Comment : This atypical piece from Van Cleef & Arpels bears the master stamp of the house Pery & Fils. This jeweller's workshop is closely linked to that of Van Cleef & Arpels. The collaboration started in 1925 with Albert Pery, who at the time frequented the great figures of high jewellery such as Jeanne Toussaint and Suzanne Belperon. The design of this creation is reminiscent of the Ludo Hexagon bracelet, 1939, Van Cleef & Arpels Collection.
