Les Blés De Chanel, meaning “Chanel’s Wheat” in English, is an attention grabbing and exciting new line of jewelry. The original designer of the fashion house, Chanel’s own thoughts of the wheat plant was that it was a symbol of luck and prosperity. She was known throughout her life to display images of the grain in her own apartment. The new run of jewelry continues the spirit of the rural tradition of the designer’s life and updates it for modern trends. 

The collection is currently on display at the fashion house’s French location on the Rue Cambon. The pieces consist of cut-outs in the shape of grain and diamond settings. The pieces feature a unique take on combining two seemingly different things- jewelry and grain- that will catch the eye of any jewelry appraisal expert. The interest of this line of jewelry is sure to stay steady over time.

Along with the new line of jewelry is street art by the artist Gad Weil. The artist planted a rural island in the center of Paris which is made up of over 1 million stalks of wheat. The plants were placed in the Place Vendôme and will be relocated after the initial run.
