About the collection

Lucky Animals is the name of a new collection of whimsical clips that will surely delight fans of the venniparous Maison. These small but mighty baubles are a modern day take on the popular La Boutique range, a ‘teeny tiny’ collection of jewelry that was a fad in the fifties. As the namesake suggests, the collection features whimsical animals and one off pieces inspired by the ‘cartoonists’ of our time.

The collection’s marquee piece is a dazzling lion clip in yellow gold. As with the collection, it is a true ‘one of a kind’ experience that is sure to please any Van Cleef & Arpels aficionado. For a limited window, you’ll be treated to a gander at what ails this regal lion – be it by night, day, or even on your nightstand. It may be too late for you to join the flock, but you can still get a taste of the glitzy gizmo, for a fraction of the price of a full priced necklace or bangle. So, if you’re looking to add some bling to your bauble collection, make a point of visiting the lucky few boutiques that have them on offer. You’re bound to get some friendly company in the process. Besides, who doesn’t love a good lion? This king of the castle may have a few other thorns in its side, but that’s a different story.

About the lion

One of its more recent endeavors, the Lucky Animals collection, is the perfect place to find a plethora of evocative pieces. Whether you are looking for a regal elephant sized specimen or something smaller and more portable, the collection will enchant. The brand has a knack for putting a modern spin on classics, courtesy of a stellar design team and a nifty studio.

To the casual observer, the brand’s most recent release combines two major sources of inspiration, namely the 1950s and the ’90s. Specifically, the Lucky Animals line melds a horde of small scale creations that pay homage to the house’s rich heritage while at the same time being more than a bit playful. Aside from the aforementioned lion, the line includes a few other whimsical creatures that aficionados will be pleased to see in the wild. Whether you have a sweet tooth for pigs or you’re more of a cat person, the collection has something for you.

Lastly, the brand’s latest and greatest release comes in a streamlined form that’s both aesthetically pleasing and functional. Among its many offerings, the most notable is the “Big Dog” pendant. The aforementioned piece measures just over 4 inches in diameter and is made of 18k yellow gold with an apricot finish.

Mother-of-pearl or mother-of-pearl?

Mother of pearl is a natural substance found in the shell of oysters and freshwater mussels. The inner shell is lined with a nacre coating, which is a shiny iridescent finish.

Mother of pearl is used to make jewelry, ornaments, and furniture. Its soft iridescent finish reflects light to create a multicolored effect. In some areas, it is also used to decorate architectural structures.

Traditionally, pearls were valued as a precious gemstone. They are mainly used in necklaces and earrings. During the Victorian era, mother of pearl inlay became popular.

Mother of pearl is an organic-inorganic composite material. Its origins are unclear. However, it is believed to have originated from nacre-lined shells.

Mother of pearl is known to be a symbol of prosperity and good luck in many cultures. It is considered a protective element against parasites and foreign irritants.

It is said to bring peace, confidence, and intuition. As such, it is often used in mystical work. Among other applications, it is used to adorn musical instruments, guitars, and watch faces.

Mother of pearl is typically white or cream in color. It can also be red or gray.

Mother of pearl can be easily formed. However, its particle formation is rare. So it is important to select a supplier who is committed to ethical farming practices.

Mother of pearl was used in ancient Egypt, China, India, and Mesopotamia. It was also used for architecture and clothing. For example, it was a favorite of the ruling class in China during the Shang and Ming Dynasties.

Until recently, it was used for a variety of purposes. Today, it is used to make decorative pieces, jewelry, and doorknobs.
