Scary face bracelet. Golden copper. Herve Van der Straeten jewellery
Herve Van der Straeten jewellery
Known for its interior design, the Herve Van der Straighten company, based in Paris, began to manufacture costume jewelry in limited quantities in the 1990s. Rare and very popular among collectors, most works are made from 24-karat gold-plated brass and gilded copper. Also, the craftsmen used pearls and semiprecious stones of manual processing. The firing and polishing are characteristic for Herve work on metal.
Traditionally, each Hervé design includes geometric statement pieces.
Former engineer, Hervé Van Der Straeten (b. 1963) skillfully used analytical precise geometry to create highly unique statement jewellery – drop earrings and cuffs, bangles and necklaces. And what is even more important, his jewelry is easily recognizable and does not look like anyone else’s.
Noteworthy Herve jewelry entered reference book by Judith Miller published in 2004.
