In tune with the seasons, Van Cleef & Arpels contemplates the wonders of nature and celebrates them in highly poetic creations. Evoking the beauty of a snow-covered landscape, the Snowflake collection has for several decades reinterpreted the “flocon” motif introduced by the Maison in the 1940s.
Entirely set with diamonds, these pieces embody Van Cleef & Arpels’ taste for White High Jewelry.
This winter, the Snowflake collection is enriched by two clips and two transformable necklaces. Timelessly elegant, they combine the luminosity of platinum with the sparkle of diamonds in keeping with a Maison’s tradition.
Snowflake collerette transformable necklace
The elegance of the Snowflake collection comes to life with this
necklace, a homage to the world of couture. Its curved lines of
round diamonds trace out an ethereal Claudine collar adorned with
sparkling snowfl ake motifs. The setting – entirely articulated and crafted
in openwork – suggests delicate lace, gracefully caressing the contours of
the neck. To provide varied styling options, the necklace’s main motif can
be worn alone, as a pendant on a chain.
Snowflake clip and pendant
With a design infl uenced
by the Maison’s 1948 Cristaux de neige clip, this refi ned piece can be worn
as a clip on a jacket lapel, or slipped onto a chain as a pendant.
Snowflake noeud clip
This Snowflake clip traces a bow in platinum and diamonds,
bound by a rounded jewelry motif entirely set with stones. Endowed with
subtle energy, this asymmetric three-dimensional piece will adorn either
an outfi t or the hair like a ribbon of light.
Snowflake transformable necklace
In keeping with Van Cleef & Arpels’ tradition of transformable jewelry,
this sparkling necklace can be worn in up to nine different ways to
suit any mood. Thanks to discreet fastenings, its various elements can
form three bracelets and six types of necklace, from a choker with a single
strand of diamonds to a two- or three-row necklace. On each side of the
piece, twin half moon-shaped jewelry motifs link these delicate streams
of diamonds. The creation’s fully articulated structure enables it to gently
hug the neck or wrist, like freshly fallen snowflakes.
