Set to launch next January 13th, the collection revisits a design sketched in 2012 by Patrice Legueréau, who was head of Chanel’s jewelry studio for more than twenty years. The quilted pattern is materialized in some of the pieces, such as the bracelet or the ring.

 

 

 

 

Coco Crush has become Chanel’s best-selling fine jewelry line, with prices ranging from €1,500 for an earring to €60,000 for a necklace.

 

Grammy-nominated singer Gracie Abrams joins the brand, which has previously collaborated with other artists, such as Jennie Kim of Blackpink, as part of its strategy to position this jewelry line for decades to come.

 

Chanel launched an ambitious project in Madrid in the middle of last year, with which it doubled the retail space of its flagship store located at number 16 Ortega y Gasset street, in the Salamanca district, an area that includes much of Serrano street, but also Lagasca, Velázquez, Ayala and Claudio Coello, and is known as the Golden Mile. The brand also acquired two additional spaces located on the second floor of the same building where it inaugurated its new offices, with a surface area of around 340 square meters.
