Taking cues from its exceptional yellow diamond, the iconic Soleil d’Or.

As part of its 90th-anniversary celebrations, Maison Fred unveils the Monsieur Fred Golden Light collection – the final chapter of its high jewellery trilogy, inspired by founder Fred Samuel. Showcasing 15 exceptional pieces across five sets, the collection traces the fleeting beauty of dawn over the French Riviera, where the fading veil of night gives way to the soft radiance of golden hour.<o:p></o:p>
For Fred Samuel, light was a lifelong source of fascination. The Riviera, with its Mediterranean coastline and distinctive art of living, held a particularly cherished place in his memories, becoming an important source of inspiration for the maison. Here, light is translated through an expressive palette of coloured stones, capturing the sea’s reflections, the first green ray of dawn, the golden glow of mimosa and, ultimately, the sun at its most radiant.<o:p></o:p>

The journey begins beneath the night sky with Moonlight Reflection, where diamonds and tanzanites evoke the final glimmers of stars upon the Mediterranean. Then Promising Dawn follows with Australian opals and Colombian emeralds, recreating the elusive green flash before sunrise, while Crystalline Joy channels the crystalline waters of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat through the use of richly hued tourmalines.<o:p></o:p>

Meanwhile in Blooming Senses, the golden light of morning awakens the mimosa hills of Grasse. Here yellow sapphires from Sri Lanka and diamonds form radiant floral bouquets, which are brought to life through 890 hours of intricate and meticulous craftsmanship.<o:p></o:p>
At the collection’s zenith is Soleil d’Or Golden Light, centred on Fred’s exceptional 101.57-carat Fancy Intense Yellow diamond. Initially discovered by the jewellery maker in 1977, and rediscovered in 2021, the stone is set for the first time in the Fred’s history within a majestic, transformable high jewellery necklace, accompanied by a matching brooch and ring. More than 1,000 diamonds illuminate the extraordinary necklace, giving the golden hour a truly enduring brilliance.<o:p></o:p>
As the culmination of the Monsieur Fred trilogy, Golden Light is ultimately a celebration of Fred’s enduring love and fascination for coloured stones, with creative audacity and joie de vivre – a glimmering farewell to one chapter, and a promising dawn for the brand’s future.
