How Fred Redefines Modern Elegance With Chance Infinie

Many great things transpired in 2016. La La Land danced into theatres and our hearts, Nintendo had us all roaming strange streets for Pokémon Go, and Beyoncé spilled the tea with Lemonade. Over at the luxury corner, the launch of FRED’s Chance Infinie was among the noteworthy events that made the headlines. The collection’s sideways figure eight symbol, projecting the emblem of infinity, the lemniscate, swiftly found its spot in the fine jewellery canon.

Conceptualised to evoke the notion of luck and hope, Chance Infinie has since positioned itself as the modern-day lucky charm, endorsed by the likes of Namtan Tipnaree and Jin of BTS. It is not just rhetoric either. The collection is anchored in a story that started with the house’s founder himself. Fred Samuel, born in the eighth month of 1908, came from a family of gem dealers. Seizing that opportunity had led to the inception of the brand we all know today.

This year, FRED opens a new chapter with new interpretations of the design, moving in step with the present without ever letting go of the past. The numeral motif is now juxtaposed against a ribbon with delicately untied ends. The result is nine ultra-feminine novelties, whose curves and roundness are as stylish as they are sultry, trailed with pavé of brilliant-cut diamonds. But wait, there’s more: each piece features a pear diamond as the centre stone.

The six fine jewellery creations are an exercise in everyday luxury. Crafted in pink and white gold, the set comprising rings, necklaces, and earrings merges versatility with symbolism. Each iteration is designed in the signature shape that can be worn as the number eight, representing balance and harmony, or rotated to form the infinity sign, symbolising endless love and continuity. A practical advantage should you need to switch things up at a moment’s notice.

For those seeking something more elevated, the three high jewellery versions of Chance Infinie offer exceptional craftsmanship, exquisite gemstones, and designs that double as works of art. The collar necklace, for starters, conjures a spectacular display of brilliance with its sturdy silhouette and dazzling diamond pavé. It captures the light with every movement. The accompanying pieces—a ring and earrings—echo the same sentiment.
