An illuminated sign at New Bond Street\u00a0marks the spot of De Grisogono\u2019s new flagship. All shiny black with gold lettering, its fa\u00e7ade doesn\u2019t differ greatly from the Swiss jewellers\u2019 other stores but inside tells a different story. A \u2018heritage\u2019 look has been replaced by the modern brush strokes of David Collins Studio.<\/p>\n

\u2018De Grisogono was founded in 1993, so there was no genuine heritage to draw upon,\u2019 explains Lewis Taylor, design director of retail at David Collins Studio. Instead, Taylor turned to the house\u2019s watches and jewellery for inspiration. De Grisogono first found fame with its cloudy and black diamonds; hence, a dark palette of brown faceted marquetry \u00a0and a black marble floor.<\/p>\n

This is designed in a pear drop pattern that references the Briolette cut, first used in the 12th century and a De Grisogono signature. Interlaced bronze detailing refers to the jeweller\u2019s ever-popular \u2018Allegra\u2019 bracelet, and throughout the 130 sq m space, gemstone-bright red, amethyst and green pops up unexpectedly on furniture and upholstery.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Stanza del Tempo\u2019 room is dedicated to mainly men\u2019s watches and David Collins Studio is working with a Bond Street gallery to curate ever-changing artworks within the space.<\/p>\n

A modern and luxurious drawing room, in the form of a \u2018Grand Sala\u2019, hosts royal and loyal customers and their entourages. Fawaz Gruosi, De Grisogono\u2019s larger-than-life founder insists on such a space in all his stores. It\u2019s where 75 per cent of deals are done and where Gruosi likes to settle down on the sofa, light a cigar and discuss high jewellery commissions in all their glittering detail.<\/p>\n
