The collection, which will be released over two seasons in 2023, will feature a variety of themes embodying marine life. The summer collection will be released in seven distinctive themes, including "Shell," "Coral," "Jellyfish," "Pisces," "Starfish," "Sea Star," and "Star Urchin." The "Shell" theme explores the three-dimensionality of objects born from the ocean. The pendant, set with a detachable diamond brooch, features a stunning black opal weighing over 21 carats, creating a striking presence. The "Coral" theme features tanzanite, sapphire, and yellow diamonds, showcasing vibrant colors and a unique design. The "Jellyfish" theme brooch, inspired by the graceful movement of a jellyfish's tentacles, emits a fantastical glow.

The "Pisces" theme explores Jean Schlumberger's fascination with the ocean, a limitless and mysterious world, through the theme of Pisces. Featuring exceptional untreated Padparadscha and Umba sapphires and diamonds, this theme features warm hues that complement the refreshing blue of the sea. The "Star Urchin" theme is a study in symmetry and form, evoking the drama of the underwater world with tanzanite and hand-carved chalcedony pieces that mimic the spiky appearance of a sea urchin.
The "Starfish" theme, a silhouette symbolizing the ocean, features opals, aquamarines, tourmalines, and beryl accented with diamonds, creating a daring design resembling a creature entangled among rock formations. A series of lavishly diamond-encrusted pieces uniquely capture this marine life. Additionally, the "Sea Star" theme features custom-cut mother-of-pearl starfish entangled in a coral-inspired motif, evoking the ocean's fascinating ecosystem. Exceptional padparadscha and umba sapphires, mother-of-pearl, and carnelian bring the "Sea Star" theme to life.
