About the Item

This rare and incredible Mercedes Robirosa Paris cuff bracelet features a silver-plated metal cuff shape with a heavy looped chains design. The chains that form this spectacular bracelet are attached on one side to a crossbar. The chains are rigid and form the skeleton of the bracelet, and the ends of the chains are flexible and constitute the fringe charms. The bracelet is unsigned, but the chain design was one of Robirosa's favorite patterns, which she used in many jewelry pieces. Please note that this bracelet is heavy (1.1 lb or 538 g) and may not be suitable for women with small wrists or bones. The bracelet is in good condition, with minor wear on the metal, but it doesn't significantly affect its overall appearance. Dimensions: The inside width is 2.44 in x 2 in (6.2 x 5.1 cm), the width is 4.07 in wide (10.3 cm), the opening is 1.50 in wide (3.8 cm), the charms length is 5.13 in long (13 cm), and the inner circumference is 7.32 in long (18.5 cm). The bracelet will best fit an average Small wrist with a circumference of 6.5 to 6.88 inches (16.5 to 17 cm). Note: Mercedes Robirosa, of Argentine origin, was one of Yves Saint Laurent's favorite models in the late 1960s and 1970s. After participating in the catwalks of famous couture houses, Mercedes Robirosa started a career in jewelry design. Between 1982 and 1986, Karl Lagerfeld hired her to design and manage the Chanel couture and ready-to-wear accessories collection. In 1987, Mercedes Robirosa launched her jewelry line. Mercedes Robirosa's sense of fashion and design is evident in her jewelry, featuring an earthy elegance with a playful sense of whimsy.

Jean Després 1960 Paris Artistic Cuff Bracelet In .800 Silver With Chained Links
By Jean Despres
Located in Miami, FL
Sculptural cuff designed by Jean Després (1886-1980). Exceptional collector's piece, created in Paris France by the artist goldsmith Jean Després, back in the 1960. This cuff bracelet has been crafted with retro modernist patterns in solid .800/.999 silver with high polished finish and centering upon a sculpted chain-links band. Weight: 65.90 Grams, (42.25 Dwt.). Size: 7 Inches, (18 Cm) can be expanded or closed to fit size. Measurements: The width is 30 mm (1.18 Inches). Hallmarks: Stamped with French marks; the maker's mark JP inside a lozange cartouche and signed inside, "J. DESPRES". Jean Després He was born in 1889 in Souvigny, Burgundy, from glass blower parents, Jean Després starts his apprenticeship with a Parisian goldsmith, friend of the family, in 1905. First an industrial drawer for the military aviation during World War I, he took over his parents’ shop in 1920 and launched his goldsmith and jeweler workshop. He revealed himself to be an innovative creator with a unique way to work metals, and with new drawn shapes never seen before. He participated to his first show in 1926 at the Salon des Indépendants. Many shows and exhibitions then followed, such as the Salon d’Automne, the Salon of Decorative artists, and the Tuileries Salon. Jean Després chooses massive shapes rather than the classical goldsmith ornaments and avoids the use of precious gemstones in his jewel collection. His jewel production is defined by necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings where metals are combined with ivory, lacquer, ebony, onyx and sharkskin. His goldsmith pieces are inspired by the aviation aesthetic, crafted using hammered metals, and ample, generous and modern shapes. In the 1940’s, Jean Després is nominated President of the Goldsmith Syndicate, after receiving the Legion d'honneur, in 1938. The artist’s works will be collected in France and worldwide, even after his death in 1980. (Maison Rapin...
