Chanel’s icons come from the many inspirations of Mademoiselle Chanel’s jewelry creations. Today, the French luxury house reinterprets these emblems through “Les Icones de Chanel” collection with a spirit of creativity that gives them a personality of their own.

The delicatessen of the feather has always inspired Coco Chanel’s jewelry pieces. Gracious and feminine, this 10-piece collection features it in the form of white-gold earrings and necklace set with diamonds.

«I wanted to cover women with constellations. Stars! Stars of all sizes that sparkle,” said Chanel when she first created her one and only jewelry collection in 1932. The stars have always captivated her and led her imagination, as she considered them symbols of luck. Four pieces of jewelry that depict the star are included in this iconic collection.

For secret reasons, the camellia was Gabrielle Chanel’s emblem. This flower blooms in all the house’s jewelry creations, making it a timeless icon at the heart of Chanel’s history. In this collection, this symbol comes in the shape of a diamond-set white-gold sautoir, pink-gold earrings set with diamonds, two diamond-set pink-gold and white-gold rings.

Gathering all of Gabrielle Chanel’s cherished symbols, “Les Icones de Chanel” is a collection that stands the test of time with its softness and simplicity. It is a collection that captures the icons that were close to the heart of its founder.

 

The collection will be available at Chanel Watches and Fine Jewelry boutiques starting January 2016. Scroll through the Photo Gallery to view these stunning jewelry pieces.
