Couture Creations: Le Vian’s High Jewellery Collection is a Gemstone Paradise
Another highlight of my visit to JCK Las Vegas this year was Le Vian, which presented a dizzying array of high jewellery, fine jewellery, 2024 trends, and even a catwalk show to highlight its new creations. Here, I would like to focus on its High Jewellery Couture Collection, featuring pieces with price points ranging from $20,000 to $3 million. If you are enticed by juicy coloured gemstones, neon Paraiba tourmalines and tantalising blueberry-hued tanzanites, then this is the selection for you…
With so many new jewels presented by Le Vian at JCK Las Vegas, it’s hard to know where to start! Fortunately, I gave myself an advantage by selecting one Le Vian creation for my ‘Best of JCK’ round-up, which you can read here. I was blown away by the sheer size and proportions of a Le Vian amethyst necklace from the Couture High Jewellery Collection. It’s set with 192 carats of grape-coloured amethysts, 30 carats of Chocolate Diamonds, and three carats of ‘Vanilla’ Diamonds, all set in a rich and warm 18k rose gold framework. Of course, this wasn’t the only Le Vian High Jewellery piece to turn heads in Las Vegas, so let’s look at some more jewels below.

Le Vian Couture High Jewellery Collection
Colour abounds in this high-end collection of jewels, including fancy-colour diamonds, precious gemstones, unusual gem materials, bi-colour tourmalines and much more. I am naturally drawn to the oceanic hues of peacock aquaprase – a new type of chalcedony discovered this century. The Morgan earrings feature 30 carats of oval-shaped cabochon peacock aquaprases, set with Vanilla and Chocolate Diamonds, while the Artista necklace boasts 114 carats of cabochons and nearly nine carats of diamonds.

If blues are your forte, then the Le Vian Couture Collection boasts beautiful sapphires and tanzanites. The Elsie pendant is set with a 2.98-carat pear-shaped cornflower Ceylon sapphire, plus rows of blue sapphires and colourless diamonds in platinum, while the Maise ring boasts a similarly vibrant 3.03-carat pear-shaped corundum. The Grace ring contains what Le Vian calls a ‘Blueberry Sapphire’ of 3.21 carats, so named for a subtle shift of purple, coupled with baguette- and round brilliant-cut diamonds and Chocolate Diamonds. The same descriptive term of ‘Blueberry’ is also associated with the brand’s tanzanite jewels, including the Aliyah earrings with two cushion-shaped gems of 28.82 carats total and the Zahra necklace with 173.91 carats of graduated cushion-shaped tanzanites in an alternating flower motif. I must also mention the brand’s Paraiba tourmalines, especially a 7.12-carat heart-shaped Paraiba ring with rows of oval-shaped and round brilliant-cut diamonds for 2.78 carats.
