Louis Vuitton has just released stunning new pieces in the LV Volt Fine Jewelry collection that further serve as symbols of the universal vocabulary within the Louis Vuitton brand. First imagined in 2020 by the Maison’s artistic director for jewelry and watches, Francesca Amfitheatrof, the collection continues to evolve, pushing stereotypical jewelry boundaries and ultimately creating versatile, everyday pieces. Conceived as a leitmotif, the signature “L” and “V” intertwine their clean lines to create an abstract and architectural motif in which the two initials become the empowering graphic language used throughout the collection.

Amfitheatrof has reimagined iconic pieces within the collection, like the LV Volt Play bracelets, which now are featured in two sizes in 18-karat yellow gold and as interchangeable bracelets with an innovative braid of sparkling yellow-gold threads with red or black polyamide fibers. The collection also introduces pieces now set with diamonds on the pendants and ear studs in white or yellow gold, as well as a vocabulary of new shapes and handpolished indentations in the precious metal that echo the shape of the iconic LV initials.
