1970's Coral & Diamond Bracelet by Van cleef and Arpels

A rare creation by Van Cleef & Arpels, circa 1968, this bracelet captures the lyricism of late-century French design. Six ribbed coral stations—each a vivid echo of dusk—are embraced by fluted gold petals, with diamond-set centers glinting like dew. The diamonds, totaling approximately 0.54 carats, lend a restrained brilliance that plays delicately against the warmth of the coral. At once architectural and sensual, this piece carries the quiet authority of its maker, bearing serial number 106774.
