Dragonflies and Butterflies Collection
Van Cleef & Arpels captures nature in full flight with the Dragonflies and Butterflies Collection. These delicate creatures shine with precious stones and lacquer, pausing in their graceful, gentle flight to spread their quiet elegance mingled with subtle panache. There is something inherently magical – and feminine -- about dragonflies and butterflies. The Dragonflies and Butterflies Collection pays tribute to their gentle strength.

Nature in fine jewelry
Van Cleef & Arpels has always been inspired by the vital force and intense delicacy of nature. In the Dragonflies and Butterflies Collection, sapphires, diamonds and exquisite Japanese lacquers crystallise the world’s fascination with these sparkling creatures, capturing their inquisitive and shimmering flight in clips and pendants.

Lucky motifs
A butterfly signifies a free spirit and especially metamorphosis. In the Dragonflies and Butterflies Collection, this universal feminine symbol glows in diamonds, very appropriate mother of pearl, and subtle intricate designs etched in Japanese lacquer. A favourite motif during the early twentieth century – when Van Cleef & Arpels was first founded – the dragonfly is associated with good luck, peace and prosperity as well as a sense of self. Here it’s captured in glittering precious stones.
