Important and scarce vintage Coco Chanel "camellia" pate de verre statement necklace. This iconic necklace is comprised of gilt metal dore and turquoise camellia flowers comprised out of "pate de verre" "poured glass" by Maison Gripoix which gradually cascades down and is adorned by large green leaves. Maison Gripoix is one of the oldest and most reputable workshops of bijoux de haute couture, one of their first and most reputable clients being Coco Chanel, who started working with Mdme. Gripoix in the 1920s continued until the late 1960s. Often uses camellias in her designs, as it was the first bouquet she received from Boy Capel, her lover. The necklace is in pristine condition and is large in scale which is unusual for most Chanel jewelry, it dates to the early 1980s - signed on the back. About Chanel (Designer) The first Chanel shop was opened in 1910 in Paris on rue Cambon by the young milliner Gabrielle Chanel (1883–1971), who had picked up the nickname “Coco” while working as a club singer. The boutique drew the attention of the Parisian fashion elite who popularized her wide-brimmed Chanel Modes hats. Soon she added a sportswear store in the Normandy resort town of Deauville, where Coco set the tone for her defining sense of style — traditionally masculine garments reimagined for feminine shapes, made from simple jersey fabric. Effortless and elegant, her designs promoted comfort and grace in women’s wear that had been dominated in the previous century by complicated layers of fabric and cumbersome corsets. She followed this success with a couture house, which opened in 1915 in Biarritz. Over the next six decades, Coco Chanel would become a pivotal designer of both fashionable casual wear and Paris haute couture as well as an icon and arbiter of 20th-century style with her bob haircut and pearls. However, Chanel was not born into a life of glamour. Following the death of her mother, her father left her in an orphanage where she lived until the age of 18. It was there that she learned to sew as well as appreciate the classic pairing of black and white as worn by the nuns. In 1926, she introduced her first little black dress, reclaiming a color that had once been reserved for mourning and working-class women. That same decade, she debuted her perfume, Chanel No. 5, as well as the Chanel suit with a collarless jacket and fitted skirt, inspired by the boxy lines of men’s clothing and employing a sporty tweed. Chanel closed her fashion operations during World War II, then returned to the industry in 1954 to design for the functional needs of modern women. Structure and wearability endured in all of Chanel’s clothing and accessories, like the quilted leather 2.55 handbag introduced in 1955 with its gold-chain shoulder strap that freed up a woman’s hands. The 1957 two-tone slingback...
