Moustique has found a treasure: the crosses of Jean-Pierre Crespin. Discreetly in his home-studio in Le Paradou, very close to Arles, this artist crafts crosses, each one more beautiful than the last, making every piece unique. His father already created jewelry for Jeanne Lanvin and Madame Grès, and it was from him that he learned the jeweler's art. It was upon rediscovering his father's wonderful stock that he decided to try his hand at jewelry making, inspired by the crosses worn by the women of Arles.

The crosses vary in size and composition. No two are alike. This one is made of brass with a chiseled bee motif. On the other three branches, there is lovely workmanship featuring brass beads and an iridescent glass bead set in the center. The black velvet ribbon measures 60 cm in length when unfolded. The cross measures 7 x 5 cm.
