With exquisite craftsmanship and breathtaking sparkle, the jewellery at Cannes always stuns – and there’s one piece in particular that has dazzled onlookers on several occasions.
Created by Chopard, a necklace has graced the necks of four different celebrities at the film festival over the years – including Jane Fonda and Georgina Rodriquez.
Leading diamond experts at Steven Stone have taken a close look at the piece that could well be the most worn necklace in Cannes history.
Which celebrities have worn the necklace?
Jane Fonda: Actress and activist, Jane Fonda, wore the complimented her hot pink gown with the necklace when she attended the world premiere of ‘Inside Llewyn Davies’ at Cannes Film Festival 2013.
Bella Thorne: Bella Thorne graced the Cannes Film Festival red carpet on 22nd May 2024, for the premiere of ‘Motel Destino’. The American actress accesorised her strapless black gown with the eye catching necklace.
Georgina Rodriguez: When Georgina Rodriguez attended the 2023 amFAR Gala – a fundraiser held yearly in Cannes – she was wearing a black midi dress with sequins, alongside the necklace.
aespa’s Karina: When aespa’s Karina attended the 76th Cannes Film Festival in 2023, she stunned in a black frilly ball grown that ensured that the necklace stood out as much as possible.
Rihanna: This one’s not at Cannes, but a high profile celebrity like Rihanna is worth mentioning. When the superstar hosted and performed at the Clara Lionel Foundation Diamond Ball in 2014, she was pretty in pink as she sported a Zac Posen off-the-shoulder rose satin gown alongside the necklace.

The piece boasts a huge 123.24 carat pear cut rubellite, offset by 65.24 carats of diamonds set in platinum. Apart from the exceptionally rare and costly Paraiba, Rubellites are the most valuable among all tourmaline gemstones.
The necklace is reportedly worth $1.2 million—a staggering price tag that’s unsurprising given its extravagance and its engraving in Cannes history.”
