Trésors Révélés collection

The History of Van Cleef & Arpels lives on in successive generations. The archives bear witness to the value in which the Maison attaches to its heritage. With the High Jewelry collection Trésors Révélés, Van Cleef & Arpels revisits its own illustrious history. To celebrate its centenary in 2006, the Maison used its unique savoir-faire to bring to life exceptional creations designed between the 1920s and the 1960s.

Designed in the 1930s, this necklace unveils one of the Maison’s creative concepts: Metamorphosis. The Belle de Jour necklace is made up with white gold, round, marquise, square, and baguette-cut diamonds, and turquoise cabochons. The band around the neck can be worn alone as a necklace, while the two front ribbons can be worn as bracelets and their ends detached and worn as earrings. The ribbon at the back becomes a belt.

The original drawing from 1938 illustrates the thistle’s poetic form while also revealing all the artistry of the Mystery Set™. The Chardon clip is set with round, baguette, and rose-cut diamonds and Mystery Set rubies in white, yellow, and pink gold.

Designed in around 1935, this necklace is composed of a ribbon that wraps delicately around the neck and ties into a knot on the shoulder. The Drapé de Diamants necklace is made up of white gold, asscher, emerald, marquise, baguette, and square-cut diamonds.

This Minaudière™ precious case designed in the 1925 is comprised of a palette of colorful stones delicately set in a sheet of deep black onyx. The Jardin d’Orient Minaudière™ precious case is set with yellow gold, onyx, amazonite, aventurine, jade, and coral.

In this creation designed in 1930s, Van Cleef & Arpels creates an asymmetrical style by having the adjustable buckle clasp, which allows the length of the necklace to be changed as desired, attach to the shoulder with a clip when worn. The Mers du Sud necklace is made up of white gold, baguette-cut diamonds, jade, jadeite and turquoise beads.
