Dance of Elegance
Created alongside the manufacturing firm Rubel Frères, these pins featured rose-cut diamond faces and flexible, precious stone tutus made of rubies, emeralds, and diamonds. The aesthetic originated from Louis Arpels of Van Cleef & Arpels, whose deep love for the opera and ballet inspired these iconic dancer clips.
The Ballerina Cluster Ring was developed by high-end American workshops such as Oscar Heyman & Brothers and adopted by luxury houses like Tiffany & Co. and Boucheron. The ring is multi-layered, featuring a large central colored gemstone (ruby, sapphire, or diamond) encircled by flaring, undulating rows of tapered baguette-cut diamonds.
