Van Cleef & Arpels unveils its radiant new Perlée novelties, which draw inspiration from its iconic golden bead motif
Van Cleef & Arpels has unveiled the latest creations under its Perlée jewellery collection, which artfully combines the warm radiance of yellow, rose, and white gold with the icy shimmer of diamonds. The collection, encompassing bracelets, rings, and earrings, exemplifies the maison’s century-old expertise and meticulous craftsmanship.
Drawing inspiration from its storied past, Van Cleef & Arpels pays homage to its iconic golden bead motif, a staple since the 1920s. The new Perlée creations echo historical designs such as the Tartelette pieces and the asymmetric Caroline ring, blending creativity and heritage.
Central to the new collection is the Perlée diamonds 5-row bracelet, available in various gold tones. This piece features an asymmetric composition of golden beads and diamonds, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shapes. The meticulous arrangement of gemstones, enhanced by honeycomb-shaped apertures, allows light to travel through the stones, amplifying their brilliance. Alongside diamonds, the bracelet also showcases coloured gemstones like rubies, sapphires, and emeralds, reflecting Van Cleef & Arpels’ dedication to material richness and gemological precision.
The Perlée diamonds duo ring stands out with its joyful geometry. Comprising two bands — one mirror-polished and the other set with round diamonds — the ring highlights the maison’s signature savoir-faire. The careful openwork structure of the ring ensures the diamonds shimmer beautifully, held in place by delicate grains that echo the round form of the golden beads.
The Perlée diamonds earrings, with their generous proportions and dynamic design, complete the collection. The earrings feature domes paved entirely with diamonds, bordered by golden beads that enhance their radiance. The meticulous selection and setting of the diamonds, adhering to the strictest criteria, ensure a halo of light that animates with every movement.
The collection is a testament to Van Cleef & Arpels’ commitment to excellence. Diamonds are selected based on the strictest criteria, and coloured stones are evaluated for their colour, cut, and overall beauty. Each piece is meticulously crafted, with mirror polishing ensuring the golden beads catch the light brilliantly. With this launch, Van Cleef & Arpels continues to celebrate its timeless legacy of elegance and innovation in jewellery design.
