Watches
For years, Van Cleef & Arpels has been creating jewelry that pays tribute to nature, mythology and astrology. Since the 1950s, the French brand has been producing zodiac-inspired items, from cufflinks to charms, watches, and lucky charms. Now, it has reinterpreted its emblematic designs with the introduction of the Zodiaque collection. These jewellery pieces combine the house’s expertise with precious materials. Specifically, the collection features two distinct ranges of medallions.
One of these is the Zodiaque Lumineux. The watch features a luminous dial that reflects the astrological symbol of each zodiac sign. As well as being a functional device, the Lumineux is also a beautiful piece of jewelry. Its dazzling design makes use of both yellow and rose gold. The bracelet, meanwhile, is made of 22-carat rose gold vermeil, which is a fine example of the craftsmanship that goes into the making of these pieces.
In addition to its watchmaking prowess, Van Cleef & Arpels is known for its use of precious stones. In fact, the House of Arpels has produced a number of zodiac-themed pieces, from lucky charms to cufflinks to necklaces. Those pieces were designed with the aid of various gemstones, including diamonds and mother-of-pearl. Each of the gemstones is chosen for its aesthetic and technical properties, such as opacity, translucidity and color nuance.
The zodiac has always fascinated Van Cleef & Arpels designers. The first Zodiac medals were produced in the 1950s. They were worn by men and adorned with various materials, such as wood and diamonds. During the following decades, the firm introduced a number of astrology-themed collections. Those included medals, cufflinks, and mixed-size charms. But it wasn’t until 2014, when the House of Arpels introduced its Zodiaque Lumineux watch, that the company really paid homage to its astrological past.
While the Zodiaque medal may be a little overstated, the Zodiaque Lumineux bracelet is a much more accurate homage to the symbolism of the zodiac. The bracelet features an astrological symbol, a corresponding date in Romanian, and a solid gold link. This is the same style that was used on the Zodiaque Lumineux, and it was one of the most popular bracelets that Van Cleef & Arpels produced.
Another Zodiaque item is the Zodiaque necklace. This piece is a bit smaller than the Lumineux necklace, but still boasts a beautiful array of colorful ornamental stones. And since the necklace is accompanied by a ring, this piece is a definite must-have for any jewelry collector. Moreover, the necklace features a unique backdrop of a variety of motifs, all resembling the signs of the zodiac. Among the most eye-catching are the opals, garnets, and peridots adorning the background. Other ornamental stones are the more practical, such as turquoise, malachite, and amazonite.
Necklaces
If you’re interested in jewelry that is inspired by the stars and planets, look no further than the new Van Cleef & Arpels Zodiaque necklaces. This collection takes inspiration from the house’s rich heritage and combines emblematic techniques and rare ornamental stones. Each piece in the line features a three-dimensional representation of a zodiac sign on one side and a corresponding date on the other. The motifs are worked in pure yellow gold.
The gemstones used in this line are chosen for their translucence, opacity, and visual impact. To create harmonious color compositions for each element, the Maison has chosen stones that evoke each sign in its own right. The earth signs, for example, are represented by malachite with undulating motifs. Blue quartz represents the water signs. In addition to these precious materials, the line is adorned with a variety of colorful, rare ornamental stones. Red jasper, red pietersite, and aventurine are all represented in the collection. Adding to the opulence of the collection, the collection is crafted in a range of hardstones, including pale blue quartz, green malachite, and striated iron eye.
Zodiaque medals are also part of the collection. They are 21mm in diameter and are forged in yellow gold. Each is engraved with the corresponding date of the star sign, in Roman numerals. Throughout the decades, the House has produced various types of astrological-inspired jewelry, from necklaces to rings and bracelets. These pieces were popular in the 1970s, but have recently returned to the forefront.
For the Zodiaque collection, the Maison has created two distinct sets of jewellery, which feature a wide variety of ornamental stones. Some of the most striking creations include a series of pendants fashioned in pale yellow gold. One sculpted gold ram resembles an ancient coin. Another, an intensely glittering blue lapis lazuli, is a symbol of Libra. There are also a series of earrings that feature semi-precious stones of the birthstones of each zodiac sign.
Aside from the Zodiaque collections, Van Cleef & Arpels has also released a range of limited edition watches. The Maison has been creating pieces that are influenced by the stars and planets since the 1950s. Over the years, the house has re-created the original zodiac medals, but has also introduced more modern, graphically-styled versions. Since 2014, the Maison has also been incorporating the zodiac on watch dials. The Midnight Planetarium Poetic Complication is one of the most awe-inspiring pieces in this line. It is a complex complication that combines time with spheres.
While the Zodiaque collection reflects the cosmological nature of the Maison, it is also very poetic in its expression. The different colors and textures of the gemstones add a dazzling layer of movement to the ensemble. Unlike traditional astrological jewelry, each piece is decorated with a three-dimensional artistic representation of the zodiac on two sides.
Gemstones
For more than a century, Van Cleef & Arpels has been creating jewellery. Dedicated to the beauty of natural materials, the house has focused on emblematic creations. Among its most celebrated pieces are zodiac-inspired charms and lucky charms. In recent years, however, the brand has taken its expertise in fine jewelry to a whole new level with the launch of its Zodiaque collection. This collection features a series of solid yellow gold medals and a range of necklaces encrusted with rare ornamental stones. These pieces are an homage to the Maison’s craftsmanship.
Each of the signs in the Western zodiac has long fascinated the Maison’s designers. The house’s expertise in jewellery and watchmaking is showcased in its Zodiaque jewellery collection. In particular, the Sous les Etoiles series pays homage to the heavens. Designed to complement the stargazer’s passion for the night sky, this collection features a wide variety of complex techniques.
Ornamental stones are chosen for their opacity, colour nuance, and translucidity. These characteristics give each piece its unique character. They also add an extra dimension to relief tableaux. Moreover, they give a sparkling, shimmering effect to a creation. During the design process, the Maison’s experts work with lapidaries to create harmonious ensembles of ornamental stones.
Since the 1950s, Van Cleef & Arpels produced a variety of astrology-themed jewelry. Aside from pendants and bracelets, the brand produced cufflinks and mixed-size charms. As well as these, the brand offered gold medals in a variety of sizes. With time, the brand has expanded the range of its medals.
From the 1970s, the brand has started producing more colourful pendants. These necklaces feature stylised elements related to each sign of the Zodiac, accompanied by a backdrop of ornamental stones. Depending on the theme, these pendants may feature a zodiac symbol, a figure or even a date. It is no wonder that the Duchess of Windsor was a regular client. She acquired a double-strand necklace featuring 17 emeralds. Later, the chain was shortened and converted into a choker.
The Zodiaque collection was inspired by the company’s extensive heritage. In fact, the first Zodiac medals were created for King Edward VIII, and the brand has since recreated them. There are now two jewellery sets based on the Western zodiac: one is composed of solid gold medals and the other is composed of necklaces and earrings. Whether worn alone or together, each piece of this collection is unique.
Each of the symbols of the signs in the Zodiac is depicted on the reverse side of each medal. In this way, each piece is unique, and a person can wear them in the style of their birth sign. Several celebrities have been seen wearing zodiac-inspired jewelry more often in the last year.
