The 'Double Boule' ring by Van Cleef & Arpels perfectly embodies the boldness and elegance of French high jewelry. Its sculptural design, composed of two rounded volumes facing one another, plays on a captivating contrast between the icy brilliance of diamonds and the fiery warmth of rubies. A symbol of balance and duality, this creation showcases the Maison’s exceptional craftsmanship, notably through the mystery setting used for the rubies. An heir to the iconic designs of the 1960s, the 'Double Boule' continues to enchant with its timeless modernity. It reflects the art of Van Cleef & Arpels, transforming precious matter into movement and light. Cf. S.Raulet, Van Cleef & Arpels, Editions du Regard, Paris, 1986, p.118 for a similar ring
