, and she felt that the matter seemed to make a lot of sense, both for the Weidas and for herself.
Palomar went through a divorce, even considered the most expensive divorce in history, because her ex-husband asked for half of her family fortune in 1995, and it was a huge fortune of nearly a billion dollars. Although she has now found an emotional belonging, it is clear that that experience will stay with her for the rest of her life.
The artist was also very emotional at times, and Palomar suddenly felt that she should bless the couple, because they were very affectionate, which she envied and would bless.
Wei Da was a little nervous, not that he couldn't find a great designer, but Wei Da felt that Palomar was really the right mentor. For Palomar, who is not short of money at all and has enough wealth, she doesn't care about Weida's guidance fee at all, although this guidance fee is even higher than the price of Palomar's own investment.
"You have to think about it, being a designer requires a lot of artistic talent, and you need a lot of skills. I don't know how your skills are, so let me see your talents. If you don't have talent, or if you have poor eyesight or your hands shake in a tense state, I won't hesitate to refuse. Jewelry processing requires delicate work and is very demanding. Paloma was silent for a moment before suddenly speaking.
Weida and Angela glanced at each other, this is a play, Paloma means to say yes?!
"Thank you, Ms. Palomar, it means so much to me and my wife. I think we probably don't have the talent to be a designer, but we can learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses to meet your requirements, and I think it's just the bare minimum. Wei Da also had a little humor, and he still needed some adjustment in the atmosphere at this time.
"I'm pretty sure you don't have the talent to be a designer. Although I don't have much to accomplish in the design of the service, I have to criticize your attire. Old-fashioned, dull but revealing excessive fancy, this is a complex contradiction, which makes people feel very vulgar and lacking in beauty. Palomar suddenly pointed to Weida's dress.
This also made Wei Da completely dumbfounded, he rarely wears formal clothes, and he doesn't like Yan SΓΉ in suits very much; But I have to say that he is wearing Armani's boutique suit, and it is matched with the classic leather shoes of the family Velis. Weida didn't like it, but Angela sprayed some of Tiffany's classic fragrant floral fragrances, the Ambergris collection; Necklaces and the like were taken off because they weren't Tiffany products; The only thing that was the wedding ring was not taken off, which may be a bit presumptuous, but Angela would not have taken it off anyway.
"Tiffany is always a symbol of love and beauty, romance and dreams; The simple and unmistakable lines speak of calm and transcendent clarity and heart-warming elegance; Harmony, proportion and organization are the essence of every Tiffany product. It seemed embarrassing to see Weida, and Palomar continued, "It's a shame I didn't see any of that, at least on you. β
"Mrs. Wei, you don't meet my requirements, your hands will shake slightly when you are nervous. But your sir is not bad, the only thing I am satisfied with is that his body looks good, except for some of his bad ideas. Seeing Weida honestly raise her hand, Palomar laughed.
Although it seemed to be tossed lightly, neither Weida nor Angela was irritated; Obviously, they themselves are somewhat offensive to Palomar, and with an old man in his seventies, you can't go tricky with them unless it's really too much.
"Ms. Palomar, if I provide me with some creative ideas, and he does it himself, I think this might be enough for you. Of course, we need your professional guidance. It may seem unsightly to you, but it means a lot to me and Tatsu. Angela said seriously, she really wanted to design the pearl herself.
"With my guidance, it won't be unsightly, unless someone makes a mistake in the operation." It was clear that Weida had been ostracized once again, and he was now very glaring in Palomar's eyes, "Dinner at my house may provide you with some inspiration." β
"Appreciate your request, but we were with the kids and they were right in the hotel with my parents. We appreciate your request, but perhaps our children are a little too naughty. Angela was embarrassed that if the children were to visit, the artistic Palomar's home might be a disaster. (To be continued......)
