Rainbow Moonstone White Diamond Chain Drop Earrings, Lauren Harper
Rainbow Moonstone White Diamond Chain Drop Earrings, Lauren Harper

Rainbow Moonstone White Diamond Chain Drop Earrings, Lauren Harper

By Lauren Harper

Located in Dallas, TX

One of a Kind Balance Earrings by jewelry artist Lauren Harper hand-fabricated in 18k yellow gold featuring a matched pair of custom-cut and faceted hexagonal rainbow moonstones uniquely flush-set in hexagonal 18k white gold elements set with round brilliant-cut white diamonds. These six sided elements balance perfectly in place by way of six 18k yellow gold chains hanging from a single jump ring and finished on accented 18k yellow gold ear wires. About the designer - Lauren Harper has always had a strong creative spirit. As a child, she was a classical violinist. As a young adult, she painted and sang. Finally, Lauren found her calling in the art of jewelry design and metalsmithing. "I wanted to work with my hands”, she says. “It was important to me that I have something tangible at the end of a days work." Traveling to the exotic locales of Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Cambodia, Thailand and Laos, Lauren searches the world for gemstones of perfect color and distinctiveness. She uses warm blends of 18k and 22k gold and studs them with brightly colored combinations of precious gemstones and brilliant diamonds. Lauren finds her inspiration by merging the individual characteristics of each stone with the art, architecture and culture of the places she visits. From ancient Egyptian and Byzantine designs, to Khmer ruins, her muse is the world at large. "The collection has its roots in the past,” she says, “so it is never off trend."

Vintage Maison Gripoix Faux Turquoise Dangle Earrings, 1980s
Vintage Maison Gripoix Faux Turquoise Dangle Earrings, 1980s

Vintage Maison Gripoix Faux Turquoise Dangle Earrings, 1980s

By Maison Gripoix

Located in New York, NY

Maison Gripoix Vintage Faux Turquoise and White Layered Dangling Earrings. There are three layers to this, all wrapped in an offset gold tone and then a long, dangling piece. These are so stunning and look good with many colors. Clip On. These are proper statement earrings in that they are so well-made. These can also be worn in the winter against dark colors. Guy de Maupassant wrote a famous story about a necklace. The story is about a young, attractive, intelligent, well-educated, but under-endowed bride who must marry a petty official and thus suffers from the limitations of living with a husband who lacks refined qualities. One day, to entertain his dejected spouse, her husband receives an invitation to a ball and gives his wife the 400 francs he had saved for a hunting rifle so that she can order an appropriate dress. However, when the dress is ready, it becomes clear that it is lacking jewelry, and it would be impossible to attend the ball while looking so poor. The protagonist approaches her wealthy childhood friend, with whom she was raised at the monastery, and borrows a diamond necklace from her. The ball is a great success; she is the center of attention. However, when the woman returns home, she discovers she has lost the necklace. To conceal her faux pas from her friend, she buys a new necklace identical to the one she lost. To pay it off, the woman gets into a huge debt, which, over the years, gradually drags her down the social ladder from the bourgeoisie to poverty. Ten years later, having lost her good looks, the woman encounters her friend on the Champs Elysees, who still looks young, beautiful, and rich. The protagonist reveals the entire story about the necklace to her friend, but her friend replies in amazement that the diamonds are fake and would “cost 500 francs at most.” Maison Gripoix starts with a dramatic story. According to other sources, in 1869 (or a year earlier), Paris master glass-maker Augustina Gripoix began making replicas of pearls and crystals, casting glass into different shapes and colors and inserting them into the most sophisticated settings. She used the pâte de verre (glass paste) technique, whereby a traditional ceramic or gypsum form was filled with a multi-color piece of glass and special gluing substances and then baked in a furnace, resulting in objects featuring fantastical hues. Only Augustina made her crystals by pouring the melted glass paste into the press molds, skipping the furnace step, allowing her to achieve purity of color, transparency, and shine. She found a simple method to make beautiful jewelry, and thus Marquises, Duchesses, and Princesses qued up ... so Madame Gripoix would make them replicas of their jewelry in case of robbery or loss, or some unusual jewelry pieces for their new wraps, neckpieces, or boas. The so-called ‘costume jewelry’ emerged to a large extent thanks to the work of Maison Gripoix. Augustina Gripoix earned her fame in the 1890s when she began creating necklaces for Sarah Bernhardt to wear on stage and later designed costume jewelry for Charles Frederick Worth's first high-fashion house. Later, Paul Poiret, the leading couturier of the 1910s, contacted her, and she created sophisticated, Oriental-style jewelry to match his famous Oriental costumes, based on the aesthetic of Diaghilev’s initial Russian seasons. The value of costume jewelry was now being recognized in its own right and not just for imitation purposes. The taste of emancipated young girls, who were gaining more and more freedom and opportunities, was best met with bijouterie. So in 1920, when Augustina’s daughter Susan became the head of the House, Gripoix's prospects became even more exciting—girls with short-cropped hair in short dresses zoomed by in open-top cars wearing bijou rather than diamonds. Everyone ordered bijouterie from Madam Gripoix during this period, from Jeanne Lanvin to Jean Piguet...

