A combination of Eastern and Western influences contributed to the creation of the following unusual and rare pieces. First a rare desk clock (lot 320), with champlevé enamel whose base refelcts thte Oriental influence that has been masterfully translated by Cartier. The nephrite parfume bowl (lot 322) also typically illustrates the Chinese influence and design as well as the delicate enamel pill box (lox 321) with a fine jade annular top.
