Whimsical and benevolent, the fairies first entered the universe of Van Cleef & Arpels at the beginning of the 1940s. Their magical presence and winged silhouette have since then accompanied the Maison’s history.
In the secrecy of the workshops, Van Cleef & Arpels’ Mains d’Or™ sculpted the Spirit of Beauty, first fairy clip of the Maison. With its delicate rose-cut diamond face, this doubled-winged figure points her wand towards the Place Vendôme's night sky, illuminating it with sparkling magic.
Symbols of joy and hope, Van Cleef & Arpels fairies emerged during the darkest times of the twentieth century. Their benevolent magic illuminates the creation of the Maison, bringing omens of a glistening destiny.
Guardians of Van Cleef & Arpels’ Enchanted nature, fairies are a jewelry interpretation of Shakespeare’s masterpiece giving birth to the Midsummer Night's Dream High Jewelry collection, in 2003. Puckish little beings, they flutter in shimmering gardens, playing hide-and-seek among colorful flowers.
Luck is in sight
