Small wonders at the Paris Biennale
Last week,pink van cleef necklace replica, as the late summer sunshine streamed through the glass domes of Paris's Grand Palais it added extra sparkle to the several hundred jewels and diamonds on display at the Biennale des Antiquaires. And there is plenty to dazzle, as the Biennale is the high point for high jewellery with high price tags. Each jewel on display is a miniature masterpiece, a collector's item, and the diamonds are bigger and better than anywhere else.
But it isn't just about the biggest and the best. Some of the most memorable jewels I saw were in fact quite small, and believe it or not, discreet. Here are the little delights that stuck in my mind.
At Siegelson, the New York house that deals in the crme de la crme of vintage jewels, I got goosebumps as Lee Siegelson fastened on my wrist a 1925 Boucheron bracelet. As fresh as the day it was made, this jaunty little bracelet lightly carries a weighty history. It was exhibited by Boucheron at the ground breaking 1925 Arts Dcoratifs exhibition in Paris,sweet alhambra necklace replica, the defining moment of the art deco movement and from where its name came. Daringly made of osmium, a dense blue white element, the brave symmetry of the black enamel bars contrasts with the randomly dotted berry bright rubies, emeralds and sapphires. From its shagreen and suede embossed case made specially for the exhibition, this bright little messenger captures the zeitgeist of a world recovering from the turmoil of war, shunning the past and looking ahead to a brighter future.
Another jewel that had me sighing is the Van Cleef Arpels dragonfly brooch, in which a light and life like insect hovers as if caught mid flight. Using the "mystery setting",van arpels and cleef necklace fake, a technique patented by the house in the early 1930s that allows stones to be set with no metal at all in sight,van necklace replica, light shines through the pink sapphire wings and tail in a magical way. Art may be imitating nature, but nature may well feel a tad miffed at this glorious creation.
The Collier Bleu de Rve by Graff Diamonds looks innocent enough, but look again and that pretty little blue diamond in a tender dewdrop shape is in fact one of the most valuable diamonds of the show. But I just love how it swings so sweetly from a chain of diamond beads, offset by a perfect emerald. So very valuable but so very wearable, not something that can be said for all investment grade diamonds. This little blue is top of the pops as it weighs 10.47 carats large for a coloured diamond and is Fancy Vivid Blue and Internally Flawless. All of these pieces have probably already been sold, so I am glad I had my five minutes with each of them before they disappear again into the darkness of a high security safe.
