Chanel launched this set of Constellation Astrale jewelry sets in the “Escale à Venise” series released in 2021. The design is inspired by the “St. Mark’s Basilica” in Venice and reshapes the “wing lion” on the exterior wall of the church. The dark blue night sky behind it creates a romantic picture of the dazzling galaxy.
The biggest highlight of this group of works is the lapis lazuli inlay to form a mosaic-style substrate, which symbolizes the deep night. The designer cleverly used the natural golden pyrite spots on the surface of lapis lazuli, reminiscent of the gorgeous light of stars. The shape and inlay position of each lapis lazuli have been specially designed, and the side edges are embedded in a slender gold frame, which is connected to form a natural scattered visual effect.
The “eight-pointed star” in the church decoration is redesigned as a “five-pointed star” to pay tribute to the iconic “comet” element in Chanel’s jewelry works. The designer outlines a striking star-shaped outline in gold, with a yellow sapphire center inlaid in the center, and small centimeters on the outer ring. There are also white gold bezel-set round diamonds scattered between the lapis lazuli, which is reminiscent of stars. The flashing moment.
“Constellation Astrale” is composed of 4 pieces in total-the necklace is inlaid with a yellow sapphire weighing 4.47ct, which shines against the stars; the mosaic slices on the bracelet naturally fit the wrist; the ring is shaped as a three-dimensional facet shape , The 4.25ct yellow sapphire in the center is bright and eye-catching; the earrings show exquisite patterns like reliefs, and the yellow sapphires are as bright as stars.
