Chaumet Honeycomb Ring
Chaumet Honeycomb Ring
Founder Marie-Etienne Nitot and her team created jewellery pieces featuring the golden bee emblem. It became an important symbol for the emperor and was often featured on his robes, coat of arms and apartments.
In this collection, Bee My Love takes the graphic lines of honeycomb and incorporates them into stunning new designs in mirror-polished gold and diamonds. Amongst them is the new Taille Imperatrice, which re-visits the hexagonal honeycomb through its 88 facets. Its lucky number gives the jewel a greater depth of meaning: like a double evocation of infinity, it captures and intensifies light and sparkle.
1. Gold
Bee is a symbol of power, brightness and divineness. It was the emblem of Napoleon Bonaparte, a faithful customer of Chaumet, and a key figure in the brand’s history. The collection reinterprets this symbol of the emperor with a graphic jewellery line in rose, yellow and white gold and set with diamonds. This new range of jewels, Bee My Love, offers a resolutely modern take on the imperial symbol that has long been associated with the House. It includes rings, bracelets and a cocktail ring in mirror-polished gold and a radiance-boosting Taille Imperatrice cut: 88 facets compared to 57 for a traditional brilliant-cut.
Several of the honeycomb designs feature important colored center stones including tanzanite, pink tourmaline, green tourmaline and citrine, each surrounded by hives set in gold. This is a stunning choice for the high-jewelry wearer who wants to express their personality through an iconic piece. The collection also features a selection of bee-inspired diamond earrings with an articulated setting that interprets the bee’s nest, as well as a bold pendant and pared-down stud or drop earrings in Y-shaped design.
2. Diamonds
A resolutely modern take on the imperial symbol of the bee, this chaumet honeycomb ring boasts a few impressive diamond innovations. First and foremost is the Taille Imperatrice (Empress cut) which combines a hexagonal shape with 88 facets to produce an exceptional shine and radiance. It’s the same cut that gives rise to the aforementioned Bee My Love ring in rose gold and the star of the collection’s finest jewels – a dazzling diamond necklace crafted with pink, yellow or white gold. It also sported a few clever design touches in the form of an alluring bee-shaped crown that sparkles with a little light.
3. Honeycomb
The chaumet honeycomb ring is a classic design that has been popular over the years. These rings are usually made with gold and diamonds, but they can also be made with other metals such as silver and titanium. You can find a variety of different styles of this ring for sale on 1stDibs, including modern creations as well as vintage pieces.
In 2011, Chaumet launched the Bee My Love collection, which is based on the interaction between bees and their hives. This line of jewellery is now expanded to include bracelets and earrings. The collection is a natural extension of the brand’s ongoing commitment to supporting the Terre d’Abeilles association, which aims to protect bees.
The collection features a range of necklaces, rings and earrings in rose, yellow or white gold set with diamonds. The geometric designs shaped in gold instantly convey an assertive air of regal femininity.
These designs are reminiscent of the hexagon and star shapes found in the Taille Imperatrice, an icon that Chaumet has been crafting since 1810. This ring is made from mirror-polished gold with 88 facets, a lucky number for the jeweller.

4. Size
Bees are a symbol of power, brightness and divinity. Napoleon Bonaparte, the great French Emperor and a long time Chaumet customer, wore many bee themed rings. The company took a modern twist on this symbol of elegance by creating the Bee my love jewellery collection. It features a number of bee inspired ring designs, all in the golden yellow or white gold with diamonds pave. The most eye catching of the collection is the Bee Exquises ring which is actually a cocktail ring with an impressively sized tanzanite, pink, green tourmaline or citrine center stone surrounded by hives and bees.