Maison Gripoix Vintage Red and Green Flower Dangling Earrings Set in Gold Tone. These are some of the most stunning earrings in my collection. The colors, of course, and the way they are made. They are just exceptional. They will always be relevant. They are well-made and make a statement. They are just classy and chic. Clip On. Always In Style. Clip on. I also have them in blue. Acquired in Paris. Guy de Maupassant wrote a famous story about a necklace.

Everyone ordered bijouterie from Madam Gripoix during this period, from Jeanne Lanvin to Jean Piguet; however, the best relationship Gripoix had was with Gabrielle Chanel. It is well-known that Chanel, a fan of large jewelry with large stones, made bijouterie super fashionable. Chanel brought copies of Byzantine jewelry to Susanne Gripoix. She asked her to create the pieces in that same style, requesting, “Let everyone think that this jewelry is not new, but found somewhere on an excavation site nearby Rue Camborne.” She was so satisfied with the result of her order that she remained a faithful client of Gripoix for several decades. This was how the famous Byzantine style of Chanel jewelry was brought to life, featuring golden Maltese crosses with large multicolor stones and matching bracelets, cabochons, and massive brooches, all of which have become a part of the Gripoix . Chanel liked to combine both natural and imitation stones in a single item; for example, she would pair natural and imitation pearls in a single necklace. Gripoix made them in such a way that it was impossible to distinguish between them. Susanne Gripoix created exceptional, irregularly shaped pearls from glass for Chanel, imitating the baroque pearls. They were enameled in her workshops with mother-of-pearl to obtain some of the soft shine characteristic of natural pearls .. As the leading supplier to the couturier houses in Paris, Gripoix collaborated with many renowned designers, including Cristóbal Balenciaga, Pierre Balmain, and Christian Dior, as well as Yves Saint Laurent and, later, Christian Lacroix and Marc Jacobs. However, it was the cooperation with Chanel that was the most significant, both for Chanel and for Gripoix. Today, Gripoix is no longer a family-owned company, but the House continues to craft jewelry, although the style has undergone considerable changes over the last few years. The jewelry has become more straightforward, more graphical, and even minimalistic. In 2011, however, Gripoix and Catherine Baba...

Maison Gripoix Vintage Blue and Light Blue Flower Dangling Earrings Set in Gold Tone Clip On. Always In Style. Very Classic Chic. These are so spectacular. I have them in red as well. The prices differ because they were purchased at different exchange rates. These are stunning. They will never go out of style!! Guy de Maupassant wrote a famous story about a necklace. The story is about a young, attractive, intelligent, well-educated, but under-endowed bride who must marry a petty official and thus suffers from the limitations of living with a husband who lacks refined qualities. One day, to entertain his dejected spouse, her husband receives an invitation to a ball and gives his wife the 400 francs he had saved for a hunting rifle, so that she can order an appropriate dress. However, when the dress is ready, it becomes clear that it is lacking jewelry, and it would be impossible to attend the ball while looking so poor. The protagonist approaches her wealthy childhood friend, with whom she was raised at the monastery, and borrows a diamond necklace from her. The ball is a great success; she is the center of attention. However, when the woman returns home, she discovers she has lost the necklace. To conceal her faux pas from her friend, she buys a new necklace identical to the one she lost. To pay it off, the woman gets into a huge debt, which, over the years, gradually drags her down the social ladder from the bourgeoisie to poverty. Ten years later, having lost her good looks, the woman encounters her friend on the Champs Elysees, who still looks young, beautiful, and rich. The protagonist reveals the entire story about the necklace to her friend, but her friend replies in amazement that the diamonds are fake and would “cost 500 francs at most.” Maison Gripoix starts with a dramatic story. According to other sources, in 1869 (or a year earlier), Paris master glass-maker Augustina Gripoix began making replicas of pearls and crystals, casting glass into different shapes and colors and inserting them into the most sophisticated settings. She used the pâte de verre (glass paste) technique, whereby a traditional ceramic or gypsum form was filled with a multi-color piece of glass and special gluing substances and then baked in a furnace, resulting in objects featuring fantastical hues. Only Augustina made her crystals by pouring the melted glass paste into the press molds, skipping the furnace step, allowing her to achieve purity of color, transparency, and shine. She found a simple method to make beautiful jewelry, and thus Marquises, Duchesses, and Princesses qued up ... so Madame Gripoix would make them replicas of their jewelry in case of robbery or loss, or some unusual jewelry pieces for their new wraps, neckpieces, or boas. The so-called ‘costume jewelry’ emerged to a large extent thanks to the work of Maison Gripoix. Augustina Gripoix earned her fame in the 1890s when she began creating necklaces for Sarah Bernhardt to wear on stage and later designed costume jewelry for Charles Frederick Worth's first high-fashion house. Later, Paul Poiret, the leading couturier of the 1910s, contacted her, and she created sophisticated, Oriental-style jewelry to match his famous Oriental costumes, based on the aesthetic of Diaghilev’s initial Russian seasons. The value of costume jewelry was now being recognized in its own right and not just for imitation purposes. The taste of emancipated young girls, who were gaining more and more freedom and opportunities, was best met with bijouterie. So in 1920, when Augustina’s daughter Susan became the head of the House, Gripoix's prospects became even more exciting—girls with short-cropped hair in short dresses zoomed by in open-top cars wearing bijou rather than diamonds. Everyone ordered bijouterie from Madam Gripoix during this period, from Jeanne Lanvin to Jean Piguet...
