Who would have guessed a lack of freedom could, ironically, birth works of such unbridled ingenuity? Boucheron's latest high jewellery collection, Carte Blanche - Ailleurs, represents a mental odyssey through unknown terrain, made up of distinct worlds that are unlike our own, yet hauntingly familiar.
In response to lockdowns curtailing movement and autonomy, Boucheron Creative Director Claire Choisne sought to channel that yearning for travel into the Maison's high jewellery launch for this season. Named after the French word meaning "elsewhere," the transportive collection conveys through its various parures a deep longing to connect with the natural world and far-flung locales, where landscapes are pristine and unaltered. So strong was this inspiration that Ailleurs began not with jewellery designs or available gemstones, but with moodboards that communicate the atmosphere, emotions and colours dominating each of five environments that make up this imaginary universe.
