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

The crosses come in different sizes and compositions. No two are alike. This one features brass chiseling mimicking foliage, while setting colored glass beads: 6 black, 3 green, and 2 pale pink. The reverse side features beautiful chiseling work. The black velvet ribbon measures 60 cm in length when unfolded. The cross measures 9.5 x 5.5 cm.
