This high-collar diamond choker is part of Louis Vuitton’s 2024 Awakened Hands, Awakened Minds High Jewelry collection. Drawing inspiration from 19th-century French industrial design, the piece employs a dynamic arrangement of diamonds to create a striking, speed-infused “V” motif — both dazzling and powerful in its visual impact.
Crafted in white gold, the necklace features an intricate interplay of brilliant-cut diamonds forming layered, interlocking “V” shapes. The progressive depth of the design symbolizes the rapid advancement of industrialization while simultaneously highlighting the brand’s iconic initial. The piece required an extraordinary 2,733 hours to complete.
At the center of the necklace, three perfectly cut gemstones are set in vertical alignment: a 7.08-carat cushion-cut sapphire from Madagascar, a 20.10-carat cushion-cut sapphire from Sri Lanka—both of exceptional quality and velvety blue hue—and finally, a 2.51-carat LV Monogram Star-cut diamond graded D color and IF clarity, serving as the brilliant focal point of the creation.
