The Millefoglie collection by de Grisogono: rings, bracelets and earrings in white or pink gold with diamonds ♦ ︎
If you are in Italy and ask for a millefeuille they give you a slice of cake with puff pastry and cream. But if you go to Switzerland, in Geneva, in the flagship store of de Grisogono, you will be more fortunate: they will bring you the jewels of the Millefoglie collection. It gives a sweet feeling, but it is sugar-free, don’t put you weight, and it certainly makes your appearance look better than what comes with a cake-based diet. The Millefoglie collection by de Grisogono is made up of jewels created by juxtaposing pink or white gold plates, to which are added brilliant cut diamonds, even of a certain carat and sometimes irregularly set. The layers of gold are parallel but at the same time undulating. This oscillatory pattern of the design creates a movement that increases the charm of the jewel and makes it more interesting. Furthermore, it makes the pieces wearable despite their grandeur. The collection consists of a pair of earrings, a ring and a double-loop bracelet, which literally wraps around the wrist with its irregular waves.
