ONCE A GREAT BEAUTY

Harper's Bazaar November 1949

DALI HO

Dali's prevision in 1948 of the turn that fashion might take - towards angles, kite lines, zing and flourish.

"Tree of Life" a delicate leafing of burnished gold, sprinkled with diamonds. The pendants forming a fascinating little face.
The "Broken Heart" clip, a clustering of rubies, with diamonds spaced on gold network. The "Lips" clip, a curved arrangement of rubies, pearls, gold.
