Stylish and elegant are the clips by Van Cleef & Arpels. I fell in love with the ballerina clip, I would love to have it! It is just amazing, the design, the rocks and the finishing. It is designed in 1947 but timeless!
An exhibition of 54 pieces of Van Cleef & Arpels' private collection is on display in the Galerie du Patrimoine, Paris, entitled “The clip, a stylish and elegant piece.”
The items are accompanied by documents from the archives, celebrate Van Cleef & Arpels’ beloved clip.
A jewelry piece in its own right, it embodies the Maison’s vision of femininity, timeless style and refinement. The exhibition brings together a multitude of motifs, shapes and color combinations typical of the years from 1920 to 2000, reflecting the privileged position this form of jewelry holds in the history of Van Cleef & Arpels. Ears of wheat, leaves, chrysanthemums, thistles, feathers and flames, perfect circles, lace bows, foxes, lions and playful fledglings, as well as charming ballerinas and fairies, may be worn on a hat, belt, pinned to the lapel of a jacket, dress, shoulder or on a neckline as desired.
"It is a poetic journey that revisits the vocabulary of the fauna and flora." So plan your visit to admire these 54 vintage pieces!
