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.
Under the light of a New York autumn, Tiffany & Co. unveils a new immersion into its imaginary depths. Sea of Wonder, chapter 2025 of the Blue Book, opens like a diving logbook.
For more than a decade, TASAKI and Mélanie Georgacopoulos have formed a unique duo, united by a common intuition: to liberate the pearl from its traditional setting.
En novembre prochain, Genève accueillera l’un de ces instants rares où le marché de la haute joaillerie croise l’histoire culturelle. Christie’s proposera à la vente The Mellon Blue un diamant Fancy Vivid Blue de 9,51 carats, d’une pureté dite Internally Flawless.
Avec sa Limited Edition N 7, Repossi signe une pièce qui interroge la tradition de la perle autant qu’elle la transforme. Nommée Sphere Earring, cette création s’inscrit dans une démarche conceptuelle : l’art du vide, du flottement et de l’équilibre.
The new capsule collection, dedicated to the icon Quatre, is part of this lineage, where the material becomes both a subject of reflection and an aesthetic vehicle. This time, black sand is the unexpected guest in a dialogue with yellow gold.
At Chaumet, the wheat ear is more than just a motif; it embodies a continuous thread that links imperial heritage with contemporary creations. Joséphine de Beauharnais and Marie-Louise d'Autriche had already chosen this sign of fertility and prosperity to adorn their jewelry.
At Boucheron, the arrow is not an anecdotal ornament; it is part of the house’s DNA. Introduced as early as the 1860s, it has served as a testing ground for aesthetic experimentation, ranging from Orientalist refinement to the codes of 1920s Modernism.
The Japanese house Tasaki unveils its latest collection whose common thread lies in the subtle combination of the major jewels of jewelry. Each of these stones—ruby, emerald, sapphire, diamond, and pearl—is treated as a unique language.
In the midst of a dreamy garden, Van Cleef & Arpels brings to life two floral jewelry creations, between solar lace and tropical exuberance. With Flowerlace and Fleurs d’Hawaï, Van Cleef & Arpels once again demonstrates its ability to reinterpret motifs that are foundational to its stylistic vocabulary.
Trente créations, mêlant pièces uniques et éditions numérotées. Certaines réinterprètent les signatures de Nikos Koulis, d’autres explorent de nouveaux territoires. On y découvre une parure de diamants taillés en moval.
A unique house due to its direct connection with the source of its diamonds, De Beers inscribes this second chapter under the sign of the emblematic trees of its producing countries. Each piece echoes a landscape, a texture or a light, translated into rough and polished diamonds in service of a contemporary reading of nature.
La maison Graff a dévoilé 1963, une parure de haute joaillerie inspirée par la décennie fondatrice de la marque. Ce nouvel ensemble rend hommage aux Swinging Sixties, époque de liberté créative et de bouleversements culturels, tout en réaffirmant le rôle central du diamant dans l’histoire de la Maison.
Through the windows of 12 Vendôme, a landscape awakens. At Chaumet, jewels become flowers, leaves and wings, as if nature had found refuge in gold and precious stones. The new collection of haute joaillerie, Jewels by Nature, tells this intimate encounter between the living world and the art of the workshop.
Il y a dans la collection Blast de Repossi un souffle, une pulsation. Un élan brut qui surgit d’un fil d’or infini, travaillé comme un trait instinctif, presque calligraphique. On imagine la main qui trace, le geste qui enveloppe le corps sans ruptures.
The Boucheron house continues its exploration of nature with its new high jewelry collection Carte Blanche 2025, titled Impermanence.
By revisiting her emblematic animal collection through this deliberately unrealistic chromatic filter, the creator questions our perception of the animal world. What remains of the fauna once filtered through the jewel? A colorful, moving abstraction, a hybrid.
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.
