Paul Oudet 1970 Prototype Gingko Cuff Necklace in 18kt Gilt Vermeil over Silver
Located in Miami, FL
Double gingko necklace designed by Paul Oudet (1946-). A prototype sculptural cuff bracelet, created in Paris France by the sculptor Paul Oudet, back in the 1970. This organic piece has been crafted as an unique piece in solid .800/.999 silver with gold gilt vermeil. The design consist of 2 gingko leaves attached to the ends of a curved free form element. This model probably created for the Galerie Claude de Muzac between 1968 and 1974. This prototype piece is unusually crafted in gilt silver instead gild bronze that is the traditional metal used by the artist in his career. Weight: 128.85 Grams, (82.59 Dwt). Size: It is expandable, is sizeable and the actual size fit a neck up to 17 inches (43.20 Cm). Measurements: The gingko leaves are 56 mm by 42 mm (2.20 x 1.65 Inches). Hallmarks Stamped with French marks; the maker's mark P.O. inside a lozange cartouche associated to Paul Oudet, the mark of the crab for the 80% assay of the silver and signed, "PAUL OUDET". Paul Oudet, is a Postwar & Contemporary French artist and sculptor. He created rare jewelry and objects for the Galerie Grotte of Claude de Muzac in Paris, circa 1970. After having brilliantly passed the Applied Arts and the Fine Arts, Paul Oudet at 25 is a young professor at the Fine Arts, architecture section. But perhaps because he is the son of a naval officer, or because he grew up facing the Louvre Museum, where he spent long hours in the countless galleries, he sets off to discover the distant lands of Asia and Central America. He returned to France at the end of the sixties. He works and uses his know-how and his long observations to develop a singular work around marine architecture and plant structures. Albert Loeb discovered him and presented his work in Paris from 1972. Throughout this decade and the next he continued his collaboration with his gallery owner and multiplied his experiences. He participates in the adventure of the gallery of the Carita sisters, rue Saint Honoré. He is also exhibited at the Jean-Pierre Hagenauer gallery, at Artcurial and his creations are also sold at Henri Bendel in New York. Then, it is the eye of the Princess de Broglie, Claude de Muzac, who captures the grace of her objects and shows them in her turn in her gallery, an institution of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. It will then be Naïla de Montbrison. (La Galerie Parisienne...

Vintage Choker Necklaces

Vintage choker necklaces are elegant, alluring and stylish. Cameos, pearls, diamonds and other stones can decorate these necklaces, which come in single or multiple strands. Whether it is a statement piece or a delicate chain, these short necklaces always stand out and turn heads.

The history of the choker can be traced back thousands of years, with Sumerian examples discovered from 2600–2500 B.C. They endured as a popular form of adornment through the centuries, and during the French Revolution they took on a symbolic significance. Women wore ribbons around their throats to mark the passing of those killed by the guillotine. Soon, the plain ribbons were adorned with small cameos and other ornamentation.

European choker necklaces gained a salacious reputation in the 19th century when prostitutes were associated with black ribbons tied around the neck, such as the model in Édouard Manet’s Olympia (1863). Queen Alexandra, Princess of Wales, reversed the trend in the late 19th century by wearing a large pearl and diamond choker, reputedly to hide a scar.

Fashioned from gold, pearls and other precious stones and metals, chokers continued to be worn into the 20th century, alternately statements of wealth and rebellion. They experienced periods of revival in the 1920s, ’40s, ’70s and ’90s for both men and women.

Vintage chokers make a statement with an unmistakable air of femininity. On 1stDibs, find an alluring collection of vintage chokers today, including gold, sapphire and emerald chokers.
