WHAT COMES NEXT

Famous for being the first jeweller to take up residence in the illustrious Place Vendôme, Chaumet boasts an extraordinary 240-year-old history. Among its most famous clients were Napoléon Bonaparte and his wife, Empress Joséphine, who has since inspired an entire Chaumet line dedicated to its muse’s tastes. For the holiday season, why not treat yourself or that special someone to a creation from Torsade de Chaumet, which uses twists of white gold wrapped to depict Place Vendôme’s stone columns and architecture.
