Between physical presentations and digital shows, the Spring and Summer 2021 Haute Couture Jewelry collections revealed some astonishing treasures. Here are eight sets that we loved.
Van Cleef & Arpels
Starting with Van Cleef & Arpels, the luxurious label presented an impressive set of 150 celestial adornments, between a shower of blue sapphires, alluring comets and diamond constellations which hold the names of Helios, Halley, Saturn or Astral Treasure.
Piaget
The “Wings of Light collection” definitely caught our eyes. Exotic waltzes of incendiary spinels, lagoon-blue tourmalines, inlaid feathers signed Nelly Saunier, but above all striking fancy vivid yellow solar diamonds on a ring with allure plumage or mounted in pairs on a secret watch of rare luxury. That’s what you can really call Haute Couture Jewelry, a dream of every woman.
De Beers
De Beers has made a comeback this season after one year of absence. Led by a new CEO, Céline Assimon, the house delivers a couture fantasy in 39 parts and 5 chapters that put into perspective treasures of nature, formed over billions of years. Alternation of rough or polished diamonds, green and pink...modern creations that carry the commitment of the group for the protection of nature’s resources.
Boucheron
Claire Choisne, the artistic director of Boucheron, chooses to explore abstract thematics. Graphic lines trimmed in black and punctuated with green lights that she chooses to spice up with a touch of modernity. Through her passion, the Roaring Twenties spirit becomes an affirmed genderless statement.
Chanel
The French house featured a series of 70 stylish pieces, sometimes paying homage to figurative Venice, between the memories and its architectural streets. The 20-carat diamonds and finely-chiseled transformable necklaces caught our eyes, as there is special attention to the host of pretty charming details distilled by Patrice Leguéreau, director of the Chanel jewelry design studio.
Chopard
We loved the graphic frames mounted on white gold and calibrated for everyday use, between Mini Froufrou pendants, precious hearts, hypnotic waves and delicate double rings.
Buccellati
The Buccellati collection featured couture cuffs in a duo of yellow and white gold, cocktail rings ranging between electric colors and the pearly shine of a 24.36 carat king-size pearl ... Without forgetting the technical charm of the Polvere di Luna set. A delicate lace of 200 brilliant-cut and 80 rose-cut diamonds made entirely flexible by the Buccellati workshops.
Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen
We spotted the reinterpretation of an archive model signed by the founder Ole, and neo solitaires signed by Charlotte Lynggaard, and we loved the luxurious combination.
