The collection Trinity created in 1924, celebrates its centenary this year. Becoming iconic, it has benefited from numerous versions, in width of rings, appearance of diamonds (their number on the rings has been the subject of different versions), or even entirely paved with diamonds, or even variations of materials such as the occurrence of the Trinity with black ceramic in 2010.
