Sublime sleeve Yves saint Laurent Gripoix and Swarovski

Sleeve Yves Saint Laurent – Workshop Robert Goossens – 80s

Superb haute couture sleeve signed Yves Saint Laurent, made of fine gold plated metal, set with Gripoix cabochons and Swarovski crystals cut in different shapes and colors. This emblematic piece from the 80s reflects all the creative boldness of the YSL house and the unique know-how of the Goossens workshop.

The contrast between the brightly-coloured cabochons (olive green, sapphire blue, fuchsia pink, amber, iridescent) and the matt gold metal gives this jewel a sculptural presence, typical of fashion show creations of the time.

A rare and sought-after model by collectors and vintage haute couture enthusiasts.
