Can't get away to travel the world? Bring landmark destinations to your jewelry box instead! French jeweler,
Philippe Tournaire creates miniature versions of global architecture set as rings and bracelets, allowing you to carry a Roman villa, the city of London, or perhaps a Chinese pagoda with you wherever you go.
I find these creations fascinating--architecture, fashion and a shout-out to classical metallurgy all wrapped up into one chic package. I'm immediately reminded of Renaissance craftsmanship--Ghiberti's "Gates of Paradise," anyone?

Would you wear these rings? Which ones?
