About Van Gogh's Rosebush Necklace

Van Gogh's Rosebush is a handmade necklace inspired by the painting Rosebush in Blossom by Vincent van Gogh. The necklace is made of 18 karat gold and freshwater biwa button pearls. The pearls recall the rounded shapes and varied sizes of the roses on the canvas. The gold forms branches that link one pearl to another. The tip of the necklace is detachable, so the piece can be matched to the mood and the neckline of the day. The slightly curved form helps the necklace fit the body. The design offers a modern use of pearls.

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.
Project Duration
The project started in september 2019 in Brasilia, Brazil, and finished in January 2020 in Brasilia, Brazil.
