Ancient Egyptians venerated turquoise, working the vivid gem into jewelry and scarabs. (King Tut’s burial mask was even decorated with the stone.) These days, turquoise is enjoying a renaissance among jewelry designers, and Van Cleef & Arpels is leading the charge. With its 12-piece Perles d’été high jewelry collection, the French brand showcases the motif in a fresh—and ultraluxe—fashion. Part of the house’s legendary Perlée line, it highlights Arizona-sourced turquoise set against gold beads, evoking sunny days under an azure sky.
