In 2017, Jacob & Co. created a new ladies' collection that looked like no other. Round, without lugs, with a strap directly attached to the case, Brilliant was designed to be versatile, precious and to embrace the entire range of gems Jacob & Co. loves.
The central part of Brilliant's mother-of-pearl dial is a medallion set with diamonds with a diamond bezel. The kite-cut is extremely rare, exclusive and a Jacob & Co. signature. From that canvas, Jacob & Co. has designed dozens of uniquely colored variations of Brilliant, creating its largest, most diverse collection. Brilliant is Jacob & Co.'s ultimate expression of femininity.
From a creative concept to design inspiration. To the first stroke of a pencil through hundreds of iterations. A timepiece like no other comes to life. Brilliant is the most essential expression of Jacob & Co.'s creativity in jewelry timepieces.

The rounded case of Brilliant is a three-dimensional creation. Shaped like a pebble, it possesses a great ergonomy and offers the best canvas for the kind of creativity Jacob & Co. is famous for. The rounded edges of the case provide Brilliant with its namesake property : brilliance. When its metal stands alone, thorough polishing gives it light and life. When our gem-setters get a hold of it, it becomes a large field of expression of their expertise.
Achieving such an impeccable result requires an extensive development process. It starts at the selection of gems, goes on with their cutting, and ends in the setting itself. At each one of those steps, Jacob & Co.'s expertise is mobilized at its finest. For Jacob & Co., work is at its best when the work doesn't show.

GEMS & MOTHER-OF-PEARL DIAL
Brilliant is one of the few timepieces in the Jacob & Co. catalog to include mother-of-pearl. The organic material is rich and shimmering, providing a perfect counterpoint to an extensive gem-setting. The central medallion of diamonds and bezel are tone on tone, while the kite-cut hour markers provide life and color.

Brilliant instantly achieves elegance, refinement and serves any purpose. It can either be worn as an everyday-wear timepiece or an evening wear one. It matches a pair of cashmere sweatpants, a pantsuit or a dramatic evening gown with equal grace. Brilliance is at ease with every moment of life, and so is Brilliant.
