  • Catalogue Essay

    Wide bracelets of similar oriental motifs, geometric designs and materials were made by maisons such as Cartier and Lacloche Frères during the Art Deco period. Jewels of this caliber must be appreciated in its details – the caliber-cut rubies and onyx, the cabochon rubies set at various heights, and the millegrain finishing. What makes this bracelet truly one-of-a-kind is the panels sections that vary in shapes, on which quadrilateral, and hexagonal shapes set with diamonds form a captivating backdrop for the cherry blossoms. The craftsmanship and finesse displayed could not be more emphasized.
