  • A proposito di opere artista

    Van Cleef & Arpels è un'azienda francese che produce gioielli, orologi e profumi. Van Cleef & Arpels è stata fondata nel 1896 a Parigi da Alfred Van Cleef e dal suo parente Salomon Arpels. Nel 1906, nonostante Arpels fosse già morto, Van Cleef aprì la sua prima boutique al 22 di Place Vendome, di fronte all'Hotel Ritz. Tutti e tre i figli di Arpels, di nome Charles, Juilien e Louis, si unirono all'azienda a nome del loro defunto padre. Ben presto, l'azienda iniziò ad aprire boutique in una serie di località come Deauville, Vichy, Le Touchet, Nizza e Monte-Carlo. Nel 1925 Van Cleef & Arpels vinse il primo premio all'Esposizione Internazionale delle Arti Moderne Industriali e Decorative, per un progetto per un braccialetto di rose bianche e rosse, eseguito in una combinazione di rubini e diamanti. La figlia di Van Cleef, Renee Puissant, nata Rachel, ha assunto la direzione artistica della compagnia. Ha mantenuto stretti legami con il disegnatore René Sim Lacaze per oltre vent'anni. L'azienda è stata la prima ad aprire boutique internazionali in Giappone e in Cina. Nel 1999, Compagnie Financère Richemont S.A. ha acquisito l'azienda. I pezzi di Van Cleef & Arpels si riconoscono attraverso l'uso di fiori, animali e fate. Sono stati indossati da icone di stile come Farah Diba, Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, la duchessa di Windsor e Jordan Paterra.
