Brief: Harrods recreates the Biennale des Antiquaires in London
BY KAREN AANONSEN
This September, prestigious art and antiquities fair the Paris Biennale rang in its 27th year. Now, to prolong the celebration, famed retailer Harrods is exclusively exhibiting nine of the official Biennale brands within its Fine Jewellery department in London. Graff, Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Chanel, Dior, Bulgari, Boucheron, Chaumet, and Piaget all have haute joaillerie pieces on display — making Harrods the only venue beyond the Parisian Grand Palais to bring the major maisons’ key collections together under one roof. The in-store spectacular runs until October 12.
