Description

A dazzling immersion into the universe of Chaumet, the Parisian High Jewellery Maison. The Spirit of Chaumet offers an unparalleled journey into the world of the exclusive Parisian High Jewellery Maison, showcasing its key creations, stylistic principles and multifaceted history going back more than 240 years. This is a rare chance to discover the behind-the-scenes life of a High Jewellery Maison and to admire its one-of-a-kind creations, many seldom seen in print. Organized thematically in twelve sections (in homage to the Maison’s historic address: 12 Vendôme), the book explores the core elements of Chaumet’s identity and creativity, from its Parisian roots to its cosmopolitan clientele and sources of inspiration, its iconic tiaras, inventiveness, arresting use of colour, playful spirit, nature-inspired designs and more. Written by jewellery expert Gabrielle de Montmorin and benefitting from generous access to the Maison’s archives, this book is a definitive record of one of the world’s great jewellery maisons, whose loyal clients have included Empresses Joséphine and Eugénie.
