JULIA ROBERTS HAS been adorned with Chopard’s most exquisite gemstones on and off the red carpet. But the award-winning actress probably wouldn’t have imagined that one day, she would be helping Chopard create one of its most monumental high-jewellery collections.
The Chopard x Julia Roberts high-jewellery capsule collection is as advertised: a meeting of kindred spirits that led to a one-off assortment of exceptional baubles. Roberts, who has been Chopard’s global ambassador since 2021, had been close friends with its co-president, Caroline Scheufele, for many years. And when the company acquired the massive 6,225-carat rough emerald named Insofu in 2018, Scheufele was determined to craft creations that would befit the remarkable stone—with the help of a few friends.
The most expert emerald cutters from India were enlisted. Scheufele herself pushed her own creativity to the limits. And Roberts, with her deep appreciation for Chopard’s jewellery and inspired friendship, was asked to join the project.
