Welcome to a new year full of creative possibilities! At the end of last year, we eagerly awaited the announcement from the Pantone® Color Institute, where experts consult and choose the colour of the year. It directly influences development and purchasing decisions in many industries, including fashion, interior design, and, of course, jewellery.
Hope, innovation, and new beginnings are all reflected in this year's colour of the year. Meet Very Peri!
The colour of 2022 is Very Peri, a colour that "is bold and encourages personal ingenuity and creativity," according to the Pantone Color Institute. This new shade of purple is made up of the consistency of blue and the energy of red. The result is a shade that expresses innovation and a new beginning.
After a year of unprecedented change around the world, Pantone wanted to provide a colour that reflects optimism and hope for the future. “This new shade is meant to – and even the very act of creating it – represent what many hope for in 2022, a new beginning for a world that knows the old systems and customs can no longer meet the challenges of today, let alone the days to come.” says Pantone.
GEMS IN VERY PERI
In this cool and soft tone, we find several different natural gemstones that can be set into custom jewelry. Gemstones with soft or vibrant blues, lilacs, lavenders, and purples add a sense of hope and freshness that many seek.
In the goldsmith studio SALABA, we offer you several options of natural stones matching Very Peri, such as captivating tanzanite, royal sapphire, modern moonstone, and blue moissanite.

HOW TO DO IT?
Make an appointment with us in one of our goldsmith studios. You can visit us in Prague's Karlín or Ústí nad Orlicí, where together we will create the kind of jewellery you desire in a special 3D programme.
We can also meet online, where you can see through a shared screen how we model the jewellery and create all the details according to you.
During the initial meeting, we will combine ideas, advise you on the colour and size of the natural gemstones, and together we will create a 3D model of the ewelry. After approval, we will start production. We print the jewellery on a 3D printer, cast it from precious metal, process the jewellery, set natural gems by hand, polish it, and it's done! The normal production time for custom jewellery is 4-5 weeks.
