Hermès chain jewellery is paradoxically liberating

Hermès lovers are probably familiar with the brand's famous chain motif The French luxury house is renowned for the chain craftsmanship in its fine jewellery, from bracelets to necklaces "At Hermès, the chain is a fundamental motif that draws on its origins as a harness-maker and saddler, and on a long tradition of chain-making know-how," explains brand creative director Pierre Hardy, for whom the chain symbolises Hermès' crafting tradition and bold spirit through its 181-year history.

With Hardy at the helm of the brand's new jewellery launch, it's no surprise that the collection, Enchaînements libres, features the chain motif front and centre It's a collection that is meant to redefine the concept of chain jewellery The collection includes six sub-collections of rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings that convey different messages of the spirit of chain.

These unconventional materials used to craft the luxury chains are also part of Hardy's design ideology to break the boundaries of conventional chains. . Source
