Panthère selva necklace, 2022

This necklace features a three dimensional panther on a 73.07-carat cabochon-cut Zambian emerald. The Maison's emblematic animal watches over a tangle of vines, created by threading together 163 emerald beads of various sizes totalling approximately 178 carats. The luxurious materials and irregular shapes contrast with the realistic rendering of the emerald-eyed feline. The design of the necklace takes inspiration from the animal’s coat with its paved motif of diamonds and onyx.
