The miniatures depict the four seasons in a neoclassical style. They were executed using the grisaille technique, an enamelling method in which monochrome paintings, mostly in shades of grey, are created on a white background. Fernand Paillet (1840-1918), a pupil of Carrier-Belleuse, was a master of this technique. Paillet was a respected enamellist who mastered the art of enamel miniatures on enamel and porcelain. His craftsmanship enabled him to produce works that were among the first creative designs of the emerging Art Nouveau style. A historically very important bracelet crafted with the finest artisanship. https://www.van-ham.com/de/auktionen/wie-kaufe-ich/erlaeuterungen-zum-katalog-fine-jewels.html Estimated shipping costs for this lot: Arrangement after the auction. #Boucheron #Jewellery #Historism / Belle Epoque #Bracelet #Red gold #crystal #France
