About the Item

This one of a kind brass construction is part of the Armor family that Robert has created throughout the years, from 1974 until 2019. The impact that this piece has is strictly for the red carpet or rock concert attire. Often Robert created pieces of body sculpture, jewelry like pieces of such scale that they become like armor. These kinds of dramatic pieces were always in demand by fashion stylists, editors and photographers. This dramatic piece is composed of 7 curved slats of hammered brass sheet, connected by chain for adjustability. A true collectors item. Created in 2015.
