Gucci Unveils High Jewelry Collection Across Four Thematic Chapters
Gucci has launched a new High Jewelry collection organized into four chapters: Gucci Flora, Gucci Nodo, Everlasting G, and Iconic Signatures. The Flora chapter revisits Vittorio Accornero's 1966 motif originally created for Grace Kelly, featuring poppy suites with rubies and rubellite tourmalines, lily pieces with blue sapphires, orchid jewels with pink Madagascan sapphires, and peony designs. The Nodo chapter draws on nautical rope motifs from the 1960s, incorporating aquamarines, emeralds, black ruthenium, Sri Lankan yellow sapphires, canary Zimmi diamonds, Paraiba tourmalines, Colombian fan-cut emeralds, and a 25.79-carat pear-cut Santa Maria aquamarine. Everlasting G reinterprets the Gucci logo in elongated geometric forms with green tourmalines and blush-red spinels. Iconic Signatures features the Horsebit motif with tsavorites and tanzanites, and the Marina Chain with golden beryls and yellow sapphires. The collection emphasizes Italian craftsmanship, using titanium and au jour techniques.
