Cartier Lapis Lazuli And Diamond "Paris Nouvelle Vague" Bombé Ring Cartier Jewellery from Moira Fine Jewellery
£60,000.00
Description
A Cartier "Paris Nouvelle Vague" lapis and diamond ring, designed as a fancy bombé style cluster, set with a multitude of polished, torpedo-shaped pieces of lapis lazuli, each with a round brilliant-cut diamond, rub-over set into the end, mounted in 18ct yellow gold. Signed Cartier, stamped with the number "54 883088".
The "Paris Nouvelle Vague" collection was launched in 1999 and was aimed at the more youthful end of the market, to encourage them to be returning clients. The designs were inspired by the spirit of Paris, its architecture, the curves and waves of the Seine, its romance, elegance and vivacity. New techniques and methods such as CAD and 3D printing encouraged more freedom of design. Many years of work went into the designs and because of complexity of the pieces many could only be made in limited numbers. This ring is part of the third edition of the collection, revealed in 2015.
