Every holiday season brings its own sense of sparkle, but Chaumet created a world that felt especially enchanting this year. The Maison unveiled a festive universe inspired by a whimsical treasure hunt through Paris—a city glowing under a winter sky, its zinc rooftops shimmering, and Place Vendôme dusted with snow. Inside this story, the Maison’s iconic blue boxes appeared like hidden clues, each revealing one of Chaumet’s beloved creations: Bee de Chaumet, Liens and Joséphine. The narrative blended playfulness with Parisian elegance, setting the tone for a holiday season shaped by emotion, craftsmanship and the joy of giving.
Bee de Chaumet emerged with a radiant energy, its graphic lines and mirror-polished gold capturing the light like small bursts of winter fire. The collection expanded this season with pieces that wrapped around the body with fluid flexibility, resembling second-skin jewellery infused with brilliance. High Jewellery brooches adorned with a 19.05-carat aquamarine and an 11.07-carat sapphire introduced a spectacular expression of Chaumet’s savoir-faire, while pavé diamond bees perched delicately on toi-et-moi rings and tasselled sautoirs, adding movement and unexpected softness to evening dressing.
Liens offered a more intimate mood. Described by the Maison as symbolic and meaningful, the collection centred on the emotion of connection—an understated luxury for those who cherish sentiment as much as style. Jeux de Liens pendants gained new volume for the festive season in yellow gold, white gold with sapphires, or full pavé designs. Harmony medallions, engraved with crossed links and edged in diamonds, carried the gentle aura of personal talismans meant to be worn close to the heart.
Joséphine brought another tone entirely: regal, feminine and bold. Inspired by the aigrette silhouette loved by Empress Joséphine, the collection shimmered through V-shaped necklaces, pear-shaped diamonds and elegant rings that curved like miniature crowns. Aquamarines, pearls and Chaumet’s signature sculptural pavé enhanced each piece’s sensuality, creating a refined interplay of texture and rhythm well-suited to festive soirées. Even the Joséphine Aigrette watch offered a poetic way to tell time, its pear-shaped dial framed in diamonds on a Chaumet-blue strap.
This year, Chaumet’s holiday offering wasn’t presented as a collection alone—it was an invitation. A journey through a Paris made magical by winter light, where blue boxes glowed like small promises and every jewel felt like the discovery of a secret. For anyone seeking gifts that carry emotion and artistry, the Maison offered a season of possibility shaped by gold, diamonds and the poetry of Paris itself.
