The articulated structure of this bracelet draws its design prototype from the iconic “Bandeau” ribbon bracelets created by Van Cleef & Arpels in the 1920s. This structure not only offers excellent fit and wearing comfort but is also particularly suited for incorporating intricate and continuous decorative patterns. The bracelet’s surface, crafted in white and rose gold, outlines the silhouette of the Florence Cathedral, specifically capturing the geometric elements of its iconic marble façade and brick-built dome.
The starry firmament above the cathedral is realized through exquisite gem-setting artistry. Blue and purple sapphires, alongside black spinels, are meticulously arranged to compose a detailed nocturnal sky. Stones of graduated sizes are layered to create depth, punctuated by diamonds cradled in rose gold, star-shaped mounts, resulting in an opulent and poetic tableau.
