Bird on a Rock was designed in 1965 by legendary designer Jean Schlumberger for his lifelong friend, philanthropist, Bunny Mellon. It was at her estate in Virginia, amongst her bucolic gardens and artful interiors, that Schlumberger found inspiration to create many of his masterpieces, among them, the Bird on a Rock brooch featuring a yellow and white diamond bird perched on a cabochon lapis lazuli, pictured here. More than 60 years later, the story continues with a new collection inspired by the original, designed by Chief Artistic Officer Nathalie Verdeille and featured on House ambassador Zhang Ziyi.
