Splendid Trianon Baroque Pearl and Citrine Mammoth Tusk Cuff Bracelet 18k yellow gold, the bracelet mounted with baroque pearls and round-cut citrines weighing approximately 2.50 carats in total, stamped with the Trianon mark. w. 1-1/2", inside circumference 5-3/4", total weight 79.9 grams Notes: After Seaman Schepps’ death in 1972, his daughter Patricia Schepps Vaill continued her father’s legacy at the helm of the venerable firm producing successful, forward-looking designs. Vaill also developed her own unique style aimed at a younger audience to expand the firm’s client base. After twenty years as the steward to one of the great American jewelry houses, Vaill retired and sold the company to fellow jewelers Anthony Hopenhajm, and his partner, Jay Baume. Hopenhajm and Baume were a natural fit as their brand Trianon was already partnering with Seaman Schepps on cufflinks made from organic materials. The two firms also shared similar aesthetics. As Hopenhajm said, “We started to do jewelry that was different from the way people do jewelry. There was synergy between us and Seaman Schepps.” Trianon became the flagship name and continued to use rich and exotic materials as Seaman Schepps had done for decades. Rare woods, mammoth tusk, semi-precious stones set in gold, baroque pearls and other treasures would find their way into the jewelry designs. Hopenhajm and Baume took great pride in the one-of-a-kind nature of their pieces as all of the materials were taken from nature and possessed unique qualities that gave personality to each piece. Much like Seaman Schepps, Trianon rose to prominence amongst jewelry collectors, the social elite and lovers of avant-garde design. Trianon jewelry has been worn by countless politicians, celebrities and socialites over the past 30 years.
