Floral jewelry has been a tradition of the French jewelry house Van Cleef & Arpels since it opened its first boutique at the Place Vendôme, in 1906, resulting in wearable blooms formed by precious materials that accentuate their charm. More than 100 pieces from this history currently shine at at the Hotel d’Evreux, the regal exhibition space next to the Ritz Hotel in Paris, in the company’s new exhibition “Florae” (on view through November 14), presented alongside floret-filled photographs by Japanese photographer and film director Mika Ninagawa.
