Human Being: Light necklace by Boucheron.

From the 2026 Carte Blanche collection.

'A light that springs from the depths of the stones.

To bring forth this light, over 1,500 carats of morganites of the exact same color intensity first had to be assembled. Yet it was the mounting that posed the main challenge for Boucheron’s artisans: to avoid any pressure being exerted on the morganites, they fitted and screwed the prongs around each stone.

Adding to the complexity, the design called for the diamonds to be directly set into the morganites; this entailed hollowing out the morganites to accommodate an invisible metal framework, into which the diamonds were then set.
