French Bakelite Post Modern Collar, Bijoux Guillemette l'Hoir

About the Item

Turquoise patinaed Galalith with Memphis styled overtones from the 1970's Paris. François Schoenlaub set up the company GUILLEMETTE L'HOIR - PARIS when he first discovered Galalith (or French bakelite ) in 1976. He designed and produced his first collection of jewelery - refined and minimalist in style, with instant success. He mixed GALALITH with other materials - precious wood, plexiglass, horn, black rubber - each piece cut and crafted by hand and then polished. He invented subtle ranges of colour, taking inspiration from the major creative trends of the time, notably the Memphis group, resulting in eye-catching jewellery. His designs are in the Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris. His postmodern take on Art Deco themes make his pieces timeless, collectible and rare.
