The Art of TRANSFORMATION !!

Van Cleef and Arpels mastered the art of creating breath-taking jewelry made of the highest quality stones in the world and designing these jewels in a way that metamorphosis into different useful pieces !!

The pair of cuff bracelets created for Daisy Fellowes, eccentric author and leading figure of elegant society in the Thirties, transforms into a choker necklace.



The emblematic Passe-partout (1939) turns into a short or long necklace, bracelet, clip, shoulder ornament or a belt

The Scylla set from the L’Atlantide collection (2008) is entirely articulated and represents a dragon whose head and tail transform into 2 clips.
 Lastly and definitely not least a gift fit for a princess created by VCA for HRH Princess Charlene de Monaco

The Océan set is a necklace that can be transformed in a tiara. For Van Cleef & Arpels, the transformation of a jewel is a major creative theme. Inspired by the observation of the natural world where change and renewal are essential, the Maison creates emotion with “jewels in movement”.
