EOS Ring Sandblasted 18k yellow gold and natural white diamonds Inspired by Eos, the Greek goddess of the dawn. She who brings the first light of day, casting a golden glow across the horizon before the world awakens. A symbol of renewal, radiance, and quiet transformation. Crafted in sandblasted 18k yellow gold, the ring carries a serene warmth. Its matte surface evokes the first rays of morning light diffused through the atmosphere - gentle, luminous, and timeless. Rather than reflecting light sharply, the gold seems to hold it within, creating a subtle glow that feels both ancient and contemporary. At its centre rests an elongated, natural, step-cut diamond. Surrounding white diamonds accentuate the composition, enhancing the contrast between the softness of the gold and the crystalline purity of the central stone.

EOS Earrings Sandblasted 18k yellow gold and natural white diamonds Inspired by Eos, the Greek goddess of the dawn. The earrings radiate a soft, sunlit warmth. Their matte surface captures light with subtlety, creating a gentle and enduring glow. At the heart of each piece rests a natural, white, step-cut diamond. Framed by flowing lines and delicate pavé diamonds, its architectural brilliance recalls the moment dawn first appears on the horizon: quiet, luminous and full of promise.

NYX Ring 18kt yellow gold, diamonds, spessartine and red enamel At the heart of the Nyx Ring, a vivid natural spessartine appears almost illuminated from within, its intense orange colour emerging against deep red enamel, natural white diamonds and 18kt yellow gold. Named after Nyx, the primordial Greek goddess of night, the ring explores the tension between darkness and light.

Caretto & Occhinegro
Jan Provoost (Mons 1465-1529 Bruges) Crucifixion with a view of the city of Bruges, circa 1512-1515 Oil on panel 31.5 x 25 cm Expertise by Peter van den Brink Active primarily in Bruges between the late 15th and early 16th centuries, Provoost centered his art on a formidable capacity for aesthetic synthesis, marked by highly intellectual nuances and an unmistakable solemn style capable of blending diverse influences, from Van Eyck to Antonello da Messina. A shining example of this is this small Calvary, where three modernly minimalist figures are arranged with skillful geometry against a meticulously detailed view of the city of Bruges stretching out behind them. While Provoost explored this subject in other versions, always incorporating detailed cities in the background, none features such a precise and topographical view of Bruges. Indeed, one can readily recognize the belfry of the Church of Our Lady, the now-lost architectural structure of the Jerusalem Chapel of Bruges (still intact at the time), and the tower of the city's town hall.

Cy Twombly (USA, Lexington 1928-2011 Rome) Untitled, Captiva Island, Florida, 1974 Gouache and pastel on a collage of paper and graph paper, on paper 75 x 106 cm Signed, dated, and inscribed 'Captiva ‘Feb 74’ on the reverse Provenance: Galerie Yvon Lambert, Paris; Pierre Horay collection, Paris; Heiner Bastian Fine Art, Berlin; acquired from the above by the present owner Literature: Y. Lambert, Cy Twombly: Catalogue raisonné des œuvres sur papier, vol. VI, 1973-1976, Milan, 1979, n° 110 (ill. p. 115); N. Del Roscio, Cy Twombly Drawings, Catalogue raisonné, Vol. 6, 1972–1979, Munich, 2016, n° 114 (ill. in colour p. 108) Exhibitions: Paris, Galerie Yvon Lambert, Cy Twombly, April-May 1974; Seattle, Richard Hines Gallery, Cy Twombly: Paintings and Drawings, July-August 1980 This work, composed of a series of collages incorporating gouache and pastel on paper and graph paper, was created during his stay with Robert Rauschenberg on Captiva Island, Florida, in 1974. At first glance, the composition evokes the image of a lotus. Behind this seemingly botanical representation, however, lies a more complex symbolism. Whether viewed as a herbarium or an album, the work’s ambiguity seems to point more towards an erotic interpretation than a purely botanical one.

William Turnbull (Dundee 1922-2012 London) Young Torso, 1981 Bronze 49 x 28.5 x 3 cm Edition of 6, AP 1/1 Provenance: the estate of the artist Literature: Amanda A. Davidson, The Sculpture of William Turnbull, The Henry Moore Foundation in association with Lund Humphries, 2005, cat. n° 205, ill. p. 154 William Turnbull (1922–2012) was one of the most distinctive sculptors and painters of post-war Britain. Throughout his career, he explored the enduring power of ancient and archaic art, seeking an elemental visual language that connects the distant past with the present. In Young Torso, Turnbull revisits the archetypal figures and totemic forms that fascinated him from the 1950s onwards. The simplified silhouette evokes prehistoric figurines and ancient idols, yet belongs to no specific culture or belief system. Both familiar and mysterious, the sculpture seems to speak a universal language whose meaning remains elusive. The warm brown patina and irregular surface suggest weathered stone, while delicate incisions recall tattoos or fragments of an unknown symbolic language. These markings animate the figure, hinting at lost rituals and traditions. Reflecting Turnbull’s sensitivity to surface, line and colour, the textured bronze combines tactile richness with formal simplicity. Neither an imitation of an ancient artefact nor a purely abstract form, Young Torso occupies a space between recognition and mystery. Through the encounter between archaic references and modern expression, Turnbull evokes humanity’s enduring desire to create forms that transcend time and preserve traces of our existence.
