It is poetry that comes to mind when discovering a piece by Boivin, as is the case with this necklace known as “Pampilles de Feuilles”.
There is the movement and the way it is articulated, two essential elements of the jeweler’s language. There is the way the foliage is stylized; these Hindu-inspired leaves that reflect the jeweler’s taste for naturalism.
All the artistry of Juliette Moutard, the house designer until the end of the 1970’s, is in full display in this necklace that can be transformed to be worn as two brooches. This rare piece in yellow gold, set with nearly nine carats of diamonds, bears witness to the imagination and talent found in Boivin’s work in gold.
