De Beers continues its dialogue between diamonds and nature with this latest chapter’ Essence of Nature.
On the occasion of the Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, De Beers presented the follow-up to his Haute Joaillerie collection Essence of Nature. Bringing together forty-two pieces, including twenty-five new creations, this collection continues the exploration of the dialogue between jewelry and the plant world.
A unique house thanks to its direct connection to the source of its diamonds, De Beers This chapter is inscribed under the sign of the emblematic trees of its producing countries. Each piece echoes a landscape, a texture or a light, translated into raw and polished diamonds in service of a contemporary reading of nature.
The set Camelthorn Resilience Inspired by the Namibian acacia, a sculptural tree of arid areas, the hand-textured gold reproduces the appearance of its bark, while the contrast between white and brown rough diamonds and polished stones reveals the richness of its nuances. The central necklace, which can be transformed into seven variations, illustrates the ingenuity of this interpretation. With Baobab Magnitude, De Beers It pays tribute to the “giant” of Botswana, a true pillar of its environment. The generous volumes combine smooth jasper, polished diamonds and Fancy rough. Two technical innovations distinguish this piece: the jasper’s size enhanced with diamonds and the setting combining cut stones and rough diamonds, an expression of a constantly evolving savoir-faire. Finally, Jacaranda Bloom Transfers the brilliance of the purple blooms from South Africa. The bouquets of diamonds, animated by subtle movements, capture the light in rhythm with the movements. The Grand Feu enamel work reproduces the subtle nuances of the petals. Two remarkable gems enrich this ensemble: a pear-shaped white diamond D Flawless weighing 20 carats and a Fancy Intense Pink diamond, both from the collection. Natural Works of Art.
With this new chapter, De Beers It continues a reflection in which the jewelry art dialogues with the symbolic power of the trees, linking the origins of its diamonds to the London workshops where these creations are created.
