The glistening Apple Ring, ripe for the picking!

Talk about Juicy Couture! Here’s a look at the adorable Apple Ring, one of our favorite pieces from Chopard‘s annual Red Carpet trove of haute joaillerie. Delightfully quirky and meticulously wrought by the best artisans from the famed Swiss jeweller’s atelier, the Apple Ring is a highlight from the 65-piece collection designed by Chopard’s co-president and artistic director, Caroline Scheufele.

Here’s a breakdown of what goes into this one-off wonder: 773 tsavorites weighing precisely 55.47 carats and 238 brown diamonds weighing 1.704 carats, set in 56.45g of white gold; with an assembly time of about 250 hours of expert craft.
