The Design

About Van Gogh's Rosebush Collier

Le Rosier de Van Gogh est un collier réalisé à la main, inspiré du tableau Rosier en fleurs de Vincent van Gogh. Le collier est composé d'or 18 carats et de perles d'eau douce biwa de forme bouton. Les perles évoquent les formes arrondies et les tailles variées des roses représentées sur la toile. L'or dessine des branches qui relient les perles les unes aux autres. L'extrémité du collier est amovible, ce qui permet d'accorder la pièce à l'humeur et au décolleté du jour. Sa forme légèrement incurvée épouse harmonieusement le corps. Cette création propose une utilisation résolument moderne de la perle.

Unique Properties
Handmade necklace made with the best raw material. gold 18k and pearls.. Designing a necklace inspired by Van Gogh’s “Rosebush in Blossom” required a different approach. Pearls were a natural choice to represent the rounded shapes and different sizes of the roses on Van Gogh’s canvas. Van Gogh’s branches became gold as they connect pearl to pearl in a complex web of beauty. The necklace’s tip is detachable, allowing the user to match the mood and neckline of the day. This necklace was made for the red carpet.

Design Challenge
The proposal of the necklace defies the conservative standards given to pearls. The idea here is to let go of the classic archetype of pearls and surrender to the spirit of modernity. Gold connects the dots as it recreates Van Gogh’s painting. The necklace's slightly curved shape gives way to the perfect fit; its tip is detachable allowing for *versatility* depending on mood, neckline and cleavage. Rosebush *undoubtedly* has what it takes to turn dullness into glamour.
Research
After extensive research on Van Gogh's paintings (there are almost 2000 works), the painting was chosen that would be the inspiration for the design. Then research was carried out on the painted tree (understanding of what the painter saw to be inspired). Realized the ideal design of the piece and choice of the ideal materials for execution.
