Gucci's Horsebit, or when the bit takes on several variations

This same contrast of shadow and light permeates the jewelry itself. On one hand, the polished yellow gold of a sleek bangle, its two ends meeting at the bit's buckle, of an open ring that follows its outline, or of a necklace on which the bits link one after the other, link by link. On the other hand, diamonds come to illuminate the motif with their clarity. They are found set on a bangle, a ring, a chain bracelet, and on two pendants—one delicate, the other more pronounced. The motif also graces the ears, in snug studs or in drop earrings that stack two diamond-set bits one beneath the other. While the vocabulary remains equestrian, the pieces that make up the collection rely on several registers that echo one another. The flexibility of the chains contrasts with the rigidity of the cuff, available in two sizes and two versions—set or unset. The pavé setting stands in opposition to the smooth curve of polished gold, the closed buckle to the open line. Even the rings, whose two branches never meet, extend the open bit. As for the pendant necklaces, they opt for either yellow or white gold, while the rest of the selection chooses yellow gold only. Gucci thus remains faithful to its repertoire: the bit has adorned its accessories since the 1950s, and its bracelets and watches since the 1970s. The new Horsebit season concludes with a timepiece featuring a silver dial watch worn on a steel chain bracelet, thus offering another way to bring the bit to the wrist. /public-objects/c9059f8a-865d-469a-823c-5ae01209f907-3022b6d5-b4a3-44eb-abcd-36b1c5e2d3d0-Horsebit_1.webp Image sélectionnée
