FORBES: Christie’s Presents Second Jewellery Talents Of Today Sale
Opening today, Paris auction house Christie's presents an edit of work by contemporary designers, in collaboration with Second Petale gallery, as part of the Joaillerie Paris online auction. The second Jewellery Talents of Today curation features Bare by Dries Criel, Luz Camino, MAD Joaillerie, Marie Mas, Rosior and Walid Akkad, alongside vintage jewels by Jean Fouquet, Suzanne Belperron and Cartier, available to buy until December 14.
