Bursting onto the fine jewelry scene in 2015, the Color Blossom collection is among the Maison’s most emblematic and distinctive signatures. Inspired by two flowers of the iconic LV Monogram, which Georges Louis-Vuitton created in 1896, the LV Monogram comes to life from Color Blossom’s carved and voluminous, bombe-style stones, all encased in a gold frame. Radiant and voluptuous, each stone is handpolished to bring forth their subtle luster and iridescence, from organic to ornamental stones. Enchanting pink and white mother-of-pearl flowers sit alongside stronger colors of luxuriant malachite, rich red cornelian and intense, opaque onyx. A full range of sizes and interpretations – pendants, earrings, rings and bracelets – make this one of Louis Vuitton’s most versatile and vivid collections.
The Maison now welcomes a special new ornamental stone – Amazonite – to the Color Blossom family. Named after the Amazon River in Brazil, where the stone was first believed to be discovered, Amazonite is celebrated for its minty blue-green hue and rich variety of tones from light green and turquoise to greenish blue. The stone is notably famed for its distinctive, eye-catching inclusions, which makes each gem utterly unique, while its fresh and sensual translucency bring a wonderful accompaniment to Color Blossom’s existing repertoire of more powerful colors. Paired with yellow gold to accentuate the stone’s unique color, the Amazonite flower opens endless possibilities for self-styling, layering and stacking alongside the full range of Color Blossom jewels.
The stone makes its debut in four new jewels. A single flower dangles from a pendant necklace, accented with a round brilliant diamond on a yellow gold chain. The design is echoed in a chic bracelet, again with a small diamond paired to a single Amazonite flower. These everyday styles are complemented by more statement pieces in an elegant sautoir and bracelet, adorned with alternating Amazonite and diamond pave flowers. The sautoir is especially precious, with each of the Amazonite and diamond flowers set with stones on both sides. A fresh and exciting new addition to the collection, Amazonite perfectly embodies the vivacity and joie de vivre of the Louis Vuitton Color Blossom collection.
