From emeralds to rubies and everything in between, these one-of-a-kind creations make a compelling case for any jewellery vault.

Serti Sur Vide Collection, Repossi
Repossi reinvents its signature Serti sur Vide collection with a 13-piece launch that plays with architectural forms, cuts and colour. Inspired by the gemologist’s gesture of holding a stone between the fingertips, the new release features floating pear, cushion and marquise cuts alongside statement double rings and earcuffs. Marking the 40th anniversary of its Place Vendôme boutique, the Maison also introduces rich indicolite tourmalines, green tourmalines and aquamarines, channeling the oxidised reflections of the iconic column into jewellery.

Carte Blanche High Jewellery Collection ‘Human Being’, Boucheron
Boucheron’s Carte Blanche collection, titled Human Being, takes a classic cluster-necklace design and transforms it across five distinct sets. In the Flower set, for example, Claire Choisne brings a delicate floral wallpaper motif to life, capturing every stage of a floral bloom across 1,532 carats of softly frosted and polished rose quartz.
Requiring nearly 3,300 hours of artisanal labour, the set utilised micro-miniature painting, where each stone was hand-painted under magnification to evoke three-dimensional depth and subtle colour gradients. Crowned with a 3.26-carat cushion-cut diamond and anchored on a hidden ceramic-coated pin framework, the piece tells a botanical romance in high-jewellery vocabulary. Learn More
Divas’ Dream High Jewellery Collection, Bvlgari
The iconic fan silhouette at Bvlgari ventures into fresh territory for this year’s Divas’ Dream High Jewellery creations. The signature curve, originally born from the ancient mosaic floors of Rome’s Baths of Caracalla, embodies a natural fluidity inspired by the ginkgo leaf. Stepping past traditional single-gem arrangements, the new high jewellery necklace and matching earrings lean into a interplay of gemstones. Malachite, turquoise and amethyst sit alongside rubellites and pavé diamonds, carried by Bvlgari’s signature cabochon cuts and intricate gold chains. It’s decadent, yet minimal in a way that maintains a wearability for the modern collector. Learn More
Gucci High Jewellery Collection
Gucci’s latest High Jewellery collection brings the House’s heritage to life across four chapters, ranging from nautical ropes in Gucci Nodo and geometric logos in Everlasting G to reimagined House icons like the Horsebit. But it’s the Gucci Flora line that steals the spotlight – particularly a set inspired by poppies. The set reimagines the famous 1966 design originally created for Grace Kelly, making bold, multi-layered petals out of lightweight titanium. Set with rubies and rubellites, the openwork technique allows light to pass through each stone, giving these pieces an aura of their own. Learn More
