Torsade de Chaumet transformable necklace

White gold, rubies, diamonds 085132

Torsade de Chaumet transformable necklace in white gold, set with 12 cushion-cut rubies totaling 16.72 carats, round rubies, and baguette-cut, square-cut and brilliant-cut diamonds.

The spectacular Torsade de Chaumet transformable sautoir is adorned with splendid Mozambique rubies, punctuating this dazzling creation with touches of intense red. The culmination of two hundred years of Chaumet's virtuosity, this unique piece uses a multitude of setting techniques, creating effects of movement and light that enhance the necklace. The upper part of the sautoir can be detached, creating a bracelet that can be paired with the necklace.

The first jeweler to open up shop on the legendary Place Vendôme in 1812, Chaumet pays tribute to the Maison's origins with the Torsade de Chaumet collection. Inspired by the movement of the frieze wrapping around the Vendôme column, these virtuoso creations offer a modern and fresh revisiting of the twist—torsade in French—in an ode to movement and life.
