LOUIS VUITTON, presents Blossom its watch and jewelry collection

1

Monogram Flowers, symbols of the House, enter a fresh new era with the launch of a double collection: a line of jewelry and precious watches. The highlight of each is a collection of flowers sculpted in mother-of-pearl or hard stone to evoke a feminine delicacy, sublimated by Louis Vuitton savoir-faire.

Three-dimensional work in mother-of-pearl and hard stone allows the Fleur de Monogram to blossom on sautoirs, necklaces, bracelets and earrings in the Blossom jewelry line. Grey or white mother-of-pearl, carnelian or tiger’s eye combine to echo the colorama of the Maison Louis Vuitton, a warm harmony of brown and gold. This softness is echoed in the feel of the pieces: sculpted and polished by hand, the stones and mother-of-pearl offer a rounded profile that contrasts with the finesse of the yellow or rose gold chains. A golden nail, evocative of those used on Louis Vuitton trunks, pricks at the heart of certain petals. Set in a circle or rhombus, the Fleur de Monogram embodies the House’s heritage and savoir-faire. A tribute to subtlety, sublimated by two haute joaillerie pieces, including a sautoir entirely paved with diamonds and a necklace with mother-of-pearl medallions sculpted on a strand of Tahitian pearls. Between harmony and sensuality, the Blossom collection allows one of Louis Vuitton’s great symbols to blossom in the absolute rules of its jewelry art.

Tinted pink or blue, the Fleur de Monogram at the center of the Blossom watch dial is yet another example of the savoir-faire of the Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton. Each flower is sculpted in three dimensions from a solid piece of mother-of-pearl, the details and shapes appearing with each movement of the hand, inspired by the cameo technique. Shades of blue or pink are then applied to the back of the piece, again by hand, to achieve a graduated effect of nuances: the absolute delicacy and finesse of handcrafted workmanship that enables us to design ever more exceptional dials. While the colored mother-of-pearl flower adorns the dial of every watch, it is also surrounded by diamonds, from the steel model with bezel and hour markers set in diamonds to a pink gold version with a dial entirely set in snow. Cases and crowns are also adorned with diamonds on the Tambour Spin Time and Tambour Monogram Tourbillon.
On the Tambour Monogram Tourbillon, one of the flower petals reveals the flower-shaped cage of the tourbillon, a movement designed by the Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton. As on the Tambour Spin Time, whose movement allows the time to be read thanks to a system of rotating diamond-paved cubes placed around the central flower. The tone-on-tone alligator strap matches the pink or blue Fleur de Monogram.
