Jewelry designer Udi Behr has created a new jewelry collection to celebrate rock legend Freddie Mercury, who died in 1991 at the age of 45 of AIDS-related bronchial pneumonia.
Love - Made In Heaven: The Freddie Mercury Collection was introduced Monday by online jewelry Love & Pride.
The ingredients used to create The Freddie Mercury Collection are 18k gold, silver, leather, diamonds and semi-precious stones. Each piece in this fabulous new high-end jewelry collection of rings, bracelets and necklaces for both men and women, is emblazoned with the word 'Love', the 'O' executed in a stunning, patented double trillion (triangle) with semi-precious stones or diamonds. Moreover alle pieces have the exclusive 'Made in Heaven' signature, a tribute to one of Freddie's most memorable solo tracks which later became the title of Queen's album with Freddie, released in 1995.
Udi Behr says the universal message of love in Freddie's life and work inspired him to create this beautiful ironic jewelry. 'As I searched for inspiration to capture Freddie's spirit in this collection, it became clear to me that love was the core of his life and work. In fact, this collection is both a personal tribute to Freddie and a way for all touched by his talents to continue the love affair'.
A portion of the net proceeds from Love - Made in Heaven will be donated to the Mercury Phoenix Trust, which is dedicated to raising money and awareness about AIDS in Mercury's memory and which was established by the three remaining Queen members after Freddie's death on November 24, 1991.
