Unexpectedly avant garde from old guard Hermes, the Centaure collection, designed by Pierre Hardy, features horse hoof designs in materials such as gold, black jade, diamonds, aventurine, and pink opal. We would write more, but these rings have simply taken our breath away.
The Centaure ring comes in rose gold with a black jade or orange aventurine stone ringed with brilliant cut diamonds. Others are entirely paved with diamonds. The Fouet necklace is set with 3,669 diamonds, totaling 36.16 carats.
A closer study reveals that the rings, necklaces, and bracelets also embody the brand’s familiar equestrian motif. The 14-piece collection represents the first foray into fine jewelry for the French luxury-goods company, which began as a saddle maker in the mid-19th century.
The waiting time is five to seven months, and pieces can be adapted to customers’ tastes.
