SOUS LE SIGNE DU LION
Lion is one of Gabrielle Chanel's sources of inspiration
4-October-2018
As Gabrielle Chanel’s astrological sign and the emblem of her favourite city, Venice, the Lion is part of her symbolic language. It’s one of her sources of inspiration and she would use it in her creations, to embellish the buttons of her suits or the clasps of her handbags.
Since 2013 the Lion, reinterpreted by the Jewelry Studio of Creation, has given rise to 3 majestic High Jewelry collections.
In 2018, the SOUS LE SIGNE DU LION Jewelry collection opens a new chapter and presents 8 pieces inspired by the lion of Venice. The lapis blue and astral white medallions refer to the lion in St Mark's Square and the sculptural lion, in yellow gold and rock crystal, evokes a Venetian baroque style.
