Persée Necklace: Floating Diamonds From Nawal Laoui's House

Persée Necklace: Floating Diamonds From Nawal Laoui's House

A Persée necklace makes a diamond look caught in motion, with stones that appear suspended or barely held. I go through the floating necklaces, diamond earrings, rings and bracelets from the Paris house Nawal Laoui founded in 2017.

Floating Diamond Necklaces

Persée's necklaces put the house's central idea in plain view: diamonds that appear suspended, moving, or barely held. Founder Nawal Laoui launched the Parisian house in 2017 after a world tour and a formative encounter with Japanese jewelry techniques. The pierced-diamond method leaves the stone unusually exposed, so the effect is more about light than ornament. I went deeper on a related idea in A Dior Necklace Is The House Signature At Close Range.

Diamond At The Ear

The earrings make that lightness especially visible. Hoops, single earrings, and drops frame the face without building a heavy cluster, which is why the pieces work for day as easily as for evening. Persée's founder has cited art, travel, and her Moroccan roots as influences, and the collection carries that sense of movement.

Rings With Light

The rings keep the architecture quiet while letting the stone lead. Wave and alliance shapes give the diamond a little structure, but the house's signature still comes from the stone appearing to float rather than sit inside a crowded setting. Choose one with a clean band when you want the detail to read from a distance.

Bracelets And Anklets

Bracelets and anklets bring the same idea lower on the body, where a small flash can feel almost accidental. The collection includes fine chains, hand-inspired forms, and diamond details that reward close attention. Wear one beside a simple watch or let it remain the only glint at the wrist or ankle.

Our honest take

Persée is for someone who wants fine jewelry to feel alive, not overly formal. The house's pieces are expensive and delicate, so they are not the answer for rough daily wear, but they are unusually easy to layer once you respect their scale. If you take one thing away, buy for the way the diamond moves when you do, not only for its still photograph.
