The world-renowned luxury jewelry and watchmaking Maison, Van Cleef & Arpels, has brought the sparkling magic of its Perlée collection to Kuala Lumpur. From August 9 to 24, 2025, visitors can experience the beautifully immersive pop-up exhibition at Pavilion KL, Level 2 Centre Court. This stunning showcase is a collaboration with acclaimed French artist Arthur Hoffner, designed to offer a vibrant and interactive exploration of Van Cleef & Arpels’ iconic jewelry.
The Perlée collection, celebrated for its playful elegance and golden bead motif, takes center stage in this dynamic exhibition. Known for its delicate designs and artistic interpretations, the collection is brought to life with interactive elements that allow visitors to engage with the art and craftsmanship of Van Cleef & Arpels in new and exciting ways.
A Journey of Playful Elegance
Arthur Hoffner, a long-time friend of the Maison since 2019, has crafted a whimsical narrative within the Perlée universe, transforming the pop-up space into an interactive playground. The collection’s signature golden beads, which have been a hallmark of the brand since the 1920s, are showcased alongside whimsical installations like a Ferris Wheel, Hourglass, and Fountain game. These structures, combined with the movement and light of the golden beads, create a sense of floating joy that reflects the playful spirit of the collection.
“The Perlée collection embodies movement, playfulness, and lightness,” says Hoffner. “I’ve designed a space where the pearl seems to float within a suspended trajectory, creating an atmosphere where full and empty spaces interact and invite visitors into a lively, immersive journey.”
Timeless Designs with a Contemporary Twist
The pop-up exhibition not only highlights the latest Perlée creations but also features classic pieces from Van Cleef & Arpels’ extensive heritage. Visitors will be able to admire the exquisite craftsmanship of Perlée signature bracelets, rings, watches, and pendants, all featuring golden beads paired with diamonds and colorful gemstones like rose quartz and carnelian. These pieces evoke timeless elegance and contemporary creativity, making the exhibition a must-see for both jewelry enthusiasts and collectors.
Exclusive Experience at Pavilion KL
Set against the backdrop of Pavilion KL’s sophisticated shopping environment, the exhibition is designed to be more than just a display of luxury jewelry; it offers an interactive and sensory experience. Visitors can explore the playful “Balance Maze”, “OXO”, and “Connect 4” games, while admiring the intricate beauty of the Perlée pieces. These interactive elements, combined with the stunning visual artistry of Hoffner’s installations, ensure that the exhibition is as engaging as it is beautiful.
The exhibition runs from August 9 to 24, 2025, and is open to all who wish to witness the magic of golden beads and exquisite craftsmanship. Whether you are an admirer of fine jewelry, a fan of interactive art, or simply curious about the world of Van Cleef & Arpels, this pop-up exhibition offers something for everyone.
