Mother’s Day Flowers Bloom In Paris

The American and the Swiss were on the early side to celebrate Mother’s day, a day dedicated to life’s giver and the excuse to gift her a beautiful bouquet. For the French, it’s today… and some of us would rather opt for a flowery piece of jewelry combining the eternal stone of the legendary Sunday flower arrangement. Nonetheless flowers are everywhere and it has been a reccuring design theme in jewelry over the years.

Meanwhile Chanel and Dior continued to set their tone and style around flower pieces. The Chanel Camelia Facette covered in pink sapphires and diamonds is mounted on a combination of white and pink gold contrasting with the Pétales de Camelia set in white gold opals and diamonds. When the petals of the first one are weld together like a river of small diamonds shaping the edge of the petals toward the heart of the flower the other seems to have floating opal petals separated by diamonds to find again a small round opal for the pistil.
