During the 1940s, the Maison presented varying interpretations of these golden discs: assembled on a domed ring, gracing the strands of a lavish necklace or mounted on a sparkling bouquet clip. Set with rubies, turquoise or diamonds, the motifs instill elegant volume in ballerinas’ tutus, created by the Maison during the same period. They burst forth in a Coupe or clip and earrings in 1942, subsequently tracing the contours of precious Fourragère as of 1943.

The 1950s saw continued success for this bright and joyous aesthetic. Simple or interwoven bracelets, as well as earrings bedecked with sequins, accented contemporary fashions singular for their grace and femininity.

Van Cleef & Arpels reinterpreted this iconic motif in 2016, as part of the Bouton d’or® jewelry collection. Diamonds, gold, mother-of-pearl and ornamental stones come together in bold creations characterized by elegant interplays of volume and color. Necklaces, fluidly embracing the neckline, mingle with subtly asymmetrical bracelets, earrings that appear to dance with every movement of the body, stunning high-relief rings and generous pendants.
