For over a century, Boucheron has drawn inspiration from nature, but never has it been as raw, untamed, and profoundly immersive as in the latest Histoire de Style 2025 collection, “Untamed Nature.” A bold evolution of the artistic heritage of the Maison, this high jewelry collection revisits the fascination with the wild of founder Frédéric Boucheron, reinterpreted through the visionary lens of Creative Director Claire Choisne.
From the very beginning, Frédéric Boucheron saw nature differently; while his contemporaries favored grand florals and regal animals, he found poetry in the overlooked—ivy twisting along stone, thistles swaying in the wind, and insects with their delicate wings and intricate forms. This attention to detail was not just aesthetic; it was a pursuit of realism, guided by scientific studies and a deep reverence for the natural world.

Fast forward to today, and Choisne breathes new life into this legacy, not by merely replicating nature, but by making it a living, wearable force. The 28-piece collection blurs the boundary between the human form and its surroundings, offering transformable designs that adapt to the wearer, much like nature itself adapts to the environment.
The collection unfolds as a journey through the botanical and entomological wonders of Boucheron’s archives, where every piece tells a story of resilience, beauty, and movement.

Closing the collection, Boucheron revisits an emblematic archive motif—the Bumblebee. Crafted in white gold, diamonds, onyx, and mother-of-pearl, with rock crystal wings so thin they appear poised for flight, this jewel epitomizes the Maison’s ability to capture nature’s dynamism in precious materials.
With “Untamed Nature,” Boucheron crafts an experience, an encounter with the wilderness that is both intimate and audacious. In an age where high jewelry often seeks perfection, Boucheron reminds us that true beauty lies in nature’s unrestrained spirit—wild, free, and forever evolving.
