Briony Raymond unveils modular Carousel collection in gold and gemstones
18-karat yellow gold gives Briony Raymond's Carousel its frame, setting hard stones from coral to turquoise into puzzle-like pieces priced from $10,800 to $100,750.
Briony Raymond put her Carousel collection live on Briony Raymond New York’s site with 18-karat yellow gold serving as the structural spine for a mix of diamonds and hard stones, turning coral, turquoise, lapis, malachite, onyx, tiger’s eye, mother-of-pearl and more into sculptural, puzzle-like jewelry. The line spans earrings, bracelets, rings, necklaces, demi-fringe necklaces and collars, with the gold acting less like decoration than architecture, holding the color together in pieces that feel built rather than merely set.
That construction is what makes Carousel read as a gold story, not just a stone story. The collection’s many stone variations repeat across multiple forms, so one material can appear as an earring, then reappear as a bracelet, necklace or collar, giving the assortment a modular logic that wealthy buyers often want: recognizable color, but with the flexibility to build a wardrobe around it. Prices make the positioning clear. Some earrings start at $10,800, while collars such as the Carousel Coral & Diamond Collar and Carousel Turquoise & Diamond Collar are listed at $100,750. A Carousel Mother of Pearl & Diamond Collar is priced at $92,925, placing the collection firmly in high jewelry territory.
Raymond founded her namesake atelier in 2015 after nearly a decade at Van Cleef & Arpels, and that background shows in the way Carousel balances polish with a more playful, assembled feel. Her Madison Avenue atelier opened in expanded form in 2023, and appointments there run Monday through Friday, reinforcing the salon-style experience that has become central to the brand. Briony Raymond New York also curates vintage jewelry from Van Cleef & Arpels, Cartier and Bulgari, which helps explain why the house’s own designs sit comfortably beside the classics it sells.
The client list around Raymond has only sharpened the collection’s commercial pull. Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Lewis Hamilton, Sarah Jessica Parker, Bella Hadid, Karlie Kloss and Katy Perry are among the names linked to her work, and Carousel extends that celebrity-ready vocabulary into a more distinctly modular form. It keeps the old-house reference, the color and the polish, but gives them a fresh system built around hard stones and yellow gold that can be worn, collected and reconfigured.
