    How to Read the Signs and Symbols in Chanel’s Latest High Jewelry Collection (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When a high jewelry collection is called “Signes & Symboles,” you should expect to encounter a talisman or two. And when it’s from Chanel, those codes are clear: the lion (Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel was born on August 19) and the sun, stars and camellias. But the surprise inherent in an independent spirit is encoded in the house DNA. The first Chanel High Jewelry collection, in 1932, was famously all white diamonds, but the 2026 collection is marked by a bold use of colorful hard stones: turquoise,

    Unraveling the History of Cartier's Jewelry Zoo (opens the original)

    There seems to be no way to prove this actually happened, but like all good legends, it should be true.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Shall we play diamond geography? The pursuit will take us to Southern Africa, Namibia, Botswana. And Paris? The recently opened DeBeers London flagship on Rue de la Paix pays subtle homage to the important sources of DeBeers diamonds.
