  • JACQUES GAUTIER, magnificent old brooch, vintage from the 60s, signed
    By Jacques Gautier
    Located in SAINT-CLOUD, FR
    Magnificent old BROOCH, 60s vintage, by famous light craftsman JACQUES GAUTIER, signed, sold with its box, dimensions 4.8 x 4.8 cm, weight 45 g, very good condition, can be cleaned (on request) to regain its shine. For more than fifty years, this multi-talented artist has mainly dedicated the expression of his art to the beauty of women. Acclaimed in 1955 for his black and white geometries created for Christian Dior or Nina Ricci, he is presented as a Dali avant-garde. In 1966, he translated the Optical Art movement into jewelry. The theme of the square in hammered silver metal encrusted with another square of enamel represents one of the signatures of his style. The “Charme” translucent enamel oval bead necklace, created for Christian Dior, the “Capucine”, “Vénus”, “Marguerite” and “Violetta” models, and the dog collars with tassels, are among its emblematic models.

  • Louis ROUSSELET, Brooch in glass beads, FRANCE 1940, vintage
    By Louis Rousselet
    Located in SAINT-CLOUD, FR
    Sublime old BROOCH, 40s vintage, by famous French designer LOUIS ROUSSELET and Gripoix glass, length 8cm, width 5.5cm, good condition. A child of Ménilmontant and the popular suburbs of Paris, Louis Rousselet was born in 1892 and shared his first class benches with Maurice Chevalier, before becoming an apprentice in a pearl factory at the age of 12. Although very young, his artistic talent and strong personality made him quickly noticed. In 1920, he founded his own workshops to which he gave his name and whose specialty was imitation enamel and pearl glass beads. Coco Chanel, who then wanted to promote costume jewellery, became one of the house's first clients. Then Dior, Lanvin, Schiaparelli, Jacques Fath, Balenciaga, Balmain… For more than 60 years, all the great couturiers came to get their supplies from Rousselet, who imagined for them adornments implementing a unique know-how. The workshops employed up to 800 people. Many music hall and cinema personalities appear in the press covered with Rousselet pearls, such as Ginger Rogers during a stocking organized by Jacques Fath. Mistinguett is the face of the house and regularly strikes a pose in the workshops, surrounded by the workers and the parurier. Between 1920 and until the mid-1960s Louis Rousselet would be one of the most important Parisian fashion designers.

Bien que très jeune, son talent artistique et sa forte personnalité le font rapidement remarquer. En 1920, il fonde ses propres ateliers auxquels il donne son nom et dont la spécialité est l’émail d’imitation et la perle de verre nacrée. Coco Chanel, qui souhaite alors faire la promotion du bijou fantaisie, devient l’une des premières clientes de la maison.
