Driven by a resolutely positive vision of the world, the Maison accompanies the precious moments of fulfilled men and women for whom watches and jewellery are talismans celebrating lasting Joie de Vivre.In harmony with this vision, Chopard acts through the prism of three fundamental elements: craftsmanship, ensured by the work of passionate master artisans; abundant and generous creativity; and ethics.The Scheufele family, which has been guiding the Maison from generation to generation, is firmly convinced that contemporary luxury must necessarily be responsible.In 2013, these convictions led co-presidents Caroline and Karl-Friedrich Scheufele to commit the Maison to its ‘Journey to Sustainable Luxury’. Today, Chopard uses 100% ethical gold for the production of its gold watches and jewellery, as well as manufacturing its own Lucent Steel – with a recycling rate of at least 80% – for its steel timepieces.More than 50 professions are mastered at Chopard’s three production sites, where particular attention is paid to in-house training, passing on savoir-faire and perpetuating artistic crafts.

Devji Aurum, one of the oldest fabricators of exquisite jewellery in the world, has announced its collaboration with renowned Welsh fashion designer, Jayne Pierson, and go-to-market advisory firm, nuForj, via the Gwenllian Collection.This is the first time in Devji Aurum’s over 70-year history that it has formed a design collaboration from outside the region and with the calibre of such a renowned designer.The Gwenllian Collection is a limited edition and rare set of collars, cuffs, earrings and rings. The items are exquisitely crafted in Welsh gold, diamonds, precious lapis, and malachite and feature Welsh triskelion motifs and Celtic knots, each signed by Pierson, serialised, and intended to be worn as an amulet to protect the wearer.Devji Aurum CEO Mahesh Devji said Pierson’s evocatively Welsh designs meshed with his company’s own legacy.“We believe jewellery should not simply be adornments – they should be time capsules that tell stories from the soul. Indeed, Jayne’s designs tell timeless stories of Welsh ages past that also speak to us in modern times, reflecting the spiritual heart of Welsh culture. They are truly fantastic,” he said.The Gwenllian Collection builds on Pierson’s reputation for avant-garde design inspired by Celtic mythology, Welsh heritage, and a blending of history and the future. It was named for Gwenllian ferch Gruffydd, a 12th-century Welsh warrior princess, the only known medieval era woman known to have led a Welsh army into battle.“In working with Mahesh’s team, I really loved the emotional intensity of the collaboration, both parties approaching it without any preconceived notions of where it might lead us.“I am really excited by the collision of cultures represented by this collection – Welsh, Arabian and Indian. The end result are pieces that are incredibly meaningful and people just become overwhelmed with emotion simply trying them on,” Pierson said.nuForj managing principal Rudy N Vogel said: “Knowing the uncommon vision and craftsmanship of Mahesh and the distinctive creativity and novel design of Jayne, I knew from the start that the outcome of this utterly unique collaboration would result in something very special that is the Gwenllian collection.”The Gwenllian Collection is available through Devji Aurum.
