Les Blés Moisson d’Or diamond jewellery watch with yellow sapphires

EDITOR'S REVIEW

Wheat plays a central role in the Les Blés de Chanel high jewellery and watch collection as it was one of Gabrielle Chanel’s favourite motifs and lucky charms. The scent of sun-warmed corn was a constant in her countryside childhood and she brought its wholesome goodness to Paris with wheat motifs dotted around her ornate apartment on rue Gambon. The Moisson (harvest) jewellery watch captures the golden fields of wheat in the late summer with seven brilliant-cut yellow sapphires weighing 1.4cts and 119 yellow sapphire beads totalling 48cts. A further 5.6cts of diamonds add a solar shine to this spectacular watch.
