Haute Jewelry: Les Perles de Chanel

Mademoiselle Chanel had a great love for pearls. Wearing them constantly and to a variety of occasions, even with sportswear or a sweater paired with mens’ trousers – pearls were a way to reveal her most feminine side not matter what she was dressed. “Les Perles de Chanel” collection showcases one of the pivotal themes of the Chanel brand. A select number of items were on display in the Chanel boutique in The Dubai Mall after a tour in the world capitals of Tapei and Hong Kong, among other locations.

A “White Tie” necklace from the 1932 collection is set in 18-carat white gold set with 35 fancy-cut diamonds for a total weight of 5.7 carats, 150 brilliant-cut diamonds for a total weight of 3.7 carats and 1370 Japanese cultured pearls.

The Comete Perlee bracelet is also from the 1932 collection. It is set in 18-carat white gold set with 133 brilliant-cut diamonds for a total weight of 1.7 carat, one South Sea cultured pearl of 10.4 mm and 110 Japanese cultured pearls.

The Camelia Perle brooch is from the Camelia collection. It is set in 18-carat white gold with 345 brilliant-cut diamonds for a total weight of 9.9 carats, two pearl-cut diamonds for a total weight of 1.4 carat and 37 Japanese cultured pearls of 6 to 9.5 mm diameter.
