Van Cleef & Arpels' Perlée collection is above all a line of delicately sculpted jewellery with motifs of gold beads. Now, and for the first time, it extends to three jewellery watches. Each tip of the open bangle-style bracelet ends with a circle, one slightly larger than the other. On the variant shown here, the larger circle is an elegant, white mother-of-pearl dial with a trimming of diamonds which – carrying on the tradition of Secret watches – can be revealed or concealed by a malachite cover. The multiple greens of this uniquely beautiful hard stone make a delightful contrast with the red-orange of the coral that forms the smaller circle. An exquisite play on colours, textures and curves for this jewel of a watch.
