Further Details
This exceptional bangle is a rare and early example of Jean Schlumberger jewelry. It is a unique jewel, most likely dating to the years between Schlumberger’s early work as a fashion jewelry designer for Elsa Schiaparelli and his established career as a Senior Vice President of Tiffany & Co., where he created one-of-a-kind jewels for the fashionable elite in Europe and the United States. While the all-white diamond and platinum palette sets this bracelet apart from the colorful jewelry he typically designed, his use of movement and organic asymmetry captures both his unique perception and love for nature, making this bracelet an unmistakable Schlumberger creation.
