House of Gucci has revealed its latest high jewellery at its Gucci Archive in Florence, Italy this week.
The new pieces are inspired by the four seasons, from Gucci’s flora motif symbolising spring, and a piece featuring a magnificent, cushion-cut 226 carat green tourmaline resting in meticulously crafted openwork metal, punctuated with star motifs and diamond baguettes, to meralds, spinels and Paraiba tourmalines, sprinkled with multifaceted diamonds representing summer.
Elsewhere in the collection autumn brings warmer muted tones, with softness through yellow sapphire, pink tourmaline and mandarin garnet.
Finally, winter wraps up the cycle, with pieces inspired by the festive season. Including an enamel and diamond necklace, defined by a milky, iridescent 92 carat opal.
“As an allegory of the cycle of the four seasons, Gucci Allegoria magnifies nature’s ephemeral beauty and its relentless transformability as the collection plays with antique stones and eclectic cuts,” explained a spokesperson for the house.
