Introduced by Van Cleef & Arpels in 1938, first under the name "agrafe", then "cadenas" from 1946, this is a model with a strong aesthetic that is still present in the brand's collections today. Dating from the 1940s, the model presented here is unfortunately neither signed nor numbered, but faithfully reproduces the design of this iconic Van Cleef & Arpels model.
