Van Cleef & Arpels Romeo & Juliet brooches

Meet the bejewelled star-crossed lovers, blue lapis lazuli and sapphires for Romeo and pink sapphires and rubies, orange sapphires and garnets for Juliet. Note how the bouquet that Romeo is offering Juliet is mauve, a mix of blue and red symbolising the union of the two houses. I love how their heads are facetted diamonds and there is so much attention to detail in the pleats and embroidery on their clothes.
