:: Cerrone opens new flagship jewellery store

By: Leena Thompson

Nicola Cerrone opened his new flagship jewellery store in Martin Place, Sydney recently. He did this with Italian pizazz and style for those who attended. Martin Place was aglow with shades of purple projected on the store. The usual red carpet had a slight difference the carpet colour was purple. Nicola stood at the door greeting each guest individually, while his wife Carmela and daughters Desiree and Dominique greeted and spoke to guests inside. The extremely warm welcome made you feel like you were part of their family.

Nicola himself displayed shades of lavender and purple under his suit. When asked about his choice of colour, he responded “purple is regal, it’s a reminder of royalty”. Nicola during his speech mentioned the words “life is precious”. I truly believe Nicola lives by this and is someone who treasures his experiences, which shows in his amazing work. These words displayed on the outside of the gift bags. Inside was an adorable sterling silver heart pendant attached to a chain.

The ‘A ‘ list guests included a stunning Lara Bingle wearing Louis Vuitton, Tara Moss, Deni Hines, Kerri-Anne Kennerley, Lady Sonia McMahon, Alex Perry, Ricky and Rianna Ponting and Kelly Smythe. All guests looked extremely glamorous, befitting of the occasion. The models wore Alex Perry gowns and displayed Cerrone jewellery.
