Do Upfront Models Wear Brian de Staic?
For those with a keen eye, you’ll notice that Orla herself never goes anywhere in recent years without her own Brian de Staic staple. On her thumb, she wears the infamous Ogham ring with her own name engraved. This piece is was a gift from her daughter, adding to its significance and making it all the more special.
But it has equal significance for the brand.
Brian de Staic was the first master jeweller to create the Ogham collection. It was one of his first collections when he opened the business over 40 years ago and remains one of his most popular collections today as it intertwines beauty, culture, history and identity. Ogham is derived from the Celtic God of elocution - and is an ancient linear script and the first known written language of Ireland.
Each piece of jewellery is personalised with the name of the recipient and some celebrity devotees include Tom Cruise, Saoirse Ronan, Don O’Neill and Maura Derrane.
Our Upfront family are huge fans of the pieces you see here, with most of our team hoping to covet this wonderful range for themselves!
