In its new high jewellery opus, Jewels by Nature, Chaumet maps the living world in three movements—Everlasting, Ephemeral and Reviving—that honour flora, winged fauna and the maison’s savoir-faire. It is both a tribute and a call to preserve nature’s gifts, rendered with naturalism and lightness of build.
EVERLASTING
Chaumet’s opening chapter pays homage to perennial flora. The Wild Rose suite reimagines a 1922 tiara for today: a triple-wear necklace crowned with an 8.23-carat Fancy Vivid Yellow diamond; a petal-cradled 5.02-carat solitaire ring; and earrings set with 2.60- and 2.68-carat yellow diamonds—each piece a radiant hymn to nature’s constancy.
Oat & Field Star animates pastoral grace in gold and diamonds, the result of nearly 1,300 hours of meticulous craftsmanship. Its transformable jewels reflect Chaumet’s fluid elegance. Clover & Fern blends heritage motifs with Colombian emeralds and diamonds, creating wearable talismans of luck.
EPHEMERAL
This chapter immortalises fleeting blossoms in vivid colour. Carnation blooms in an impossible Chaumet blue—its transformable mesh framing a detachable 36.44-carat Ceylon sapphire drop.
In Sword-lily, rubies appear to float along diamond “vines,” poised mid-motion through fil couteau, a Chaumet signature that lends each jewel an airy lightness. Sweetshrub unfolds in watercolour shades of pearl, spinel and sapphire: a 44.23-carat spinel centrepiece detaches as a brooch, while butterflies flit across other transformable creations.
REVIVING
Flora and winged visitors return with the seasons in a celebration of renewal. Magnolia Grandiflora glimmers in all-diamond splendour—a tiara, necklace and jewels set with flawless pear-shaped stones.
Dahlia whirls with five detachable rosette motifs, offering dramatic versatility across necklaces, tiaras and rings. Water Lily drapes in aquatic elegance, its openwork petals dotted with spinel buds and imperial topaz; at its heart, a monumental 23.11-carat gem dazzles like sunlight breaking over ripples.
Threading through all three chapters is Chaumet’s bee—an imperial emblem turned pollinator in precious stones—alighting as a series of honeycomb brooches that underscore the maison’s living dialogue with nature.
