CHANEL is an exceptional jewelry brand. First of all, CHANEL Haute Joaillerie embodies traditional French techniques and know-how. Thus, each piece is the result of a completely manual process, from the original sketch by the Creation Studio to the search for exceptional stones, and until its realization by the artisans of the workshop. It should not be forgotten that 90 years ago, Gabrielle Chanel already envisioned Bijoux de Diamants, her first collection of jewelry. So, Mademoiselle applied the principles of Haute Couture to the creation of her jewelry. Yellow and white diamonds illuminate pieces of great simplicity, designed to sublimate the movements of the body and the elegance of women. Indeed, this is a bold approach, adopted by a visionary designer. This is why the Maison CHANEL is creating the extraordinary 55.55 necklace to mark the centenary of the perfume's fame. No. 5. Because it expresses the codes of fragrance by having them shine through an exceptional gem shaped to its image, a bespoke 55.55 carat diamond. Thus, the harmonious shape, emerald size, symbolic weight of 55.55 carats, the D Flawless quality of this stone, and the white 18K gold pendant adorned with 104 round diamonds and 42 baguette diamonds testify to CHANEL’s perfectionism, creativity, and technical mastery.
Gabrielle Chanel admired light. Throughout her life, these images have accompanied her gaze. Today, they become the leitmotif of Signes & Symboles, CHANEL's new Haute Joaillerie collection.
Gold is not smooth. It is textured, rhythmic, and constructed. The Joaillerie Creation Studio chooses engraving as a foundational gesture, transforming the motif into architecture. Each piece is based on a clear design, where the geometry dialogues with softened volumes.
With CHANCE de CHANEL, the House brings this intuition dear to Gabrielle Chanel to life: luck is neither a whim of fate nor a distant abstraction. It is a way of being, an inner breath.

When Gabrielle Chanel imagined her only and unique collection of high jewelry in 1932, she drew the outlines of it with motifs dear to her universe: the comet, the sun, the ribbon and the feather.

Since then, the feather has traversed the decades, reinterpreted according to the inspirations of the CHANEL Studio de Création Joaillerie.
