Footnotes
This necklace may be attributed to the workshop of Georges L'Enfant, the Parisian master jeweller who manufacted for top 20th century jewellers including Cartier, Mellerio, Sandoz, Van Cleef & Arpels, Boivin, Bulgari and Hermes. In the 1960s and 70s the L'Enfant workshop became known for their extraordinary repertoire of gold chains, each painstakingly decorated in a variety of patterns and textures.
