Louis Vuitton has unveiled three new additions to its Vivienne fine jewellery collection, bringing fresh interpretations of the House’s playful mascot through intricate craftsmanship, precious gemstones and convertible designs.
First introduced in 2017, Vivienne takes its name from “VVN”, the abbreviation used to identify the natural beige cowhide leather that has become a signature of the French luxury house. Initially conceived as a decorative object, the mascot has since evolved across Louis Vuitton’s different métiers, appearing on leather goods, luggage, accessories and jewellery.
Vivienne made its jewellery debut in 2020, transforming the Monogram Flower motif into an articulated character adorned with precious materials and gemstones. The latest additions continue this evolution with three collectable creations that can be worn either as pendants or brooches, drawing on the tradition of convertible jewellery.
The first design, Vivienne Heart, takes a romantic direction. Crafted in yellow and white gold and set with diamonds, the piece features gold trousers engraved with roses and an envelope sealed with a deep-red lacquer heart. Its four-petalled face is framed by heart-shaped elements, with successive layers of enamel creating the intense colour and luminosity of the finish.
Vivienne Four-Leaf, meanwhile, draws on the symbolism of good fortune and protection. Combining yellow gold, diamonds, malachite, wood and lacquer, the design features four deep-green malachite petals surrounding a diamond-set face. Each stone is cut and hand-polished to achieve symmetrical natural patterns and a consistent finish. A miniature red-lacquer ladybird adds a playful detail, alongside hidden references to a playing card and a horseshoe.
The third creation, Vivienne Stars, takes inspiration from the night sky. Its pavé setting combines round diamonds, moonstone, 106 blue, violet and pink sapphires, and rose-hued spinels. The decorative figure holds a shooting star, while its face is fashioned from shimmering moonstone and framed by bezel-set diamonds. The design also introduces an LV Monogram Star-cut diamond, marking the first time this interpretation of the House’s emblematic motif has appeared in the Vivienne jewellery collection.
Together, the three creations extend Louis Vuitton’s jewellery universe, bringing together technical expertise, precious materials and the distinctive character of one of the House’s most recognisable motifs.
