La Valliere
feature
The house of Beach Blanket Babylon is launching "La Valliere", a meticulously put-together, truly unique collection of vintage costume jewellery from the world's most glamorous designers, including Christian Dior and Chanel.
Quirky and eclectic, La Valliere is named after the mistress of Louis XVI, renowned for her exquisite jewellery collection. For eight years Mademoiselle de la Valliere held her position as the King's favourite until presumably she could no longer fit any more fabulous jewellery around her person.
Following in the Bourgeois tradition, the House of Beach Blanket has dedicated exceptional antique cabinets to showcase the collection so that customers can admire the pieces and, for the ultimate thrill, purchase items as well. Add some dazzle to your evening by viewing and perhaps buying this touch of old school glamour.
They make perfect gifts, with each piece being carefully wrapped, boxed and presented in a couture bag embellished with the magnificent House of Beach Blanket crest. Prices range from £70 - £1500.
