Guerlain at Holt Renfrew
STAR-STRUCK
A cult favourite since they were first released in 1987, Guerlain’s
Météorites Perles contain a constellation of shades that work in concert to
illuminate skin, correct flaws and create a flattering glow. Infused with a
subtle violet fragrance, the perfectly round pearls are shaped by hand —
a craft mastered by only four people worldwide.

FIRST NATIONS FINERY
When it comes to making a statement, Ernest Swanson’s exquisite jewellery never fails to impress. Case in point: the artist’s intricate “Raven
With Human” pendant, carved in slate-black argillite and inlaid with a
delicate sprinkling of abalone, or mother-of-pearl. Each piece is imbued
with Swanson’s Haida heritage, for wearable sculpture that’s museumworthy.
