Georges Braque
Georges Braque (1882-1963) was a French painter, sculptor, and printmaker who is best known for co-founding the Cubist movement with Pablo Picasso. However, he also dabbled in jewelry design throughout his career, often creating pieces inspired by his paintings.
Braque's jewelry designs were characterized by their simplicity and use of materials like gold, silver, and precious stones. He often incorporated elements of nature, such as birds, fish, and leaves, into his pieces.
In the 1950s, Braque collaborated with the renowned Parisian jeweler Heger de Loewenfeld to produce a series of wearable works of art. These pieces were highly sought after by collectors and are still highly valued today.
Braque's jewelry designs were seen as an extension of his artistic vision and were highly personal to him. They are considered to be among the most unique and unusual works of jewelry ever created by an artist.
