BRILLIANT BAGUETTE

Icy Blue Sapphires

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. Brilliant Baguette is the most lavish expression of its high jewelry spirit. Brilliant Baguette is entirely covered in gems, from dial to case. Jacob & Co. exclusively selected the baguette cut. In order to recreate the smoothest surface, Jacob & Co. only works with the invisible setting technique. No prongs, no metal appears that would break the continuous array of gems. White diamonds. Emeralds. Rubies. Blue, yellow, pink or orange sapphires. Tsavorites. A rainbow color arrangement. Brilliant Baguette 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 Brilliant Baguette is Jacob & Co.'s creativity expressed in abundant color and gems.

38-mm, white gold case. Invisibly-set with 159 baguette-cut icy-blue sapphires. Dial invisibly-set with 152 baguette-cut icy blue sapphires. Self-winding movement.

The rounded case of Brilliant Brilliant Baguette 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.

THE INVISIBLE SETTING

In invisible, all gems are laid out without any visible connection between them and the metal. It requires a unique set of skills that Jacob & Co. has become a specialist of. The baguette-cut gem’s long side is grooved. On the metal end (dial or case), a master jeweler creates vertical anchoring beams, in the shape of a T. The grooves are snapped in place on the T-shaped structure. The gem is set tight, extremely close to its neighbors while absolutely no metal shows.

Brilliant Baguette instantly achieves elegance, refinement and ultimate luxury. 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 Baguette.
