BALLERINA BROOCH
It is rumoured that Louis Arpels, inspired by his passion for classical ballets which he followed closely at the Opera Garnier in Paris, had the idea of a ballerina brooch. Created with sparkling diamond and colourful gemstone-set tutus, the dancers are depicted in a wide-range of dance poses. This refined icon clashed intentionally with the restrictions and cruelty felt during the 1940s, which were marked by World War II.
