A spectacular and highly theatrical early Chanel-attributed demi-parure, showcasing hand-poured Gripoix glass in vibrant sapphire blue and emerald green, accented with pavé strass and luminous faux pearls. The necklace features a procession of sculptural floral links leading to oversized paisley-shaped pendant drops—each a tour-de-force of 1930s handwork and signature Chanel Gripoix technique. The matching brooch mirrors the same rich palette and bold, dimensional silhouette.
Early Chanel Gripoix jewels from the 1930s are exceptionally scarce, especially in such striking colors and dramatic proportions. A true statement set for the collector who prizes rarity, craftsmanship, and the opulent spirit of Chanel’s early costume jewelry.
