Pal Kepenyes Lion Steel and Bronze Sculpture

About the Item

Circa 1970. We offer this Pal Kepenyes Lion Steel and Bronze Sculpture eyes made in semi-precious stone. Pal Kepenyes was a Hungarian artist and jewelry designer known for his unique and innovative designs. He was born in Budapest in 1926 and began his career as a painter and sculptor. In the 1950s, he moved to Paris and began to experiment with jewelry design. Kepenyes's jewelry is characterized by its sculptural qualities and use of unusual materials such as gold, silver, bronze, and semi-precious stones. His designs often feature organic shapes and textures, and he was particularly interested in incorporating natural elements such as shells, bones, and stones into his work. Kepenyes's jewelry has been exhibited in museums and galleries around the world, and his pieces are highly sought after by collectors. His work has been described as "wearable sculpture," and his unique designs continue to inspire and influence contemporary jewelry makers today.
