A historic feature in the Maison’s creations, the bird motif reappears on this clip as a vibrant homage to love. In its graceful flight, the dove bears a letter in Traditional Mystery Set rubies, notable for its undulating movement. When the piece is turned over, a rose appears alongside a ribbon of pink gold engraved with the message “L’Amour”.

The refinement of the front, adorned with diamonds and rubies, is echoed by that of the back, with its delicate openwork plate evoking plumage. Set with an emerald on each side to represent the eyes, the dove embodies this collection’s dual nature, at the crossroads of High Jewelry and the art of secrecy.
