If there was one takeaway this year, it’s that imagination may just be the rarest stone of all. Chanel gave us winged wonders, Pomellato audaciously experimented with its own heritage, and Van Cleef & Arpels spun high adventure into even higher carats. The moral? In haute joaillerie, as in life: dream bigger, shine brighter. And judging by the best collections, the future of jewellery will be written by the boldest storytellers—with plenty of sparkle to spare.
