French luxury brand Louis Vuitton has unveiled its highly anticipated 2026 high jewelry exhibition, "Mythica," in Taiwan. The exclusive event showcases over 400 exquisite pieces, including high jewelry, loose stones, and luxury watches, with a total value exceeding NT$7 billion (approximately $215 million USD).
The "Mythica" collection, making its debut in Taiwan, is centered around mythological narratives, aiming to depict the journey of female exploration, transformation, and triumph. The exhibition unfolds through 10 distinct chapters, each highlighting the brand's exceptional craftsmanship. A standout piece is the "Mesmerism" necklace, featuring a magnificent 17.19-carat Colombian emerald, complemented by LV Monogram Flower Cut diamonds and over 500 other diamonds.
Another highlight is the "Victory" collection, which boldly pairs rare large pink and green diamonds with white diamonds, forming a laurel-like silhouette. The "Fortune" series radiates with yellow diamonds and LV Monogram Star Cut diamonds, symbolizing abundance and hope, while the "Whisper" collection uses deep royal blue sapphires to evoke a serene night sky. The "Sirius" collection presents a vibrant array of colored gemstones, including aquamarine, tanzanite, and tourmaline, arranged to capture the essence of starlight and cosmic light.

Beyond jewelry, the exhibition also features Louis Vuitton's artistic watchmaking, including the Escale Twin Zone and Daylight art watches, and the limited-edition Louis Vuitton Camionnette table clock, inspired by the brand's iconic truck and adorned with over a thousand diamonds. South Korean actress Shin Min-a attended the event, expressing her delight at visiting Taiwan and her admiration for the "Phenomenal" emerald collection, which she felt resonated with her personal style.
The "Mythica" high jewelry exhibition is open by appointment only until July 19.
She said that she had privately visited Taiwan many years ago and had a good impression at the time, and she was very happy to visit again this time. She specifically wore jewelry from the "Phenomenal" emerald series, describing the work as elegant with a distinct personality, and since she likes green herself, it is the series that best represents her.
