The story

Created in France circa 1950, this brooch brings together the warmth of 18K yellow gold and the cool refinement of platinum in a composition defined by movement and contrast. Its fan-shaped design opens into a series of radiating forms, crossed by a sweeping arc of old mine-cut diamonds totaling approximately 0.60 carat. The diamonds, graded I color and SI1 clarity, introduce a measured sparkle against the polished gold, emphasizing the brooch’s flowing geometry.

The design reflects the sculptural approach to gold jewelry that flourished in the mid-twentieth century, when bold silhouettes and expressive metalwork became defining elements of French jewelry design.

A golden fan caught in motion, its unfolding lines held together by a slender ribbon of light.
