23 Sep 2026

Harle Paris has presented its jewellery prizes at Birmingham’s Symphony Hall following the sixth edition of the prestigious Evgeny Svetlanov International Conducting Competition, held in Birmingham from 3–6 September 2026.

The Birmingham-based fine jewellery Maison, founded by jewellery designer and gemmologist Anson Law, presented silver cufflinks featuring mother-of-pearl and lapis lazuli in a lattice design, alongside a silver brooch in an intertwined branch motif, set with a South Sea pearl, as part of the competition’s awards.

The designs draw on themes of growth and artistic development. Alongside the lattice and branched motifs featured a south sea pearl, reflects journeys shaped and refined through experience and collaboration, resonating with the artistic development of the winning conductors.

Designed to mark an important moment in the careers of the winning conductors, the pieces offer a lasting reminder of their achievements and the journey that follows.

Michal Oren, who received First Prize, described receiving the Harle Paris pearl brooch as an unexpected and significant moment,

“I was very happy to receive it, and in fact I did not know it was part of the awards. It is a beautiful reminder to the wonderful experience I had in Birmingham.”

Oren also reflected on the connection between music and jewellery, two disciplines brought together through the collaboration,

“Both worlds express beauty and delicacy that make them special art forms.”

The First Prize marks a significant milestone in Oren’s professional journey, as she continues her artistic career in her new role as Calleva Assistant Conductor with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.

For Harle Paris, the presentation of the jewellery prizes brings together two forms of artistry through their shared appreciation of craftsmanship, collaboration and creative expression. The pieces offer a personal, wearable reminder of achievement that can accompany the recipients beyond the awards ceremony and into the next stage of their professional journeys, reflecting the Maison’s belief in the enduring relationship between craftsmanship and artistic expression.
