‘The Comtesse de Béarn lived lavishly and enjoyed the company of renowned artists’
The young esthete Martine de Béhague (1869 - 1939) became Comtesse de Béarn after marrying René de Galard de Béarn in 1890. She inherited an immense fortune and built the Hotel of Béhague, rue Saint-Dominique in Paris, which hosted the most elegant salons of the time.
The Comtesse de Béarn lived lavishly and enjoyed the company of renowned artists such as the painter Paul Helleu or the writer Paul Valéry, whom she was the muse of.
She travelled the world on her large yacht Le Nirvana (illustrated right) and built an important collection of antiquities, ancient manuscripts and oriental works of art. Martine de Béhague also acquired the finest Old Masters' paintings by Francesco Guardi, Antoine Watteau and Titian amongst others.
Her Paris mansion was sold in 1939 and since became the Romanian Embassy to France. Martine de Béhague was said to have personally acquired natural pearls throughout her life, one by one, to form the present necklace.
