An important, rare, and highly coveted piece of history by the highly coveted designer Robert Goossens.
Martelé gilt bronze married with Natural Quartz Crystal was one of Goossens's preferred materials in his creations. Designed as massive rose quartz embellished with molten gold overlaid on bronze further enhanced with multi-colored Maison Gripoix poured glass accents.
Coco CHANEL started working with Robert Goossens in 1954 with his interpretations of Byzantine-style jewels to accompany her fashion designs. Goossens combined a play of precious materials with Gripoix glass that served as the basis for CHANEL's costume jewelry designs and pushed the bounds of creativity through this innovative mix of materials. Goossens continued working with Maison CHANEL after the founder's passing and collaborated throughout the 1980s and 1990s with Karl Lagerfeld for his Haute Couture and Pret-a-Porter collections.
This absolutely spectacular pendant/necklace is made from massive rose quartz embellished in the Byzantine style of molten gilt and multi-colored Gripoix poured glass (pate de Verre) accents. It's enrapturing and a work of art.
