Chopard has unveiled its latest high jewelry collection Silk Road, an opulent delight that is even more special since it’s the result of collaboration between two special women: Chopard Co-President Caroline Scheufele and Chinese designer Guo Pei. The collection was presented in a runway show orchestrated by Chopard and Guo Pei, mixing high fashion and high jewelry. Featuring a rainbow of precious gems such as emeralds, rubies, diamonds and jade, the collection has several spectacular pieces. One of the most eye catching ones is an open necklace in blackened silver, white gold, and rubies. Sculptural necklaces made in the image of a flowering vine, collar, several strand choker and string of pearls with surprising color combinations of diamonds, emeralds, and Paraiba tourmalines mark the high jewelry collection. Show-stopping earrings featured carved jadeites, sapphires, and emeralds, and another colorful set boasts chalcedony, Spessartite garnets, rubellites, pink sapphires, topazs, tourmalines and tsavorites. The collection culminated with Pei’s haute couture wedding dress, complemented by a jewelry suite of aluminum, rose gold, and gems.
