VAN CLEEF & ARPELS Pelouse Diamond Emerald Boule Ring in 18k Yellow Gold,
A bejeweled retro-style Boule Ring by Van Cleef & Arpels exhibiting a design emblematic of the Maison: the domed voluminous forms of ‘Pelouse’ (in some books this look is also referred to as ‘Lawn’) within the iconic shape of the Boule Ring. Faceted gemstones in a continuous bombé shape are brilliantly mounted in yellow gold prongs. Alternating geometric stripes are painted with white diamonds throughout, offering breaks of color within the dimensional green emeralds. In addition, the convex nature and varied green of the gemstones capture light capriciously. This further enhances the shade and depth of color within this Van Cleef & Arpels Pelouse Diamond Emerald Boule Ring. This innovative aestheticism of the Pelouse combined with its pioneering techniques set the stage for many other fine jewelers at the time. We especially love the convergence of form with the decorative artful design – as if the Pointillism painting style was embodied in a jewel.
Circa 1980s.
