Petit Trianon: A Regal Escape in Jewellery Form

In its latest artistic endeavour, Les Néréides unveils the Petit Trianon collection — a poetic homage to the hidden sanctuary of Marie-Antoinette within the Château de Versailles. Moving beyond the grand opulence of court life, this collection draws inspiration from the Queen’s cherished retreat: a space of freedom, authenticity, and verdant tranquillity.

A Garden of Jewelled Stories

The Petit Trianon was once the most celebrated garden in Europe, boasting over 4,000 botanical varieties. This heritage flourishes in three distinct sets of jewellery, each echoing a legacy of royal flora and classical elegance. Golden lilies, celestial asters, and sculptural acanthus leaves blend in intricate gold-plated forms, accented by hand-applied enamel and cultured pearls, creating wearable tributes to nature and nobility.

Crafted in French Excellence

True to Les Néréides’ Parisian roots, every piece is conceived with an unmatched level of craftsmanship. Designed in the heart of Paris and brought to life with time-honoured techniques, each jewel is hand-enamelled and gold-plated to radiate enduring beauty. This collection is not just adornment — it is history, reimagined through French artistry.

Symbolism of Sun and Garden

Balancing the bold iconography of Louis XIV, the Sun King, with the soft grace of Versailles’ gardens, the collection resonates with a profound duality. Elements such as the sun medallion, lilies, and acanthus leaves convey power and serenity, embodying Marie-Antoinette’s longing for authenticity and self-expression within nature’s embrace.
