Bidspirit auction | Giampaolo Babetto: Geometric Gold-Necklace

Giampaolo Babetto: Geometric Gold-Necklace - BABETTO , GIAMPAOLO 1947 Padua Title: Geometric Gold-Necklace. Date: 1981. Material: 750/- yellow gold, hallmark. Weight: 110 g. Description: Signed “Babetto”. Numbered 7/7. The necklace consists of a series of geometric, pyramid-shaped gold elements that are connected in a movable manner and come together to form a clearly structured chain. Each module is constructed from folded triangular surfaces, creating a three-dimensional form whose sharply defined edges capture and reflect light in different ways. The design is based on a reduction to elementary geometric forms. Triangles, surfaces and volumes are combined into a modular system that focuses on structure, rhythm and the effect of the material. The result is a piece of jewellery that makes an impression not so much through ornamental details as through its constructive form and the interplay between surface, edge and volume.
