Chanel is celebrating the Chanel No 5 eau de parfum 100th anniversary with a special perfume-inspired jewelry collection that pays homage to various elements of the product. The 123-piece haute jewelry collection, dubbed the No5 Collection, was brought to life by the Chanel Jewelry Creation Studio and it takes inspiration from the stopper, the bottle, the number and the flowers used in the scent.
The very distinctive stopper inspired designs like the Diamond Stopper Ring in yellow gold, platinum and onyx, as well as brooches and bracelets in the collection. While some designs are more subtle than others, the 55.55 Necklace stands out for including the iconic shape of the Chanel perfume bottle in diamonds. This special piece will be kept at the Chanel heritage house.
