Russian-born French designer Sonia Delaunay was a multidisciplinary artist who co-founded a colourful Cubist movement known as Orphism with husband Robert Delaunay. Sonia’s work spanned painting, fabric design, fashion and theatre sets, all bearing her signatures of rhythmic and colour harmony. As an extension of her abstract ethos, her jewellery creations stand out from the crowd, and her influence on the arts was acknowledged with a 1964 retrospective at the Louvre – the first living woman to receive this honour. This 1979 pendant necklace has a sterling silver construction elevated by vibrant sections of lacquered enamel.

Mahnaz Ispahani Bartos, a greatly admired New York curator and collector, discovered her love of jewellery as a child through gifts from her Pakistani mother and Iranian grandmother, including Persian turquoise earrings and rings, Meenakari bangles and an Omega watch designed by Andrew Grima. Witness to two revolutions, she set aside this young love for 25+ years of scholarship on matters of global wars and peace. In 2013, however, she returned to her passion, jewellery, turning it into a profession with the launch of Mahnaz Collection, a gallery celebrating global beauty. Her eclectic curation spans renowned and lesser-known names from various eras, all united by exceptional originality, artistry and craftsmanship.
