President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama hosted their first official State Dinner at the White House with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his wife Gursharan Kaur. Michelle Obama made what is sure to be a memorable and glamorous entrance, dazzling in one-of-a-kind Bochic earrings. The Bochic rose cut, amber, and tourmaline pear shaped earrings complimented her gown beautifully and gracefully enhanced her bare neckline.
"We are incredibly honored that Mrs. Obama chose to wear Bochic earrings last night. When we designed the earrings we wanted to integrate both Eastern and Western design elements. We were drawn to the orange hue of the natural amber and the rose color of the rubellite tourmaline, which are traditional Indian colors. We also added rose cut diamonds to create a vintage feel. These one-of-a-kind earrings are handcrafted and completely unique. The First Lady was an absolute vision," says designer David Joseph.
From opulent bangles to oversized statement earrings, Bochic pieces are sure to captivate a crowd. The designs have attracted a vast celebrity clientele and are beloved by the fashion elite.
Designers David Joseph and Miriam Salat strive to capture the essence of the Bochic woman - impeccable taste and passion for luxury. It's about the embodiment of independent spirit, confidence, style, adventure and zest for life.
Bochic is inspired by the designers' passion for travel and their experiences in the world's most exotic locales. With influences from India, Turkey, Morocco and Spain, you might say travel is their muse. The Bochic designs show enduring respect for the variety and richness of the global cultural heritage.
Miriam's background in hand-crafted fashion jewelry is the perfect complement to David's expertise in classical European jewelry. The union creates a look that is fresh, sexy, and stylish, yet enduring and distinctive.
The Bochic collection can be found worldwide and is sold at some of the most prestigious luxury retailers.
