ARTHUS BERTRAND: A GOLD AND CULTURED PEARL ROSARYThe cultured pearls interspersed by gold beads and rondelles, leading to a circular gold plaque depicting in relief the portrait of Virgin Mary, suspending a similarly-set pierced baptismal cross, in 18K gold, French assay marks, signed Arthus Bertrand, length 47cm (approx. length of necklace (no clasp): 67cmFor over 200 years, Maison Arthus Bertrand has been known for its exceptional craftsmanship in jewellery, passed down through six generations of the same family. Founded in 1803 by Arthus Claude Bertrand, the company initially published travel accounts funded by the Napoleonic Empire, gaining recognition for its detailed work. Located on Rue d’Hautefeuille in Paris, it became renowned for its creative excellence and scholarly publications, eventually becoming the official publisher for the French Navy’s geographic society.A significant turning point came when Arthus-Claude Bertrand married the daughter of Michel-Ange Marion, leading to a merger with Maison Marion, known for its embroidery, insignia, military flags, and Legions of Honour. This merger shifted the focus entirely to jewellery and insignia. Over generations, the Maison expanded its expertise, using techniques like bas-relief sculpture, stamping, grand feu enamelling, and engraving. In 1937, the launch of its first jewellery collection, featuring religious medallions and avant-garde pieces, marked a pivotal moment.Under the creative direction of Emmanuel Aubry in 2016, and later Camille Toupet, Arthus Bertrand embraced contemporary jewellery design while honouring its heritage. Toupet's innovative approach introduced fresh designs, such as the ribbed grosgrain texture of the Ruban collection and the laurel leaves of the Gloria Etoilée collection. The Maison continued to innovate with vibrant enamelled medallions and the refined Royale collection. Arthus Bertrand’s appeal lies in blending historical elements with modern elegance, resulting in sophisticated and feminine creations that resonate with contemporary lifestyles.Once mainly seen in religious settings, rosaries have now become fashionable. Designers and style icons have embraced the rosary's intricate beauty and symbolism, incorporating them into modern outfits. This trend blends Gothic and Renaissance influences, making rosary jewellery a meaningful and stylish accessory. Rosary necklaces have evolved from tools for prayer and meditation to fashionable jewellery pieces. While they still represent faith and reflection, their versatile designs make them suitable for occasions like baptisms, confirmations, weddings, or birthdays. Modern rosary necklaces serve as stylish reminders of spiritual commitment, with various designs, metals, and gemstones allowing for subtle self-expression. This evolution has integrated the rosary into contemporary fashion, broadening its appeal and gently challenging traditional views of religious accessories in everyday style.
