Van Cleef & Arpels presents its newest Lucky Spring creations for Ramadan

Since its foundation in 1906, the French High Jewelry Maison Van Cleef & Arpels has constantly expressed its dedication to creation, transmission and education. To showcase the Lucky Spring creations this Ramadan, Van Cleef & Arpels collaborated with the illustrator Charlotte Gastaut. Starting from March 2023, the windows at Van Cleef & Arpels’ boutiques in the Middle East will unveil the enchanting landscape of a night garden; an oasis where delicate flowers bloom and playful birds fly about the desert dunes under a shining moon. For this collaboration, Charlotte reinterpreted the Maison’s cherished theme of nature, and presented the Maison’s jewelry pieces in this poetic interpretation of Ramadan nights amidst the flora and fauna of the region. Birds, delicate flowers and lush greenery appear as colorful figures emerging from palaces inspired by the lotus flower of the Lucky Spring collection.

Along with its enhanced presence, the Automatic 38 also has a radiant side. Oversized lab-grown diamonds make the rounds of its 18 K red gold or stainless-steel bezel. Its three dial colors (silver, mint green, and ice blue) add just the right amount of aesthetic flair. Diving into Breitling’s Sea universe, the Superocean Automatic 42 perfectly balances the nostalgia of its heritage with a fresh new look. The new Superocean retraces the Slow Motion's celebrated design codes, while adding modern features, like a ceramic-inlayed bezel and colorful dials.
