Bijoux adds a jewel to the CROWN
An air of opulence swept through New Kingston last Thursday, as long-standing arbiters of luxury, Bijoux Jewellers, welcomed the renowned Mikimoto brand of pearls to their already impressive collection of gems, during their annual Christmas party. An eclectic blend of bankers, realtors, lawyers, socialites and business magnates turned out for the launch event, enjoying cocktails and hors d’oeuvres prepared by chef extraordinaire Suzanne Couch, while surveying the glimmering display. Tuesday Social captured the magic of the moment.
