We give you plenty of reasons to smile this Christmas with Chopard's luxury sustainable gems and 100% ethical gold
Happy Diamonds Planet
Resolutely committed to its journey in sustainable luxury, ethics has been at the foundation of Chopard’s philosophy since it was acquired by the Scheufele family 55 years ago.
In 2013, Caroline Scheufele, artistic director and co-president of the brand, and her team of gemologists and artisans made a more conscious effort to look at the supply chain and work with only socially-responsible and ethical suppliers. By 2018, all its gems have received the “green” standard. And all gold used for producing watches and jewellery is made from 100% ethical gold.
To honour Mother Earth and capture the beauty of nature, Scheufele has created the newly-launched Happy Diamonds Planet, a collection of bangles adorned in ethical gold and set with an array of natural stones. The tips of these bangles stage a pas de deux between a dancing diamond and a colourful bead — made of green agate, blue lapis lazuli, black onyx and pink rhodochrosite or diamond — whose spherical shape inspires the name of the collection: Happy Diamonds Planet. Like all of Chopard’s jewellery, the gold here is also crafted in 100% ethical 18-carat rose or white gold.

Bring on the bling with these timelessly romantic drop earrings paved entirely with scintillating round-cut diamonds set on ethical 18-carat white gold. Meticulously crafted by the Chopard's jeweller-cum-gem setters, the heart-shaped design — a cherished part of its identity — totals 5.4 carats, with the teardrop design set at 3.32 carats. Both are anchored with a corolla of diamonds at the ear lobe, which shimmers with luminous lustre from all angles.
My Happy Hearts
Nothing brings us more joy than cheery heart-shaped jewellery, which can be worn alone or stacked to suit any style or occasion. Available as necklaces, chain bracelets, rings and earrings — based on Chopard’s emblematic heart design — My Happy Hearts collection is exquisitely set with sustainable white diamonds and ethical 18-carat gold. The rings and earrings are also available with a dancing diamond.
Happy Diamonds Joaillerie
Created by Chopard in 1976, the 5.2-carat Happy Diamonds Joaillerie pendant is much more than its unique design of free-swirling round-cut diamonds encased in a see-through heart-shaped pendant. It represents the embodiment of perpetual joie de vivre, denoting a woman’s free spirit and continual reinvention of herself. Outlined with dazzling diamonds, the ethical 18-carat white gold pendant encapsulates seven Happy Diamonds that beat to the tempo of perpetual joie de vivre through the wearer’s movement.
