Belperron, certificate
SUZANNE BELPERRON A personality, a character... An emblematic figure in the world of modern jewelry.
First prize at the Besançon School of Fine Arts in 1918,
Suzanne Belperron began her brilliant career in 1919 alongside
Jeanne Boivin who hired her as a
Suzanne Belperron, 1920. Archives Olivier Baroin designer. In March 1932, tired of seeing her image reflected in the mirror of the deceased René Boivin, Madame
Belperron, who had been co-director of the company for nearly ten years, resigned, leaving behind her an indelible mark.
Bernard Herz, a major pearl and gemstone merchant, offered her the opportunity to take over the reins of his company, allowing her to flourish in complete freedom.
Suzanne Belperron was to become one of the most fashionable designers of the 1930s. Her models revolutionized the world of jewelry| her materials, her volumes, her creations sometimes verge on the excessive, both artistically and sculpturally. Even if the jewel is sometimes a little exuberant, it remains no less elegant. Her creativity never exceeds the limits of good taste: that is the key to the Belperron mystery.
The work of Suzanne Belperron is singular. Her jewelry is graphic and pure, but above all sensual, not to say carnal.
A prestigious clientele solicits her as evidenced by her order books which list royal families, aristocrats, bankers or movie stars... In the four corners of the world, people marvel at the finery imagined for the Duchess of Windsor, the Begum Aga Khan, the Maharani of Baroda, the Baroness of Rothschild, Elsa Schiaparelli,
Nina Ricci, Daisy Fellowes, Ganna
Walska or Merle Oberon...
Unlike most of the great jewelers, Suzanne Belperron never signed her jewelry. Endowed with a strong personality, the artist had for only adage "my style is my signature". Her work still inspires many of them today.
Olivier Baroin "This set - as we rarely see - perfectly illustrates the work of the outstanding colorist that was Suzanne Belperron.
In addition to the alchemy of colors, it is the magic of proportions that we find in these pieces| the density of a pavement of Burmese rubies in opposition to the celestial blue of a Ceylon sapphire for a very "Belperron" ball ring.
A cameo of pink sapphire cabochons - just a little opalescent - for a flight of balloons just escaped from a child's hand.
A flower brooch from a wonderful world composed of citrine rods radiating around a ruby cabochon, all enhanced with "vivid intense yellow diamonds" ranging from lemon yellow to buttercup, passing through cognac or canary, the stem punctuated with engraved emeralds.
Finally, the softness of agate to warm these delicate natural pearls makes this cuff a romantic jewel of deep delicacy.

Une personnalité, un caractère... Une figure emblématique du monde de la joaillerie moderne Premier prix de l'École des Beauxarts de Besançon en 1918, Suzanne Belperron débute dès 1919 sa brillante carrière aux côtés de Jeanne Boivin qui l'engage au poste de dessinatrice modéliste. En mars 1932, lasse de voir son image se refléter dans le miroir du défunt René Boivin, Madame Belperron alors codirectrice de la Maison depuis bientôt dix ans, démissionne laissant derrière elle, une empreinte inaltérable. Bernard Herz, grand négociant en perles fines et pierres précieuses, qui lui a proposé de prendre les rênes de sa société va lui permettre de s'épanouir en toute liberté. Suzanne Belperron va désormais compter parmi les créatrices les plus en vogue des folles années 30. Ses modèles révolutionnent le monde de la parure | ses matières, ses volumes, ses créations effleurent parfois la démesure, tant sur un plan artistique que sculptural. Même si le bijou se veut parfois un peu exubérant, il n'en demeure pas moins élégant. Sa créativité n'outrepasse jamais la limite du bon goût : là est la clef du mystère Belperron. L'oeuvre de Suzanne Belperron est singulière. Elle se traduit par des bijoux certes graphiques et purs, mais surtout sensuels pour ne pas dire charnels. Une clientèle prestigieuse la sollicite comme en témoignent ses carnets de commandes qui répertorient familles royales, aristocrates, banquiers ou étoiles du cinéma... Aux quatre coins du monde, on s'émerveille devant les parures imaginées pour la duchesse de Windsor, la bégum Aga Khan, la maharani de Baroda, la baronne de Rothschild, Elsa Schiaparelli, Nina Ricci, Daisy Fellowes, Ganna Walska ou Merle Oberon... Contrairement à la plupart des grands joailliers, Suzanne Belperron ne signa jamais ses bijoux. Dotée d'une forte personnalité, l'artiste avait pour seul adage «mon style est ma signature». Son oeuvre inspire d'ailleurs, encore aujourd'hui, grand nombre d'entre eux. Olivier Baroin
