No luxury enthusiast is a stranger to Chopard’s signature Happy Diamonds watches, the timepiece that features loose diamonds running across the dial. Over the years Chopard has taken the Happy Diamonds concept to jewelry including pendants, earrings and rings, but now, for the first time, the company has debuted a Happy Diamonds handbag.

The bag in question is a crimson leather purse that uses quilting details to mimic the facets of a well-cut diamond. The stitches appear to fan out in a sunray pattern, emerging from the clasp which features a circular home for a few dazzling gems to skitter inside. The rose gold clasp will instantly remind you of a round watch face, but the gems inside are not diamonds, instead, the company chose five pink opals which perfectly complement the rose gold hardware and the cherry color of the purse.

The purse was part of a collection unveiled at Baselworld that included other jewelry items and watches. It’s interesting to see the brand take a signature design element of theirs and apply it to different products, but I have to say that at LL, Happy Diamonds watches remain the favorites.
