MONSIEUR FRED INNER LIGHT
First, the chapter opens with Creative Instinct: trust your instincts and dare the unexpected. The pieces here evoke the milieu in which Fred Samuel grew up: the world of stone and pearl trading.
A jewel always tells more than it shows. Behind a stone, a shape or a signature, an era, a culture, a skill, and sometimes the gesture of a creator whose mark transcends time are revealed.
The section Jewellery d’Esprit Joaillerie explores the creation of jewelry in all its forms: Haute Joaillerie, vintage and signature jewelry, contemporary creations, precious stones and colored stones. It is equally interested in the houses and creators as well as the techniques, inspirations and stories that give meaning to the pieces.
From Place Vendôme with the workshops, From archives to today’s creations, Esprit Joaillerie takes a look at jewelry through a lens infused with gemology, art history, and field experience. Watching a jewel is also about learning to read what the stone, the drawing and the hand are telling us.

Thus, to celebrate the anniversary of this historic collection, the CHANEL Jewelry Creation Studio presents the 1932 Collection. In fact, Patrice Leguéreau (Director of the CHANEL Jewelry Creation Studio) draws on the modernity of Gabrielle’s collection by retaining three symbols: the comet, the moon, and the sun.
This fabulous collection begins in 2018. More specifically, with a meeting with a rough diamond, the Lesotho Legend. Presented by the renowned diamond merchant Taché, this 910-carat stone combines perfect D color and a highly sought-after Type IIa chemical composition. The Type IIa diamond is chemically pure.
Comme on peut s'y attendre cette collection réserve d'autres surprises comme ces bagues habillées de pierres brutes. Afin d'attirer l'attention sur leur beauté à l'état brut, Pierre Hardy, a juste surligné leur ombre. C'est à dire qu'à l'image d'un géologue, la lumière susciste une révélation.
Thus, we discover rare stones selected by demanding experts. Then, these same exceptional stones are sublimated in the hands of daring jewelers to be presented on fabulous jewelry.

For Esprit Joaillerie, the jewel holds a central place in the eye. From haute joaillerie to contemporary creations, from historical pieces to the most current collections, each jewel carries a story of material, creation, and transmission.
However, platinum, silver, diamonds, colored stones: behind each piece lies a choice. The choice of a gem, chosen for its beauty, rarity, or character. The choice of a design, a gesture, and a technique that give it its definitive form: crimping, sizing, and composition.
From the great houses of Place Vendôme to creators who are redefining the codes of contemporary jewelry, this section explores the signatures, styles, and stones that have shaped the history of jewelry. A selection where gemology meets creation, and where each piece of jewelry becomes the starting point of a narrative.
