Gabrielle Chanel is a Leo, and<br />

like all Leos, she is proud of it.<br />

Proud as a diamond, an orange<br />

topaz, a yellow beryllium and<br />

gold may be. If Coco said she<br />

felt like a Leo “like a lion, I show<br />

my claws to prevent from getting<br />

hurt. But, believe me, I suffer<br />

more if I am scratched than<br />

when I scratch,” and will use the<br />

image for buttons or details for<br />

handbags, the lion became part<br />

of Chanel jewellery only in 2012.<br />

This time, the “Esprit Lion”<br />

opens a new chapter and presents<br />

fifty-three pieces that make<br />

up a complete set: necklaces,<br />

brooches, earrings, rings,<br />

bracelets, watches all inspired<br />

by wooden, marble or bronze<br />

lions decorating the apartment of<br />

Mademoiselle at 31 rue Cambon.<br />

In open bracelets or multi-thread<br />

sautoir, in front or profile, chained<br />

or free, this lion expresses the<br />

savoir-faire of master artisans at<br />

the Chanel atelier at the legendary<br />

Place Vendôme number 18.<br />
