Jay Strongwater Celo Beetle Objet – Jewel Beetle Trinket Box
Admire the iridescent wonder of the Jay Strongwater Celo Beetle Objet, a breathtaking masterpiece from the luxury Bug Collection. This exquisite piece captures the vibrant, metallic beauty of one of nature's most dazzling creatures—the Jewel Beetle. Merging high-fashion opulence with organic inspiration, this collectible functions as both a miniature museum-quality sculpture and a functional trinket box, designed to protect your most precious keepsakes.
Artisanal Enameling and 14K Gold Finish Each Celo Beetle represents the pinnacle of handcrafted luxury. The piece begins as a heavy pewter casting, which is then plated in a thick layer of 14K gold. Skilled artisans hand-paint the shell with a captivating blend of vivid enamels in shades of sapphire blue, deep amethyst, and ombre sunset, creating a shimmering gradient that perfectly mimics the natural iridescence of a beetle's wing.
Why This Item Is So Special
Investment-Grade Craftsmanship: This is not a mass-produced ornament; it is an heirloom-quality object. Every single European crystal is hand-set by expert jewelers, and the multi-layered enamel is fired to create a deep, glass-like luster that will never fade.
Intricate "Ombre Sunset" Palette: The color transitions on this piece are exceptionally rare. The blend of purple and blue gradients against the gold-plated legs provides a level of visual depth and "color-shift" that is a hallmark of the most expensive Jay Strongwater designs.
A Hidden Treasure: While it appears as a solid decorative sculpture, the beetle features a discreet magnetic hinge. It opens to reveal a beautifully finished interior, making it the perfect "secret" safe for an engagement ring, heirloom earrings, or special charms.
The Ultimate Gift for Collectors: As a standout in the Jay Strongwater Bug Collection, the Celo Beetle is highly sought after by collectors who value the marriage of entomology and fine jewelry. It is an instant conversation piece for any vanity, desk, or curated shelf.
Signature Presentation: Arriving in a Signature Jay Strongwater box, this item is in pristine condition and ready for immediate high-end gifting. It carries the weight and prestige of a brand found in the world's most exclusive boutiques.
