Blossom or Le Petit Cactus
Boodles · Mellerio
Blossom
Small cherry blossoms in white, rose or yellow gold, their petals beaded with diamonds like dew on a spring morning.
Le Petit Cactus
The flower of the vanilla cactus, which opens for one night a year, made as a small burst of rose gold stamens around a single stone.
Two short-lived flowers, both kept small. Le Petit Cactus, drawn in 2019 by Laure-Isabelle Mellerio, follows the vanilla cactus that opens for one night a year and that Redouté painted for Marie-Antoinette, the house's first royal client; each motif is a burst of rose-gold stamens around one stone. Boodles' Blossom, three years older, sets diamonds on the petals of a cherry flower, the sakura whose season lasts barely a week or two.
