Art jewelry makes a unique gift for her.

These delicate vermeil earrings dotted with white sapphires recall the silky bloom held by Charlotte Louise Burckhardt in John Singer Sargent's (American, 1856–1925) Lady with the Rose (1882). The painting's monochromatic palette, shallow space, and emphasis on the figure's silhouette pay tribute to Diego Velázquez (Spanish, 1599–1660), whose work Sargent studied. In 1882, he exhibited Burckhardt's portrait at the Paris Salon to great acclaim. Burckhardt was the 20-year-old daughter of a Swiss merchant and his American wife, who were members of Sargent's cosmopolitan circle in Paris. Our reimagined rose evokes the subject's sophistication. 

We're delighted to present this item in celebration of Sargent and Paris. This Met exhibition explores the early career of the American painter John Singer Sargent, from his arrival in Paris in 1874 through the mid-1880s, when his infamous portrait Madame X was a scandalous success at the Paris Salon. Over the course of one extraordinary decade, Sargent achieved recognition by creating boldly ambitious portraits and figure paintings that pushed the boundaries of conventionality. Beyond the portrait studio, he traveled in search of inspiration for his art—finding subjects in Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, and North Africa. This exhibition gathers Sargent's diverse works from this period to illuminate his path to becoming an artist, which was indelibly shaped by his experiences in the French capital. These visually stunning works provide a compelling view of the Paris art world of the late 19th century.
