Statement earrings generally took the form of Chandelier earrings. They were big, featuring large stones and busy with moving parts. Both intriguing & complex. Sabre Fine diamond earrings by comparison, show a simplicity of form, a sharp clean directional silhouette, adorned with a great deal of diamonds. Sabre Fine diamond earrings are powerful & present, with a controlled movement. So beckoning, they own the room. The silhouette is strong, streamlined and a perfect balance of precious gold & scintillating diamonds.

Sabre Deco makes freedom and restriction, tension and fluidity balance as if on a knife edge. Think: the House’s fearless silhouette, the Sabre with couture elegance. These statement earrings swirl and dance on the neck, bound by diamonds, dazzling as they go.

The Art Deco movement was about Architecture, Jewellery and Clothing. Expressive and upbeat, it celebrated movement and fluidity. And you could feel the decadence of the era in the details, that flamboyant playfulness. Sabre Deco perfectly demonstrates the reinvention and evolution of the house silhouette. The Sabre becomes a more dynamic dramatic piece, that is as much about materials as it is about design. Expressing movement and colour, Sabre Deco has a presence and energy all of its own.

Sabre Deco delights in silver & black or gold vermeil & black - decadent rich colours that come together in lively shapes and forms, expressing freedom and beauty. Discover neckwear and wristwear that will delight and surprise the onlooker, pieces that can only be described as provocative, daring and refined. Unmistakably Shaun Leane.

Born out of the first ever commission in 1997, from the late formidable Isabella Blow – who requested an anklet, like the ones worn by the Italian ladies of the night. An early patron to some of the greatest names in fashion, Isabella saw the potential in Shaun as a creative force, at an early stage, from the work he created with Alexander McQueen, another creative talent she championed and nurtured, right up until her untimely demise.

The anklet was so daring, before it’s time. It had an edgy elegance, dangerous and sharp to look at but so perfectly formed to the alignment of her graceful ankle. Painstakingly considered and proportioned to accommodate her gait, to move with her without harming or causing irritation. Perfectly fitting, like a second skin. For such a sophisticated couture dressed lady, this was a bold piece, yet so refined and elegant. Perfectly tailored.

The choker evolved from the anklet, which took the original double pointed straight Quill and reworked the silhouette to undulate & curve, lending itself to the contours of the body. The focus was not only on dressing the skin, but moving with the body. Each Quill is ‘tailored’ – in length and undulation, to sit next to and work with the adjacent piece.

The original tailoring ensured the elegant fit and elongation of the ankle, the careful balancing of the width & profile of the leg, accommodating the achilleas heel which itself behaves like a knife edge. For the choker, additional consideration was needed to address the length of the neck, to retain that gracefulness, and vulnerability and accommodate the incline to the chin.
