Note du spécialiste

‘Van Gogh, one of my favourite painters, never stopped painting despite his profound inner turmoil. In his lifetime, he only managed to sell one painting. This piece of jewellery is a tribute to his creative genius.
At the centre is the sun, an orangey sapphire, with its rays of orange, yellow and white diamonds spreading to reach the blue and green shore of our planet Earth. A hymn to the beauty of day. On the converse side stands the dark silhouette of a tree upon which shines a crescent moon. The light illuminates the sparkle of the gems, which brings to mind the stars, twinkling in the night sky.’
– Darko Justa, Violon Rouge, Geneva
