Chaumet’s story has always been in complete harmony with nature. In fact, since its founder Marie-Étienne Nitot established his workshop in 1780, he started to sign his letters as the “naturalist jeweler”, making nature the indelible aspect of the Maison’s identity. Through it, the high jewelry house has always expressed its poetry in jewelry-making, recently unveiling an exquisite collection entitled “Le Jardin de Chaumet” – taking us on a highly evocative promenade studded with exquisiteness.

Creativity, savoir-faire and exceptional stones set the tone to this elaborate story of 4 chapters. A fusion of landscapes and seasons come alive in 68 pieces of high jewelry while accompanying us from the woods and their lush undergrowth, to a field of wheat hit by the sun, then under a vine to contemplate the texture of its leaves, finishing off this charming journey with a walk among the flowers and their wide variety.

Many are the factors that lend this collection its unparalleled beauty. Besides the transformable pieces that Chaumet has always been known to master, some of the diamonds that adorn these marvels feature an 8/8 cut with 17 facets, which can be considered the ancestor to the brilliant cut. Such remarkable stones were met by the redoubled inventiveness of the craftspeople, who sculpted gold into lace or graphic petals, created the most daring settings and conceived clasps that are as clever as they are invisible.

More than a high jewelry collection, Le Jardin de Chaumet is an invitation to wander through nature, contemplate its utmost beauty and witness the openness of the Maison to all sources of inspirations that have set its rich journey apart. Head to the Photo Gallery and watch this fascinating world as it reveals its exquisiteness through equally sophisticated jewelry.
