For the Pantone Color of the Year 2025 collaboration, Capsule Eleven draws inspiration from the earthy warmth of PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse, blending its emotional essence with jewelry featuring energy-healing white quartz crystals.
Capsule Eleven designed by Natalie Benmayor is the revolutionary avant-garde jewellery brand inspired by the ancients, designed for the future. The brand creates genderless energy jewellery with a soul that captures the concept of ‘spiritual high fashion’ and ‘Egyptian Futurism’.
About the Collaboration
For the Pantone Color of the Year 2025 collaboration, Capsule Eleven has been inspired by the comforting warmth and earthy refinement of PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse and fused together the emotional significance behind PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse and its accompanying palettes with jewellery pieces that contain the energy healing of white quartz crystals.
White quartz amplifies intentions, while also diffusing an aura of tranquillity and calm into one’s energy field and space. As a cleansing stone, it helps to release any negative emotions, creating a harmonious environment, grounded in greater clarity and balance.
A capsule of jewellery which revolves around an eye shaped removable clip with white quartz centre dyed in PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse, are fully customisable and can be worn many different ways for personal styling including on a necklace, bracelet, lapel or shoelace. These pieces come on a cord dyed in PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse.
The Limited-edition versions also come with an additional slice of brown agate that has a natural dreamy, yummy ‘whipped’ quality due to its bands of earthy brown and neutral colors – a trait that resembles the airiness and lightweight feeling of Mocha Mousse. It has properties of grounding and stability and is an ideal companion for spiritual practice, meditation and emotional healing. Associated with qualities of nurturing, protection and emotional balance, it helps dissipate feelings of fear, anxiety and stress, replacing them with a sense of reassurance and inner strength. The agate can be clipped off the piece and held in the hand or on the root chakra for meditation practice to ground you to the earth, promoting a sense of safety and serenity. Every piece of this natural stone is enchantingly unique.

Stepping onto the scene amidst the global upheaval in 2020, Capsule Eleven created a brand that gave meaning beyond design, intended to evoke feelings of personal empowerment and good energy, bridging the gap between the ages infusing ancient symbols and healing crystals with contemporary significance. The collection set the underworld of high-end jewellery ablaze and has created hype amongst press and celebrities having been worn by Grimes to the Met Gala, Tyla, Muse, Rita Ora, Jungle, Flo, Christine Quinn, Jorja Smith, Jesse Reyez and Raye.
Benmayor uses her family history and experience of different cultures and aesthetics to create designs that offer the potential for personalisation. Her family history carries with it an evocative story fleeing to London from exile in Egypt, smuggling across seas nothing but their jewels, and so her love for jewellery that’s precious and meaningful has been embedded since her youth. The family pieces were placed in a London vault that was once used for the James Bond film Goldfinger to represent Fort Knox, before their rediscovery 14 years ago. This box of treasure represented a family time capsule – a vessel containing objects that capture the present moment which could be rediscovered in the future- which also inspired the brands name. In 2024, Benmayor delivered a TEDX talk at Europe’s largest TEDX event entitled ‘What Would You Carry In Your Time Capsule To Space?’ exploring the longevity and cultural significance of fashion and amulets, discussing how these artifacts could serve to preserve and convey our identity to future generations in space. Eleven is a high vibrational number that symbolizes energy, inspiration and vision, themes at the core of the brands values.
Benmayor’s personal style and journey with healing including crystal and reiki work also inspired her need to infuse more of this into high fashion, contemporary pieces. The aim was to reach a wider audience than traditional boho, which is more commonly associated with crystals and envisage what spirituality may look like in the future in terms of visual genres.
Sustainability is firmly at the heart of the brand with all of the metals and packaging being recycled.
