This set of rings and pendants is from Boucheron’s 2021 new High Jewelry collection, “Wladimir, The Cat”. The designs are inspired by Wladimir, the pet cat of Gérard Boucheron, the brand’s third-generation heir. Crafted from gold and diamonds to portray the proud demeanor of the pet cat, the most charming detail is that it is depicted wearing a magnificent gemstone necklace.


Wladimir was a black long-haired cat adopted by Gérard Boucheron in the 1970s. In the 1980s, Wladimir began his “modeling” career, frequently photographed wearing luxurious jewelry, resulting in many classic and adorable advertising campaigns for Boucheron.

This jewelry suite skillfully captures Wladimir’s proud posture while wearing a necklace. The three-dimensional silhouette of the cat is sculpted from gold, with diamonds representing its lustrous fur. The perked-up ears are mirror-polished to reflect brilliant light. The cat’s lively eyes are created using nested stone settings, and its nose is adorned with pink lacquer. The highlight is the exquisite gemstone necklace it wears, emphasizing a playful yet noble temperament.

The suite consists of four pieces, available in white gold or gold versions as pendants and rings.

The White Gold version is paved with white diamonds, resembling pure white fur. The eyes are crafted with nested stones like tsavorites and black sapphires. The focal point is the tsavorite necklace adorning the cat’s neck, its rich hue harmonizing with the deep green eyes.

The Yellow Gold version features gold complemented by champagne diamond pave, the warm golden tone mimicking a cat’s natural coat color, with gold edges outlining the fluffy, soft fur. The necklace at the front is composed of a drop-cut diamond and graduated round diamonds, creating a sparkling radiance.
