Le Damier
Louis Vuitton Collection
Louis Vuitton’s Damier has long adorned timeless pieces like bags, trunks, and luggage. Today, the Maison announced the launch of a fine jewelry line that reimagines the iconic pattern. Rather than differentiating by color, this checkerboard is formed by alternating squares of diamond with open planes of gold, adding a luxurious flair to the recognizable print.
Le Damier de Louis Vuitton is an entirely unisex modern redesign, debuting 12 pieces in total that seek to transcend the confines of both gender and time. Francesca Amfitheatrof, Artistic Director for Watches and Jewelry calls Le Damier de Louis Vuitton, “the creation of a new era, a modern collection designed to last forever.” The pieces are designed to be worn like a second skin, relaying authenticity and agelessness from the inside out. The collection not only maintains the luxury brand’s Damier motif, but pioneers soon-to-be recognizable features like the geometric center line that splits the curve on each of the fine jewelry pieces.
