Valentine’s Day is a short month away and if you are still minus one fabulous present for that special lady of your life, it is time to get a little jittery. Getting a present for a woman may be a tricky affair, but a beautiful piece of jewellery is usually a foolproof option. French jeweller Mauboussin, with its impressive 184 years heritage, is just the place to start your hunt.

Based in Vendome Place, Paris, Mauboussin is considered to be one of the ‘Grands Cinq’, the five greatest jewellers in the world. Ever innovative and progressive, the brand is constantly evolving and its designs often reflect the zeitgeist. For instance, its jewellery leaned towards excess, disproportion and asymmetry in the volatile 1960s and catered to the ultra-individualist in the 1980s. Artfully balancing an illustrious history with an eye to the future, its ability to meld fine jewellery-making with bold creativity has won it a loyal following, which includes Hollywood stars and even royalty.

One of Mauboussin’s most popular and celebrated lines is the Chance of Love, a more affordable collection of jewellery that is nonetheless wrought with exquisite workmanship. The collection’s unique 4-leaf clover detail is paved with diamonds and surrounds a larger solitaire. Despite its intricate design, it is still understated enough for everyday wear. With prices starting at just SGD1590, this is the perfect starter piece to inaugurate your foray into the world of Mauboussin. The Ma Princesse d’Amour ring (SGD1990) is another ravishing piece that is reasonably priced.

When you are in the Mauboussin store at Mandarin Gallery, do take the time to take in your beautiful surroundings. The Singapore boutique is the first in Asia to unveil the brand’s new identity. The space seeks to enhance sensory experience and evokes a playful, exploratory atmosphere. Using treasure boxes and accessory bars as more modern ways of displaying jewellery, the store’s crowning glory is its ceiling, where two artistic chandeliers and miles of tulle create a dazzling effect.
