VAN CLEEF ARPELS Brooch "Bird on a branch" in 18K (750 thousandths) yellow gold. The body decorated with a turquoise cabochon surrounded by rubies and round faceted sapphires, the eye set with a small ruby. Signed Van Cleef Arpels and numbered. Hallmark of master. Work of the 1960s / 1970s. P. Gross weight: 13.2 g. Dimensions : 4 x 3 cm approximately. Revolutionizing the codes of high jewelry, Van Cleef Arpels created in 1954 "La Boutique", a line of more accessible jewelry, produced in several copies and with fewer gems. In the midst of the "Trente Glorieuses" era, animal clips appeared, adding a playful touch to the House's creations.
