The first chapter, "Eternal Bloom," showcases the enduring plant world, a constant source of renewal and inspiration. The Wild Rose necklace, pictured here, draws inspiration from a 1920s masterpiece by Joseph Chaumet. Adorned with diamonds, Fairmined gold, an 8.23-carat Fancy Vivid Yellow VS2 diamond, the necklace required 1,500 hours of craftsmanship.

Continuing Chaumet's legacy of goldsmithing, the Oat and Field Star set captures a field of oats and starflowers swaying in the breeze. Over 1,300 hours were dedicated to assembling the piece, with golden oats contrasting against the starflowers.

The Clover and Fern set combines diamonds and emeralds. Three untreated Colombian emeralds, totaling 11.63 carats, provide a vibrant green hue. Clover blossoms unfurl on a bed of ferns, forming an elegant necklace.

The second chapter, "Ephemeral Blossom," derives its name from the fleeting beauty of flowers like sword lilies, carnations, and sweetshrubs, often celebrated in poetry.

The Sword Lily set elevates the flower with diamond vines that echo Chaumet's signature spiral motif representing nature. The “fil couteau” setting technique renders the metal framework nearly invisible, creating a floating effect for seven exceptional Mozambique rubies weighing a total of 14.03 carats.

Draped in Chaumet's characteristic blue, the Carnation set exudes purity. The necklace transforms into a V-shape, reminiscent of the brand's signature aigrette motif. A 36.44-carat Ceylon sapphire, with its deep blue color, hangs from the necklace.

Actress Gao Yuanyuan wears the Carnation necklace and ring.

The Sweetshrub necklace combines pearls, sapphires, and spinels to create a delicate pink, almost aquatic hue. Chaumet's creative use of pearls dates back to 1805 when Marie-Etienne Nitot adorned Pope Pius VII's crown with 2,990 pearls.

The third chapter, "Resurgent Bloom," features four flowers cherished by Empress Josephine, celebrating nature's rebirth. Bluebirds and dragonflies are depicted in flight or perched on the jewelry pieces. The Magnolia Grandiflora set, pictured, reflects the magnolia's generous beauty. A bluebird brooch showcases Chaumet's gem-setting artistry.

The Fairy Iris set captures the delicacy of wild irises swaying in the wind, accented by whimsical dragonflies. Five gold-sculpted flowers adorn the necklace, their petals resting on intertwined diamond "streams," highlighting the pastel palette of blue, purple, and pink Vietnamese spinels, totaling 24.36 carats.

The Dahlia set conveys the flower's elegance through gold and diamonds. The crown, featuring five detachable blossoms, can be worn in five different ways. The design draws inspiration from an 1850 tiara by Jean-Baptiste Fossin.

Combining spinels and topaz, the Water Lily set celebrates the flower's graceful beauty. Like Impressionist painter Claude Monet capturing the sky's reflection on a vibrant lily pond, Chaumet creates a play of subtle light in this jewelry set.

Chaumet also highlights the bee, an emblem closely tied to the brand's history since Emperor Napoleon I adopted it as a royal symbol. Having served humanity for over 2,600 years, this vital pollinator is honored in "Jewels by Nature" with seven different bee brooches.

All 54 designs celebrate nature with free-flowing forms and colors. Chaumet ensures the traceability of all raw materials used. As a member of the Responsible Jewellery Council, the brand selects diamonds adhering to the Kimberley Process and current regulations. Similarly, the company's gemologists select colored gemstones according to the strictest criteria.
