A jewellery masterpiece

The mesmerizing, fascinating Imperiale Joaillerie decked out in rainbow colours immediately draws all eyes to it. 581 sapphires, more than 1,000 hours of work to select, cut and set stones totalling 47.98 carats: the figures are mind-blowing. Nonetheless, from the very first glance at this creation, such stats vanish to make way for emotions.

This jewellery masterpiece is adorned in subtly graded shades covering the entire colour spectrum – from majestic purple (the emblematic colour of the Imperiale collection) to anise green through an entire galaxy of blues, reds and yellows – running through the thousand and one nuances composing this kaleidoscope of colours. These chromatic variations create a firework-like burst, a dazzling and ever-renewed sight that catches and holds the gaze.

The crown and lug-covers are adorned with amethysts. The selection, cutting and setting of the stones called for exceptional expertise and herculean efforts on the part of the Chopard artisans who lavished 1,012 hours on these operations alone.
