Bruno Guidi 1970 Retro Modernist Earrings In 18Kt Gold With 4.45 Ctw In Emeralds

About the Item

Retro modernist earrings with emeralds designed by Bruno Guidi. Gorgeous three dimensional pieces of wearable art, created in Brazil by the designer and goldsmith Bruno Guidi, back in the 1970. This pair of earrings has been crafted as an sculpture with the Brazilian concretism parameters in mind. They were crafted in solid yellow gold of 18 karats, with textured and polished finishes. The design of these earrings is very architectural and artistic. The artist creates some openings of geometric shapes, which coincide with the elements that stand out and support the gems. Which creates an illusion in three dimensions of voids and solids. Fitted with posts (Removables) for pierced ears and comfortable hinged backs for fastening clip. Emeralds: Mount in four-prongs settings, with an arrangement of 6 emerald faceted cut of different sizes, carved from Brazilian natural green emeralds, with 4.45 carats. Birthstone: For the month of May. Weight: 19.40 Grams, (12.44 Dwt). Measurements: 30 mm by 21.5 mm (1.18 x 0.85 Inches). Hallmarks: Stamped with the maker's mark, the mark for the assay of the gold and signed, "GB .750 T20". The artist Bruno Guidi He was a Brazilian artist, sculptor and jeweler of Italian descent. He settled in Brazil after the Post War and was a collaborator of the architect Roberto Burle Marx. Bruno Guidi was the lead designer and chief goldsmith of the acclaimed Brazilian jeweler Haroldo Burle Marx for 35 years. He collaborated with the designs of the jeweler Haroldo Burle Marx and his atelier was responsible for the manufacture of all Burle Marx jewelry pieces offered Brazil and in the Washington DC gallery at the Watergate Hotel. He was a master engraver responsible for much of the fine silk-like gold textures synonymous with the workshop His jeweler's mark in Brazil was number 761 and each piece was created entirely by hand starting from a piece of gold without the aid of any molds. Our ring is marked GB, for Guidi Bruno. The Concrete Art The term was coined in 1930 by Theo Van Doesburg in his manifesto "Concrete Art", written in response to the formation of the association "Cercle et Carré". The document was signed by Hélion, Carlsund, Tutundjian and Wantz. When Van Doesburg died in 1931, his ideas were taken up at the end of the 1930s by two Swiss artists, Max Bill and Jean Arp, who published several works and held important exhibitions of painting, sculpture and applied arts. The denomination "concrete" or "concretist" is assumed in Switzerland in the post-war period by artists working in the current of geometric abstraction. The relationship between abstraction and concrete art is evident in the exhibition at the René Drouin Gallery in Paris in 1945, since it is the first important exhibition of abstract art, and its title was precisely “Art Concret”. In this art all kinds of illusionism are excluded; the work and the elements of which it consists are presented strictly for what they are, without virtual qualities. Materials do not simulate anything other than themselves. The slogan “real materials, real space” is often used in relation to this art form. Collateral: They are accompanied by a presentation jewelry box. Condition: The overall condition of this pair is excellent. Beside the little normal wear, there is no damage to the gold. The emeralds are secured in the settings. These earrings has been carefully inspected to guarantee the condition and authenticity. INVENTORY REF: E070123MINN/.4663
