Symbols of eternal beauty: The new Les Icônes de Chanel collection

Style icon Coco Chanel was, and still is, a symbol of timeless elegance and beauty. Her signature personal style has set the stage for countless Chanel collections imbued with some of her favourite motifs. The new fine jewellery collection, Les Icônes des Chanel, showcases the beloved icons of the luxury house of Chanel: Comète, Camélia and Plumes. 

 

Taking to heart the modern and powerful yet mysterious aesthetic power of the constellations, Coco Chanel chose the comet and star as essential themes of her first collection, Bijoux de Diamants, in 1932. A symbol of beauty, movement and freedom, the comet continues to inspire new creations. The camellia, on the other hand, became her emblem for its purity and timeless femininity. Last but not least, the feather—a mainstay in the world of Chanel for its embodiment of boldness, audacity and creativity.
