Van Cleef & Arpels: The Art & Science of Gems

This 2014 Carpe Koi bracelet watch, made of gold, Mandarin garnets, sapphires, tourmalines, spinels and diamonds is reproduced from The Art & Science of Gems, Editions Xavier Barral's deluxe tribute to the opulent jewelry and dazzling history of Van Cleef & Arpels. Paging through this beautifully produced book, even those who have no previous interest in jewelry design will be unable to tear themselves away from the detail, the ingenuity and the flat-out luxury of the bracelets, pins, earrings, necklaces, tiaras, watches, rings, vanity cases, smoking sets, clips, bottles and assorted glimmering treasures that Van Cleef & Arpels' designers have concocted for the international collector set over the last 110 years.
