To begin with, we must go back to 1944, the year in which Princess Elisabeth received a double clip brooch in aquamarine and diamonds from Boucheron on her 18th birthday. It should be noted that she would wear this sentimental jewel throughout her reign.
In this regard, Claire Choisne, Director of Creation at the House, decided in 2020 to reinterpret this unique piece to create a high-jewellery collection. Also, eighteen creations are inspired by the famous Art Deco motif. In particular, Claire Choisne captures the essence of the royal jewel while combining it with the present. In order to: «Instead of disrupting the original geometry of the design, we have compacted the Art Deco motif; elsewhere, we have infused it with another dimension by playing with the colors of the stones.».
Thus, the collection is initially structured around’Hypnotic Blue. A splendid gold-lacquered cuff adorned with diamonds and aquamarines cut into cabochons and baguette-cut. Then comes Frosty White which is in the great tradition of the multi-faceted high jewelry. Indeed, the necklace made of white gold, diamonds and rock crystal features six different figures. Then there is Green Garden which takes up the Art Deco motif. But horizontally, it gives birth to a ring made of platinum, emeralds and diamonds. We should mention Color Block, A trio of high-end pop jewelry! These are three ear jewelry adorned with diamonds and sapphires in acid-colored tones. They can also be worn as charming hair accessories.

Let's continue with Rolling Red, This set consists of a necklace, a pair of earrings and a ring. It showcases all the style of Boucheron. Lemon Slice is a compact and monochrome version of the famous brooch. Sophisticated, it transforms into a barrette, brooch or choker thanks to leather ribbons of different colors. As for the Moon White it is a union of strength and balance, of pearl and diamonds. Finally, Mega Pink, which is characterized by a powerful rose of tourmalines in cabochon and baguette shapes.
To put it simply, this collection is a successful exercise in style. Like a Queen transcends this double clip by giving it a new dimension in varied and colorful outfits.
