Hermès
Sculptural, fluid, and deeply connected to the heritage of Hermès, the “Fouet” necklace is a striking expression of the maison’s equestrian tradition interpreted through High Jewelry. Designed under the creative direction of Pierre Hardy, the necklace takes inspiration from a riding whip, fouet in French, transforming this emblematic object into an elegant, highly articulated jewel.
Crafted in platinum and 18K white gold, the necklace is set throughout with approximately 36.16 carats of baguette and brilliant-cut diamonds. Its intricate articulated construction gives the piece remarkable flexibility, allowing the diamond-set form to curve naturally around the neck and continue into a fluid lariat-style drop. The contrasting geometry of baguette and brilliant-cut diamonds creates a refined play of texture and light while emphasizing the braided, whip-like construction.
Measuring approximately 17.7 inches (450 mm) in length, the necklace is designed to be worn with an effortless sense of movement, its distinctive knotted silhouette bringing together the worlds of fine jewelry and Hermès’ celebrated equestrian heritage.
A sophisticated example of contemporary Hermès High Jewelry, the “Fouet” combines technical ingenuity, exceptional diamond setting, and an unmistakable sense of design.
