Julia Roberts Teams Up with Chopard for a Stunning Emerald Collection.
"Chopard x Julia Roberts" Debuts Emerald Jewels from the Legendary 6,225-carat "Insofu Emerald."
Chopard, the renowned luxury jewelry brand, has recently unveiled a one-of-a-kind high jewelry line in collaboration with its global ambassador, the iconic actress Julia Roberts. This exceptional collection, named 'Chopard x Julia Roberts,' is a tribute to the extraordinary 'Insofu Emerald,' a rare gem weighing 6,225 carats and discovered over a decade ago in Zambia's Kagem mine, operated by Gemfields.
The collaboration between Roberts and Chopard has given birth to the first jewels from the monumental Insofu Emerald, which Chopard acquired in its uncut form after its discovery in 2010. This creative venture, a fusion of Roberts' vision and Caroline Scheufele's artistic direction, is a significant milestone in the jewelry world.
Chopard secured the Insofu Emerald in its uncut form during a 2018 auction in Singapore, captivated by its dynamic green hues and extraordinary purity. With a vision to maintain transparency throughout the gem's journey, from cutting to the final jewel, Chopard engaged with leading emerald experts for its cutting in Geneva and Jaipur, ensuring the emerald's essence was perfectly captured.
