Jean Schlumberger’s distinctive design aesthetic has long inspired Tiffany & Co’s high jewellery, and now the brand further celebrates the late jeweller’s fascination with the natural world through a roster of innovative and expressive pieces. Ribbons of gold thread and clutches of coloured gemstones set these new one-of-a-kind creations apart. Especially notable is the line’s playful fish-shaped clip brooch, which is sculpted from yellow gold and comes with polished scales set with tsavorites and shimmering turquoise.

Forms’ latest bespoke ring showcases a spectacular Burmese sugarloaf-cut pigeon’s blood ruby, which is encased by four rounded petals cut from lavender-tinged chalcedonies. These almost translucent gems are additionally elevated by thin bands of white gold set with melee diamonds.

Known as the “king of gems”, rubies are often relegated to second place behind the dazzle of diamonds, despite being rarer and more precious. Formed some 450 to 750 million years ago, the Mozambique rubies that adorn Gübelin's new Blushing Beauty chandelier earrings are among the world’s highest-quality gemstones. An oval-cut pair help secure each piece onto the wearer’s ear and, on their own, the stones weigh 3.10 and 3.05 carats.

The Amazon’s towering trees, flooded forests and multicoloured wildlife are what inspired Emily P Wheeler’s La Selva collection, which the designer refined while daydreaming in her hometown of Los Angeles during last year’s numerous Covid-19 lockdowns. The Painted Desert earrings use carefully hand-carved petrified wood, which playfully contrasts with plump pink tourmalines that are framed by white diamonds.

Four new long necklaces have been added to Van Cleef & Arpels’ signature Alhambra collection and to celebrate, the maison has collaborated with French fashion industry icon Carine Roitfeld for a stunning series of photographs that show how best to style these timeless pieces.

Jacques Arpels, the nephew of Estelle Arpels, who was one of the brand’s two founders, famously believed in luck, which is why charms have played an important part in Van Cleef’s designs since the 1920s. For Alhambra, a four-leaf clover takes centre stage and comes set with various hard stones including malachite and lapis lazuli.
