A remarkable and exceptionally rare, signed Vintage Schiaparelli Speckled Egg Necklace parure dating to the 1950s, capturing the enduring ingenuity and artistic spirit that defined Elsa's House of Schiaparelli. Statement in both scale and presence, the set combines theatrical couture styling with an unexpectedly modern sense of balance and movement. The glasswork throughout is extraordinary. Hand formed speckled glass beads and dramatic twisted drops create a striking contrast against the warm gold-plated framework, the surface patterning recalling the delicate irregularity of naturally speckled eggs. The swag necklace and bracelet construction bring fluidity and elegance, while the asymmetrical arrangement prevents the design from ever feeling overly traditional or composed. There is always a subtle sense of disruption in Schiaparelli’s work, and this set carries that beautifully. Particularly collectible is the inclusion of two distinct pairs of signed ear clips. One pair takes on a more sculptural ear climber silhouette, highly unusual for the period and remarkably forward looking in design. The second pair references historic bomb shaped drop earrings, reinterpreted through Schiaparelli’s avant garde lens with exaggerated scale, unusual colouring and playful proportion. Though created during the 1950s, the creative daring and surrealist instinct established during Schiaparelli’s celebrated pre war years continues to run clearly through the design. The combination of sculptural form, artistic glasswork and unconventional balance gives the set a distinctly expressive quality that still feels strikingly modern today. Why this piece: A rare opportunity to acquire a complete signed Schiaparelli parure...
