Boucheron’s Haute Joaillerie: Innovation & Heritage

Boucheron's creative director, Claire Choisne, draws inspiration from founder Frédéric Boucheron's legacy for a new haute joaillerie collection, blending geometric designs with historical innovations.

One pendant, “The Address”, reiterates an initial layout based on the strategy of the Place Vendôme, though Choisne’s is much more geometric and establishes white gold and baguette rubies against black lacquer. With “The Flicker”, he at the very least could offer them an item of jewelry, shaped like an inquiry mark and including a spring mechanism, that they could place on unaided.

Inspiration from Frédéric Boucheron

Choisne presents a phenomenal series of jobs during each couture period: intricate collection pieces that can be split up into several components. Yet, on this event, honouring Boucheron’s innovative history, she derived her motivation straight from Frédéric’s body of work. “I see the entire collection as a picture of our owner,” she claimed.

“Frédéric Boucheron was the initial jeweller to open on Place Vendôme in 1893, the first to show gems on velour panels,” claimed Claire Choisne, Boucheron’s imaginative director, at the launch of your home’s most current haute joaillerie collection in February. “And, before that, he developed the first necklace to not have a clasp.”
