Zodiaques
Since their creation in the 1950s, the Zodiaque pieces by Van Cleef & Arpels have accompanied the dreamers of the world.
Fortunate Destiny
Through the ages, many liked to believe the medals they held in the palm of their hands predicted good fortune. Then, the Zodiaque charms were cherished, adored and worn as individual treasures.

Illuminated constellations
Often embodied by little animals, the Zodiaque signs also take the form of constellations for Van Cleef & Arpels . Bright, they light up the skies above Place Vendôme and have accompanied the Maison ever since its creation. With dazzling stars, the zodiaque constellations shine radiantly and portray the beauty of the heavenly vault.
Poetry of cosmos
The Zodiaque constellations follow their bright way into the Van Cleef & Arpels night skies, as an invitation to live in harmony with the rhythm of the stars. They are embodied by the 2018 Midnight Zodiaque Lumineux watches, which light on demand, thanks to an exclusive mechanical movement. A heavenly poetry at nightfall and a promise of eternal light.

Colors of nature
Since the 1950s, Van Cleef & Arpels has paid homage to the constellations and has adorned the signs of the Zodiaque with materials imbued with life. The Maison draws from the infinite color palette of ornamental stones, carefully chosen to evoke the four elements to which the signs of the Zodiaque are linked: water, earth, fire, air.
