From Telegraph—Seismic changes rarely occur in the jewellery world. Material values are so high and the risks so great that houses are crippled by conservatism, averse to trying anything different that may lose clients or affect revenue. Knowing this, it’s easy to see why, for decades, the ‘safe’ white diamond reigned supreme, with emeralds, rubies and sapphires getting the occasional look-in. So the appointment in 1998 of Victoire de Castellane to the newly created position of creative director of fine jewellery at Dior was risky.
