Spikes are a symbol of protection and of ferocity. This spike-inspired collection explores the delicate facet of a symbol traditionally associated with victory, masculinity & phallic power. The Sharp spike points celebrate a daring, theatrical and full of zest personality. This diamond cut was first created in the mid-1700s at the request of King Louis XV of France, who desired a diamond shape that imitated the perfect lips of his mistress, the Marquise of Pompadour. That royal title gave the diamond shape its most popular name, but this cut is also known as the navette (French for “little boat” or “little ship”) or lemon cut.
