The distinguished Parisian jeweler JAR has incorporated historic Golconda diamonds into his unmatched creations (as seen, Lot 147), as well as highlighted Indian motifs in his designs. This incredible titanium elephant brooch is adorned with a Belle Époque style diamond aigrette, relating to the Indian tradition of dressing royal animals with jewelry.
