The Facet Virage

The Piece

"A composition of shifting colour and sculpted light, where every facet reveals a different expression with movement."

The Facet Virage is a contemporary interpretation of the tennis necklace, created with multicoloured square and round precision crystals whose appearance evolves with light, movement, and viewing angle. From cool greens and blues to flashes of violet, rose, and iridescent tones, the crystals continually reveal new dimensions of colour.

The geometric square crystals create a strong visual rhythm, while smaller faceted round crystals soften the transitions and introduce additional brilliance between each statement element. Together, they form a balanced sequence of colour, reflection, and proportion that gives the necklace its distinctive character.

Designed to sit close to the neckline, The Facet Virage brings an expressive edge to both contemporary and occasion dressing. Its beauty is never completely static—the piece changes subtly as its wearer moves, allowing light itself to become part of the design.

Distinctive without excess, it is created for the woman who appreciates jewellery with presence, individuality, and an element of discovery.

Style Inspiration

The Facet Virage draws its inspiration from the moment light changes direction across a faceted surface—a visual turn in which one colour disappears and another unexpectedly emerges.

Its name reflects this idea of transition. Facet speaks to the precision-cut surfaces that shape and redirect light, while Virage evokes a turn or change in direction. Together, they capture the defining character of the necklace: colour that appears to shift as perspective changes.

Square crystals introduce architectural clarity and contemporary structure, while the round faceted accents create movement and continuity throughout the composition. Their changing tones lend the piece an almost fluid quality despite its geometric form.

Styled against monochrome eveningwear, a refined saree, a cocktail silhouette, or a minimal contemporary ensemble, The Facet Virage becomes the point at which colour enters the composition—bold enough to command attention, yet refined enough to remain distinctly elegant.

The Craft

The Facet Virage is meticulously assembled from precision-cut square and round crystals, arranged to create an alternating rhythm of scale, geometry, and brilliance.

The larger square crystals form the visual anchors of the necklace. Their broad faceted surfaces respond dramatically to changing illumination, revealing different shades depending upon the direction and intensity of light. Smaller round precision crystals are positioned between them to create continuity while adding finer points of reflection.

Careful attention is given to the orientation, spacing, proportion, and colour relationship of each element so that the necklace maintains visual balance across the neckline. The contrasting crystal shapes prevent the composition from becoming repetitive while allowing its multicoloured character to remain harmonious.

The connecting elements and fittings are integrated with restraint, allowing the crystals—and their constantly changing interaction with light—to remain the focus of the design.

From the placement of every facet to the overall silhouette, The Facet Virage reflects the SYBARIS approach to thoughtful craftsmanship: precision, proportion, individuality, and beauty revealed through detail.

The Care & Continuity

To preserve the brilliance and structural integrity of The Facet Virage, we recommend the following:

Store separately in a soft-lined jewellery box or fabric pouch to minimise scratching and contact with other pieces.
Avoid direct contact with perfumes, cosmetics, lotions, hairsprays, and household chemicals.
Wear the necklace only after completing your beauty and grooming routine.
Remove before bathing, swimming, exercising, or sleeping.
Protect from prolonged exposure to moisture, humidity, excessive heat, and direct sunlight.
After each wear, gently wipe the crystals and fittings with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth.
Avoid abrasive cloths, chemical polishing agents, jewellery cleaners, and ultrasonic cleaning machines.
Handle the precision crystals and connecting elements carefully; avoid pulling, twisting, dropping, or placing heavy objects over the necklace.
Hold the necklace by its fittings or connecting sections wherever practical rather than applying pressure directly to the faceted crystals.

With mindful care, The Facet Virage will continue to preserve its brilliance, changing spectrum of colour, and distinctive character—remaining an expressive part of your collection for years to come.
