My precious
Van Cleef & Arpels' new high jewellery collection Le Secret follows the revered maison's tradition of creating jewellery and transforming them into personal treasures laced with an element of mystery. Here are five of our favourite "secrets".
PÉGASE NECKLACE
Sporting a stunning centre 45.10-carat sapphire stone from Sri Lanka, this transformable necklace brings together Van Cleef & Arpels High Jewelry's most virtuoso savoir-faire. This pièce de résistance took more than 2,200 hours to create at the Parisian jeweller's workshop in Place Vendôme.
LE SECRET: The largest drop diamond pendant has a hidden miniature white gold Pegasus figurine and can be worn with the main necklace, or detached and suspended from a clip to be worn as a brooch.
