Diamond Stud Earrings: The Ultimate Must-Have

Diamond Stud Earrings: The Ultimate Must-Have

Just like wardrobe essentials, diamond stud earrings are pieces every woman should own. Timeless, chic, and versatile, with a central natural diamond that shines, stud earrings match any style.

Spotlight on High Jewelry

Spotlight on High Jewelry

At the occasion of the January Haute Couture week in Paris, certain Houses present their new collections. Headlights on this week’s classical yet contemporary show. The Maison Chaumet goes back to classics with the 4 precious and fine pearls for secure values: sapphires, diamonds, rubies, emeralds. A great contrast compared to their collection Trésors d’Afrique from this summer, but what exquisite beauty with such incredible stones. A return to the classics from the Art Deco period. We loved its simplicity, efficiency and the beauty of the stones, particularly the yellow diamonds.
