A beautiful woman pleases the eyes, a good woman pleases the heart, one is a jewel, the other a treasure
While her history with Napoleon Bonaparte was all about passions, Josephine de Beauharnais and Maison Chaumet’s story was about being daring. Between the Empress and the founder Marie-Etienne Nitot, it is a thunderbolt and a stroke of brilliance: the designer becomes the appointed jeweller of the empire and makes the sovereign her muse.

A few decades later, Chaumet pays homage to her with the Josephine Aigrette collection which captures her essence in jewellery form. An obvious tribute to the lady who reinvented her wardrobe every day and constantly revisited the rules of elegance.
The fruit of two centuries of experise and an innovative spirit, the Josephine Aigrette collection continues to break new ground. In its legendary address, at 12 place Vendôme, Chaumet, there is a virtual configurator and a ring bar to showcase all the options and colours. If you missed the event, Chaumet has scheduled am online catch-up session to make your creation in one, two or three rings. White or rose gold? Akoya culture or aquamarine pearls? Peridot or citrine? We accumulate, we change and we dare to offer our hands unique pairings.
