As a “jeweller” member of the Fédération Française de la Haute Couture et de la Mode, the Maison Chopard regularly presents its Haute Joaillerie creations at the Paris Couture Week. This year and for the first time, Chopard jewellery models adorned Giambattista Valli’s models during his Haute Couture runway show.
The Haute Joaillerie models selected by Giambattista Valli include several exceptional creations. Having fallen under the spell of a set of incredibly rare 17 non-oil Colombian emeralds, ardent gem-lover Caroline Scheufele designed a stunning necklace alternating these emeralds with equally pure D-flawless diamonds – the largest of which is an over 20-carat pear-shaped gem. This collection piece testifies to Chopard’s and its artistic director’s devotion to rare stones.
In the same majestic vein, one notes 18-carat white gold rings topped by splendid white and yellow diamonds, with light bouncing endless of their facets, like an enchanted kaleidoscope. Finally, emerald and diamond necklaces pay tribute to traditional gemsetting techniques, combining a dainty diamond lacework with exceptional emeralds.
