In the Couture room, view pieces of gold lace embellished with rubies, inspired by the fashion of Paris.
Over at the Ballerinas And Fairies section, admire delicate brooches featuring Spanish dancers that capture dance movements in diamonds and emeralds.
One of the quirkier highlights under the theme Precious Objects, which showcases special orders made by the maison over the years, is a gold cage commissioned by an unnamed "Maharaja" in the 1930s for his pet frog.
Ms Catherine Cariou, heritage director of Van Cleef & Arpels, who was in Singapore this week (April 21)for the media preview of the exhibition, says the eccentric leader wanted a small ladder and pool in the cage for the frog.
Made of yellow gold, malachite, coral, onyx and rubies, the cage has since been transformed into a birdcage which hosts two lovebirds made of rose quartz.
In the Influences section, pieces inspired by various cultures and places, including China, Persia, Egypt, Mexico and Japan, fill the room.
One such piece is an Egyptianinspired bracelet made in 1924, which features hieroglyphic motifs such as scarabs and lotus flowers set with emeralds, sapphires, rubies, paved diamonds and onyx stones.
Mr Bos says: "I hope visitors will enjoy and learn and be enchanted. For those who have never seen a jewellery exhibition, I hope they will come out of it having discovered a fascinating and emotional new category."
