The Legacy Collection - Rare vintage jewels, handpicked to be treasured for generations.
 
A true collector’s jewel, this Legacy Collection piece is a masterful convergence of French haute couture artistry and Mughal-inspired opulence. Designed in the 1980s by a French atelier in the style of Gripoix glass jewelry, this exceptional necklace embodies enduring craftsmanship, high fashion nostalgia, and cultural fusion — making it a rare investment-worthy vintage heirloom.
 
The necklace is a solid, heavy, and meticulously cast creation, featuring a robust gold-plated framework with a rich, anti-tarnish finish that has stood the test of time. Each link is carefully textured to reflect light beautifully, while the oversized pendant — shaped in a symmetrical cross formation — is evocative of the iconic Chanel Gripoix cross brooches and earrings, delivering strong echoes of 1980s Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent runway glam.
The deep jewel tones of emerald green and ruby red poured glass cabochons (in the signature Gripoix style) are hand-set in bold gold frames, exuding regal Mughal energy with a couture twist. The construction is unmistakably high-quality — this is not costume jewelry, but an heirloom-grade collectible designed to be worn, cherished, and passed down.
 
Whether styled with a silk saree or brocade lehenga for a grand Indian wedding, or paired with a structured blazer or evening gown for a Western soirée, this piece speaks volumes. It’s the ultimate fusion jewel — an expression of global fashion, legacy heritage, and timeless statement style.
