With its newest High Jewelry line, Fleurs d’Hawaï Collection, Van Cleef & Arpels brings a vibrant ode to the colors and vitality of nature, expanding the Maison’s eternal garden with captivating new creations. Inspired by the lush, sun-drenched landscapes of Hawaii, this exquisite collection captures the ephemeral beauty of blooming flowers through a masterful blend of fine stones, gold craftsmanship, and poetic design.
The Fleurs d’Hawaï collection is a celebration of color in its most radiant form. Five dazzling gemstones—citrine, amethyst, rhodolite, aquamarine, and peridot—take center stage in a series of rings, earrings, pendants, and secret watches. Each stone is carefully chosen for its purity, luminosity, and richness of hue, echoing the Maison’s uncompromising standards of excellence. The vibrant orange-yellow of citrine, the deep violet of amethyst, the bright pink of rhodolite, the cool blue of aquamarine, and the fresh green of peridot each evoke the mood of a tropical paradise in full bloom.
The jewelry pieces feature generously proportioned pear-cut stones arranged like delicate petals, lifted gracefully as if caught in a breeze. The effect is one of movement and natural lightness—hallmarks of Van Cleef & Arpels’ renowned savoir-faire. Every petal surrounds a radiant diamond pistil, often composed of seven stones that sparkle harmoniously from the center of the design. Carefully hand-polished gold prongs and sculpted golden leaves add a touch of asymmetry and volume, enriching the composition with subtle elegance.
True to the Maison’s tradition of storytelling through timepieces, the Fleurs d’Hawaï collection also features three breathtaking secret watches. These enchanting creations marry fine jewelry with functionality, hiding a delicate white mother-of-pearl dial behind a pivoting flower motif. The dial is encircled by a corolla of twelve matched pear-cut stones and topped with a luminous pear-cut diamond at 12 o’clock. Each watch can be worn not only on the wrist, but also as a clip, pendant, or bracelet—transforming from timekeeper to statement jewel in a moment.
This seamless fusion of artistry and innovation is made possible through meticulous craftsmanship. The openwork gold settings, shaped using the lost-wax casting technique, allow natural light to dance through the stones, enhancing their brilliance. The Maison’s expert jewelers and gemologists work in tandem, ensuring each piece embodies harmony, precision, and life.
With Fleurs d’Hawaï, Van Cleef & Arpels continues to weave its eternal dialogue with nature, celebrating beauty that feels alive—blooming not just with color, but with emotion and craftsmanship. Whether worn as a bold statement or a delicate secret, each creation invites its wearer into a dreamlike garden, where time is marked not by hours, but by petals and light.
