Louis Vuitton’s latest foray into the world of fine jewelry is the “LV Diamonds” collection. Designed by Francesca Amfitheatrof, the house’s Artistic Director of Watches and Jewelry, the new collection highlights features a selection of quality diamonds, honoring house codes and the precious moments that we hold dear through a series of rings, earrings, and pendants.

The star of the show, so to speak, is the LV Monogram Star diamond, taking on the form of the iconic four-pointed monogram with 53 facets in a feat of jewelry making that honors the symbol first created by Georges-Louis Vuitton in the late 1890s. Alongside these marvelous gems is a selection of classic but dazzling brilliant cut stones—both of which are seen in settings of platinum and rose gold, some crusted with tiny pavé stones. Every diamond in the collection is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity logged through the Aurora Blockchain Consortium, which includes a transparency report detailing its origins and life cycle up until the point of purchase.
Bearing the signature Louis Vuitton aesthetic—timeless with a touch of uniquity—Amfitheatrof’s designs call upon the work of past house designers, like the Art Deco “V” of Gaston-Louis Vuitton’s suitcases and Georges Vuitton’s Damier check, among other influences. These details shine through in highlights like the V-shaped rings, unisex bands with sparkling diamond checkerboard patterns (perfect for the unassumingly stylish bride or groom), star-shaped diamond studs and delicate drop earrings, and our favorite dainty platinum chains holding a single glistening LV Monogram Star.
