Francesca Amfitheatrof, after a long and highly esteemed career in jewellery, was appointed Artistic Director for Louis Vuitton’s jewellery and watches in 2018. Over the years, she has created many highly acclaimed Haute Joaillerie collections for the well-known French fashion house. Among the many collections launched by the designer are LV Volt, BBlossom, Empreinte and Pure V.
Created in 2004, among many others, the Empreinte Collection stands out for its versatility and a style inspired by Louis Vuitton’s emblematic codes. Today, a new chapter in this collection is being inaugurated. Francesca Amfitheatrof has in fact created new creations with an extremely contemporary design.
SOME PIECES FROM THE NEW EMPREINTE JEWELLERY COLLECTION BY FRANCESCA AMFITHEATROF FOR LOUIS VUITTON
Among the most interesting pieces of jewellery in the collection are intertwined rings and bracelets, an excellent representation of the bond between people who love each other. This weave also takes us back to the leather buckles used to fasten Louis Vuitton’s iconic luggage. Then how can we not love the long necklace that transforms into a multi-strand bracelet or overlapping necklaces?
This collection of jewellery made in 18-carat yellow, white or pink gold was created without identifying itself in any genre. Perfect for Her and for Him, they are timeless jewellery. The detail is in the engraving of the LV initials and perforated Monogram flowers. As much as the inspiration is always directed to such a representative past, the Empreinte jewellery collection is decidedly bold, with bold lines, innovative and maintaining the values of the Maison seems to evoke the Spirit of Travel.
