Las Vegas shoppers and jewelry fans can now walk into a Van Cleef & Arpels Perlée pop-up at Bar Centro in The Shops at Crystals, open through November 22.

Why it matters

The brand is stepping out of its boutiques to meet customers, a first for the fine jewelry house, and it chose a Las Vegas setting to do it. The installation draws on the Perlée collection, which has roots in the late 1940s and debuted in 2008.

The 750-square-foot installation runs through November 22, and the Perlée collection traces to the late 1940s and debuted in 2008. Visitor numbers and the exact schedule of on-site master jewelers were not disclosed.

The details

Van Cleef & Arpels created the pop-up with French craftsman Arthur Hoffner, who has worked with the brand since 2018, and it features geometric totems he designed that connect with animated spheres. Visitors can take a selfie at a station on arrival, walk among Perlée pieces and longtime VCA favorites in salon and library-style spaces, and scan a QR code to play an online game where they trace Hoffner's shapes with a VCA-style bead. VCA master jewelers will be on-site on select days to demonstrate brand techniques.

Timeline

  1. Late 1940s: Perlée origins trace to beads in the Couscous collection.

  2. 1963: VCA began combining beads with colored gemstones for Twist creations.

  3. 2008: VCA debuted the Perlée collection.

  4. November 22, 2026: The Las Vegas pop-up installation closes.

Beyond the Strip

The Perlée pop-up picks up a thread VCA first pulled in 1963, when it began combining beads with colored gemstones for Twist creations. Setting the installation in Las Vegas, rather than only in its boutiques, marks a departure from the brand's usual retail footprint.

If you're in town before November 22, stop by Bar Centro at The Shops at Crystals to see the Perlée display and take the selfie-station photo. Check the venue for the days master jewelers will be demonstrating techniques.

The takeaway

The pop-up is open through November 22 at Bar Centro in The Shops at Crystals, so there is a short window to see it. Scan the QR code on-site to try the Perlée bead-tracing game.
