VAN CLEEF & ARPELS CELEBRATES NATURE WITH FLOWERLACE AND FLEURS D’HAWAÏ
For over a century, Van Cleef & Arpels has turned to nature as one of its most prominent muses. This season, the Maison unveiled two new chapters of that story: Flowerlace and Fleurs d’Hawaï, collections that transform blossoms into works of art.

The Flowerlace pieces capture the delicate nature of a blooming crown. Crafted in yellow gold and diamonds using the lost-wax technique, the collection reimagines the couture-inspired Silhouette clips of the 1930s. Rings, earrings, pendants and a transformable clip-hanger echo the movement of petals in full bloom, their stamens enriched with golden beads and diamonds of varying sizes. The result is jewellery that feels light, airy, and full of motion—an ode to the Maison’s love of transformable designs and timeless grace.

Contrasting the softness of Flowerlace, Fleurs d’Hawaï is a burst of colour. Inspired by tropical gardens, it pairs pear-cut gemstones of citrine, amethyst, rhodolite, aquamarine and peridot with sparkling diamond centres and golden foliage. Openwork structures let light flow through each stone, amplifying their brilliance. Among the highlights are three secret watches, including a dazzling creation where twelve gem-set petals conceal a mother-of-pearl dial. Like the historic Passe-Partout jewels of 1938, it can transform into a bracelet, clip or pendant.
Together, the collections embody Van Cleef & Arpels’ devotion to nature’s fleeting beauty, capturing it in pieces that feel at once modern and eternal.
