Blue Book 2025: Sea of Wonder
Wave
Volumes and dimensions collide in the Wave chapter, where each piece captures the dramatic movement of the ocean. One masterpiece necklace evokes an opulent wave that crashes on the neckline; the articulated piece features diamonds that accentuate the electric hues of blue and green cuprian elbaite tourmalines of over 17 total carats.
The Wave designs are inspired by the voluminous forms and motion of Jean Schlumberger’s beloved Leaves necklace. The archival design is reborn in graphic and dimensional masterpieces, including this exquisite brooch showcasing blue and green cuprian elbaite tourmalines of over 5 total carats and diamonds.
Artisans crafted the Wave necklace over a span of approximately 1,000 hours, setting the 18k white and yellow gold design with 105 oval diamonds of over 29 total carats and 734 round diamonds of over 60 total carats.
“It takes hands of true mastery to bring the Sea of Wonder collection to life. Many of the pieces are intricate puzzles to design and craft. The Wave necklace, for example, is a masterpiece of complex engineering. Before this majestic wave could gently embrace the wearer, it underwent hundreds of tests and countless refinements. Each small, precise gesture was painstakingly made and ultimately shaped this impressive piece.”
