Van Cleef & Arpels has launched an immersive Perlée collection pop-up at Bar Centro in The Shops at Crystals in Las Vegas. The 750-square-foot installation, created with French artist Arthur Hoffner, runs through November 22.
Why it matters
The pop-up marks a departure for the fine jewelry brand, which is taking its experience outside its boutiques to reach consumers. The brand says the location was chosen to capture a Las Vegas vibe.
The pop-up spans 750 square feet and remains open through November 22 at Bar Centro. Visitors can access an online Perlée game by QR code, while the source does not provide attendance or sales figures.
