For designs that make a bold and unforgettable statement, keen eyes need only turn to Boucheron’s latest high jewelry creations. As part of the label’s storied Serpent Bohème collection, the new pieces play with the line’s iconic drop motif, adding the serpent head-like accent to to-die-for necklaces and bracelets. Playing with extremes, the arm candy is at turns oversized or entirely set with pavé diamonds, while the necklaces — available in white gold or yellow gold — feature a thickened chain and a lengthened pendant. The stunning additions come 47 years after the first Serpent Bohème collection launched. Some might say it was well worth the wait.
