Did you know that Chanel designs have been inspired by Mademoiselle Gabrielle Chanel's luck charms or some other items that she adored? For instance, the comet as she defines it as "timeless and eternally modern"; pearls that she first saw at the Renaissance paintings and adored, then used in every occasion day and night; being a horse race fan she realized the diamond pattern on the stable lad's jacket and liked its graphic shape and used this pattern first on the Chanel bag and then on many other watch and jewellery designs; named as the forbidden flower, she was appealed by the androgynous and ambiguous white Camellia flower and liked to use its purity and simplicity on her designs; the lucky number 5 as punctuated the most significant events in her life; again a luck charm for her -the 4 leaf clover; the Byzantine and Venetian gilding and stone masonry that she discovered during her trip to Venice in 1920 and which initiated the Coco Chanel and as the last one, black and white colors as the symbol of extreme chic, purity and simplicity.
Chanel Fine Jewellery consists of 8 sub-categories. Here I begin with the High Jewellery collection items which are made of precious stones like diamonds, ruby and emeralds.
