The Parisienne museum of decorative arts and design, Musée des Arts Décoratifs, has welcomed the latest and first jewellery oeuvre from Taiwanese jeweller Cindy Chao The Art Jewel into its permanent collection. Featuring a bejewelled butterfly emerging from its cocoon, with wings of unheated baroque Burmese rubies, fancy coloured diamonds and ultra-rare colour-changing sapphires, the masterpiece was added into the museum’s tribulation of the continuity of the animal theme.
Black Label Masterpiece I, 2008 Ruby Butterfly Brooch
Being the first butterfly created by Cindy Chao’s eponymous brand, the induction of the peerless Black Label Masterpiece I, 2008 Ruby Butterfly Brooch into such a prestigious gallery stands as testimony to the brand’s 15 years of priceless artistry. The graceful winged creature is at the epicentre of Cindy’s creativity as a jewellery artist. As years progressed, we have seen the metamorphosis of her annual butterfly collection, growing larger and more flamboyant than ever.
