Motifs with strong symbolism, unequivocal messages, jewellery to share or stones with flamboyant reflections... On February 14th, for
Humans have always offered jewelry to express their feelings. Objects of intimacy, universal symbols of attachment, they are the witnesses of a privileged bond with a person, of a particular moment or of a promise.
In India, the mangalsutra necklace worn by married women to mark their union and commitment to their husbands is mentioned as early as the fourth century BC under the name of Mangalya sutra in the Parananuru, a text of Sangam literature, while in Rome, beloved women are adorned with pearls...
An ultra-personal gift, a messenger of love, sometimes hiding secrets between two people, jewelry remains, even today, the ideal gift to touch the loved one in the heart. Perfect for Valentine's Day, but that doesn't stop us from giving ourselves a gift if we're the most important person in our lives!
Heart, ribbon, red or sensual, the jewel takes on all the hidden meanings that we want to attribute to it for this festival of love.
Celebrating free, assumed and daring love... As early as 1972, dinh van made desire a source of inspiration by presenting the Kamasutra medals. Inspired by the thousand-year-old treatise, they whisper the art of loving, the one that unites body and soul. This year, they are reissued to be worn as close as possible to the heart or around the wrist. In the tradition of jewelry with secret messages, these modern talismans are getting a second skin.
What could be more sensual than a necklace that curls up in the hollow of the chest? When
The Manoyas brand invites you to make the Sensuality talisman jewelry on the theme of the lotus, at the same time necklace, ring or hand jewelry, to sublimate each gesture.
A jewel for two, that can be loaned, exchanged, shared... What could be more carnal in the end? Coming from the French Riviera, the jewelry brand D1928 offers, among its unisex capsule, the Coco Beach² ring in gold, diamonds and white pearls that everyone can make their own.

Sensuality is also the order of the day for Love Unlimited by Cartier, a reinterpretation of a jewelry icon, the Love bracelet, born in 1969 in New York from the creative spirit of Aldo Cipullo. This new version takes the form of a soft bracelet, offering new sensations to those who wear it. Faithful to the original vision, LOVE Unlimited plays a radical and powerful score, between the verticality of the gadroons and the roundness of the screws with a sensual jewel that is easy to put on and take off. On the wrist, only a gold ribbon can be seen. It is impossible to imagine that it is actually composed of 200 miniaturized components! Another advantage? Thanks to its clasp, the bracelets can be connected to each other, in pairs or infinitely.
A symbol of the bonds of love, loyalty, respect and trust, the ribbon is also at the heart of Chanel's new First Red Ribbon. The emblematic watch embraces all in red, from the lacquered sunray dial to the velvet-touch strap... "Red is life" said Gabrielle Chanel.
But also passion, desire, excitement, danger... Also flamboyant is the creation born from the meeting between the jewelry house Messika and the Parisian restaurant Lapérouse, 20 years of modernity for the former and 260 years of history for the latter. Exclusively for the mythical Parisian address founded in 1766 and frequented by Maupassant, Zola, Hugo, Rodin and Sarah Bernhardt, a new My Twin Toi & Moi ring is set ablaze with shimmering rubies, as if to recall the private salons and the hushed world of the restaurant.
Red is also available at Sacet, a house known for its wedding rings and engagement rings, which revisits the classic tennis bracelet by integrating a row of rubies.
At Violaine Muras, a delicate white gold motif invokes the shape of the snake, a symbol of eternity, which undulates on a red cord.
Finally,
