Chanel unveiled its new high jewelry collection, "Reach For The Stars," in Kyoto, featuring comet, wing, and lion motifs. The collection includes 109 pieces, with the wing motif making its debut as a key theme. The collection's highlights include the Wings of Chanel necklace with a 19.55-carat Padparadscha sapphire and the Five Wings brooches, a collaboration with a Kyoto-based lacquer artisan.
