AN IVORY, ONYX AND GOLD RING AND EARCLIPS SUITE, BY BOUCHERON, CIRCA 1970 The ivory mounted ring centred by a carved onyx boule to beaded gold shoulders, with earclips en suite, mounted in 18K gold, signed Boucheron, ring, French assay marks, ring size G, earclips length 2.5cm ** Please note that this lot contains ivory and is subject to CITES regulations when exporting outside of the EU. The United States Government has banned the import of ivory into the USA. One hundred and sixty years ago, the son of a couturier named Frédéric Boucheron opened his first jewellery boutique in the Galerie de Valois in Paris. So successful was he here that by 1893, he left the arcades of the Palais Royal to open a new street level shop at No.26 Place Vendôme, becoming the first contemporary jewellery in the place now synonymous with high jewellery and fashion. This location not only attracted high society clientele but it also had space above the shop for Boucherons workshop. From here, Boucherons grandiose trail-blazing designs paved the way for future generations of designers. Using not only fine gemstones but also exotic materials such as lapis lazuli, coral, hematite, onyx, hemp and snakewood, Boucheron created imaginative majestic designs driven by a passion for abstraction. The Maison continues to this day to honour its founders ideals, constantly striving to push the boundaries of high jewellery with new materials and innovative craftsmanship. The legendary name of Boucheron maintains its position within the high jewellery hall of fame.
