In a story that pays tribute to the beauty of the Insofu Emerald, Chopard unveils a new exceptional parure co-designed by the Maison’s Co-President and Artistic Director Caroline Scheufele and Julia Roberts, global Ambassador of the Maison. Discovered a few years ago in the Zambian’s Kagem mine, the 6,225-carat Insofu Emerald represented a pivotal moment in the history of jewelry. Mesmerized by its changing shades of green and the unparalleled purity of its texture, Chopard defied all conventions and acquired this still uncut and unpolished gem. Through the creativity and expertise of Caroline Scheufele, it was made the center of a design project that is far from being ordinary and studied by the most expert emerald cutters from India, to reveals its unique character through a ring, a necklace and a pair of earrings.
Caroline Scheufele and Julia Roberts joined forces in exchanging ideas born from their creative minds, ambitious visions and deep appreciation for jewelry – bringing to life this ‘Chopard x Julia Roberts’ high jewelry capsule collection. Finding inspiration in the rich cultural heritage of Indian jewelry, this exquisite set brings the crystalline green of the emeralds together with matt sky-blue turquoise and juicy cherry-red rubellites to form colorful masterpieces that will give their wearer Julia Robert’s unique smile.
