Boodles’ new Lucky collection is inspired by horses.
The new range is designed to showcase the “majestic nature” of racehorses and the “exhilarating moments” of racing.
Boodles sponsors the Cheltenham Gold Cup and the first winner was named Red Splash. For this new collection, the designers were inspired by the splash that forms as the racehorses run around the racecourse.
The collection includes stylized horses in platinum set with diamonds. These are available as bangles and wrap-around earrings, or as pendants.
The team also drew inspiration from sketches of Picasso and Darley which express the equine shape in a few lines, to develop concepts that capture “a singular, defining moment, speaking both to the beauty and power of racehorses in full flight”.
The earrings depict movement with diamond splashes beneath a central stone, whilst the pendants hang from bespoke chains that have ‘water droplets’ running through them. Even the static bracelet depicts movement with four hooves arranged together in turf prints.
Michael Wainwright, managing director of Boodles, said: “Drawing inspiration from the electrifying thrill and eager anticipation of the racetrack, this collection offers an enthralling glimpse into the momentary flashes of wonder and passion from a day at the races.”
