Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel’s enduring motto goes, “If you were born without wings, do nothing to prevent them from growing.” This whimsy and ambition infuse the house’s most recent haute joaillerie collection, “Reach for the Stars.”
Three of the late designer’s most beloved motifs emerge from a swirl of padparadscha sapphires, tanzanite beads, and pear-shaped diamonds—a comet, a set of wings, and her astrological sign, the lion. The interstellar blend pulls from Chanel’s singular 1932 collection, “Bijoux de Diamants,” the only high jewelry collection touched by the designer during her lifetime.
For inspiration, Chanel turned to the stars—a prism for two quintessential facets of the house: freedom and eternal modernity.
