ROMANTICISM, TAKE A BACK SEAT. THESE MODERN JEWELS MAKE A STATEMENT WITH STRONG, PRECISE LINES AND GEOMETRIC ANGLES

VAN CLEEF & ARPELS

The maison’s new high jewellery collection – Sous les étoiles, Heavenly Dreams – reimagines the cosmos in dramatic fashion as seen here in this Nuée d’émeraudes necklace. It depicts the comet 41P, known for its blue-green glow, in precious gem and diamond baguettes set in graphic lines. Along the edge are 96 rare Afghan emeralds, which total 62.3 carats, and flaunt an elongated shape and a unique hue tinged with a delicate hint of yellow.

CHANEL

Showcased in Chanel’s high jewellery collection Escale à Venise, the Eblouissante parure flaunt distinctive white and pink geometric designs, as seen in these earrings. A unique interpretation of the palace façades and polychromatic marble floors of churches in The Floating City, the staggered motif set with baguette diamonds is also reminiscent of the quilting cherished by Mademoiselle Chanel.

TIFFANY & CO.

From the Sea range of Tiffany & Co.’s 2021 Blue Book Collection is this necklace, whose unique gemstone cut and innovative design are the result of a yearlong collaboration between high jewellery designers and artisans. Interspersed between the surprising pairing of soft, blue-green aquamarines with silken sunny yellow beryls are geometric yellow gold-framed rock crystal panels, each graced with a “floating” oval diamond in the centre. Tiffany & Co. 2021 Blue Book Collection yellow gold and platinum necklace with over 139 carats of cushion-cut aquamarines, cushioncut yellow beryls totalling 121 carats, custom-cut rock crystals weighing over 47 carats, and oval and princesscut diamonds of more than 9 carats

GRAFF

This mesmerising plastron necklace is part of Graff’s Tribal Collection, which draws inspiration from the enchanting folk tale of the maiden who created the stars. Expressed through an impactful, stylised motif, the creation represents how mankind has looked to the stars and celestial bodies for guidance through the ages. Graff Tribal Collection platinum, white and yellow gold necklace with white and yellow diamonds totalling 65 carats

CHAUMET

The Lacis line from the architecture-inspired Perspectives de Chaumet collection is a subtle interplay of light and transparency created by the fils couteau setting. The signature Chaumet technique renders the metal structures invisible, allowing the gemstones to sparkle. This necklace also recalls the stone latticework and mashrabiyas of modern architecture, as well as a maze of narrow streets. Perspectives de Chaumet Lacis white gold necklace with brilliant-cut diamonds and one 21.93-carat pear-shaped rubellite

CARTIER

Geometry is an integral part of Cartier’s stylistic vocabulary, and here it finds a new dimension when applied to the maison’s most beloved emblem, the panther. One of four new creations in the Panthère de Cartier jewellery collection, this openworked high jewellery necklace is an abstract expression of the big cat realised through architectural lines and edges.
