Chanel introduced this intricate diamond and ruby necklace in its 2023 “Tweed de Chanel” High Jewelry collection. It masterfully blends two of the brand’s iconic design elements: the “Lion” motif and “Tweed” fabric. The gold collar features an ingeniously lightweight, interlaced structure reminiscent of fabric, while the central platinum lion pendant is set with a 10.17-carat pear-shaped diamond as its centerpiece.

The design of this gold and diamond collar pays homage to tweed, with its interwoven metal structure creating the impression of a light and soft textile. The front of the necklace is set with 37 large oval-cut rubies. Each oval ruby is surrounded by round ruby melee, resembling embroidered decorations on a tweed garment.

The centerpiece is a diamond-set lion pendant. The form of the three-dimensional, openwork sculpted lion is outlined with round diamonds. The bottom of the pendant is set with the impressive 10.17-carat pear-shaped diamond, certified as D Color and Flawless (FL) clarity, like a treasure guarded by the lion.

The entire piece required 2400 hours of craftsmanship and notably incorporates a convertible design. The central platinum lion can be detached and worn as a brooch, and the suspended pear-shaped diamond can also be removed and set as the primary stone of a ring, offering versatile styling possibilities.
