Egypt and its mythology have long served as inspiration for many jewelers, but Hermès, true to its originality, has taken the idea to a whole new level.
The Hermès Egyptian jewelry looks like the work of designer Pierre Hardy, who has already repeatedly collaborated with the Parisian jewelry house on other collections. The jewels of the new Hermès Niloticus collection are named after a great ancient kingdom and its most famous amphibious reptile – and the analogy is not accidental, because the jewels of the new line are frighteningly similar to crocodile skin. Hardy managed to copy the scales of the most dangerous predator inhabiting the waters of the Nile with disconcerting accuracy.

The jewelry has a strangely alluring beauty similar to the mysterious appeal of the crocodile itself basking in the golden rays of the sun reflecting off its moist scales. Hermès Niloticus marvelously combines hidden menace and natural beauty.
