Van Cleef & Arpels Unveils a New Boutique at South Coast Plaza

Van Cleef & Arpels is looking more beautiful than ever. The over-100-year-old luxury jeweler recently opened its much larger, reimagined boutique in Costa Mesa, California, with two large display rooms, five salons, five specially curated libraries, and a bridal salon, creating an intimate setting for guests to discover the brand. 

Notably, design elements throughout the store include Art Deco influences as well as more modern elements, such as the paper sculptures created by French-born artist Marianne Guély. As one of the most magnificent boutiques on the West Coast, the new Van Cleef & Arpels is a spectacular sight to behold—that's even before you start browsing the jewelry.
