Clockwise from left: Lanvin rose brooch $1071 Mytheresa, Lanvin cupid brooch $655 Kirna Zabete, Hakuna brooch $170 Swarovski, Jean Schlumberger maltese cross clip $9300 Tiffany & Co., Iradj Moini pin $2125 Marissa Collections, Bounkit pin $960 Marissa Collections.

In addition to announcing he will enter the menswear market through a collaboration with Aloha Rag, Thakoon Panichgul was named creative director of Tasaki today, a Japanese fine jeweler best known for cultivating, manufacturing and selling pearls.
