BEJEWELLED with duplication and textural counterparts to create a visual language of rhythm and intensity. The perfect blend of beads, studs and clou carré makes the collection absolutely stand out. These three strong elements project the uncompromising aesthetic of punk, while their tactility invites a playful interaction from the wearer. The pure lines and rounded volume of beads and studs are comfortable, even when pressed against the skin. The signature row of clou carré, which is the striking backbone of this new collection, is doubled up in a new ring and pair of earrings as well as a flexible bracelet and necklace of elegant articulation. All of these are available in rose gold or rose gold set with diamonds. The pieces are strikingly sculptural with fully integrated clasps on the bracelets and necklaces. Furthermore, the twin rows of central studs add appealing volume that captivate the eyes. Cultivating further contrasts with volume, the new XL ring, bracelet, necklace, and earrings see the collection’s signature picot stud find its mirror image across a dividing line of diamond paving. In continuing the spirit of innovation, the Maison added a new material, in the form of onyx, to this new collection. Round onyx beads add depth and a soft, seamless volume that contrasts with the assertive rhythm and shining rose gold of the pointed stud. Lily Collins wearing Clash de Cartier bracelets and ring
