With Or Bleu, Boucheron pushes the boundaries of jewellery design with unparalleled artistry and vision, transforming the ephemeral beauty of water into eternal works of art.
In its latest high jewellery collection Or Bleu, Boucheron takes us on an evocative journey inspired by the beauty and power of water.
Creative Director Claire Choisne has dedicated the collection to this element, not merely as a vital resource but as a muse for some of the most exquisite jewellery ever crafted. Drawing inspiration from Iceland’s raw and untamed landscapes, this set captures the essence of waterfalls, glaciers and ocean waves in 26 unique creations.
One of the most striking pieces is the Cascade necklace. This white gold and diamond marvel is the longest necklace ever created in Boucheron’s ateliers, measuring an impressive 148cm. The neckpiece resembles a waterfall, its delicate design meticulously crafted to reflect the fluidity of water. Comprising 1,816 diamonds of various sizes, Cascade is a multi-wear piece, offering the versatility of transforming into a shorter necklace with detachable sections that can be worn as earrings. The attention to detail and precision required for such a creation speak to the 3,000 hours of craftsmanship invested in bringing this vision to life.
Another highlight is the Iceberg necklace and earrings, inspired by the phenomenal shimmering blocks of ice found on Iceland’s Diamond Beach. The rock crystal used in these pieces is sandblasted to mimic the frosted appearance of icebergs, with diamonds embedded directly into it for a seamless and ethereal effect. This illusionary technique, where the crystalline itself holds the gemstones, results in a piece that appears to float effortlessly around the neck.
The Vague brooch/hair jewel is a tribute to the untamed power of the sea. Echoing a 1910 tiara from Boucheron’s archives, this item is inspired by Hokusai’s iconic wave, The Great Wave off Kanagawa. Crafted using the lost-wax casting technique, it features 851 round diamonds set in white gold, capturing the wave’s movement and energy in a design that is both poetic and powerful, amounting to a total of 20 carats.
