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 Xwas 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. Read our blog post

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Sargent Madame X Crescent Brooch - Rhodium-toned Plate
72.95 USD
Art jewelry makes a unique gift for her. This eye-catching brooch reimagines the crescent moon headpiece atop Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau's iconic profile. Gautreau, perhaps better known today as "Madame X," was admired in Paris for her artful appearance, and John Singer Sargent (American, 1856-1925) hoped to enhance his reputation by painting the stylish socialite's portrait in 1883-84. He emphasized his subject's daring fashion sense by showing the right strap of her gown slipping from her shoulder; however, upon the picture's exhibition at the Salon of 1884, it received more ridicule than praise. Sargent repainted the strap and kept the work for over 30 years. When he eventually sold it to The Met, he commented, "I suppose it is the best thing I have done," but asked the Museum to disguise the sitter's name. 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.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Spanish Baldric Lapis Braided Necklace and Elongated Drop Earrings Set
232.95 USD
Art jewelry inspired by The Met collection. This rich blue jewelry is inspired by a spectacular Spanish baldric (first half 17th century), a type of crossbody belt or chain often worn to support a sword. Much of the scholarship around jewelry fashions throughout history is informed by portraits in which the sitters wear a certain style of adornment. An enameled example very much like the one displayed in The Met's Vélez Blanco Patio, dedicated to the decorative arts of Spain between 1450 and 1700, is worn diagonally across the chest in an early 17th-century portrait of a young man.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Japanese Imari Collar Necklace and Linear Drop Earrings Set
267.95 USD
Unique gifts for her. This elegant jewelry draws inspiration from a pair of painted porcelain bottles in The Met collection. Though they were made between around 1690 and 1720 in the Japanese province of Hizen, they're housed in the Museum's European Sculpture and Decorative Arts holdings as they were specifically made for the European export market. Imari porcelain, a type of Japanese Hizen ware characterized by elaborate patterns in bold colors, became especially coveted by high-society patrons in late 17th- and early 18th-century Europe. This demand for vibrancy eventually eclipsed the taste for the blue-and-white palette traditionally associated with imported Asian ceramics. Due to the natural elements in this jewelry, the color of the stones may vary. Read about the Museum treasure behind this jewelry and shop other art-inspired designs in our blog post

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Philippine Pearl Double-Strand Necklace and Linear Drop Earrings Set
252.95 USD
Unique gifts for her. This luminous jewelry evokes a gold-and-pearl rosary made in the 17th-19th-century Philippines and now in The Met collection.Between the 16th and 19th centuries, Spanish missionaries traveled to the Philippines and brought with them, among many other Western traditions, the Catholic rosary: a string of beads used to count repetitions of prayers. These devotional beads assumed various sizes and forms, and continued to evolve until a basic design and sequence of prayers were standardized in the 15th century. In the Philippines, which notably boasts the second largest gold reserves in the world, many rosaries and tamborins-a type of Philippine necklace that combined the European rosary with pre-Hispanic and Asian visual concepts-were made of gold and embellished with beads of coral or pearl. Due to the natural elements in this jewelry, the color of the pearls may vary. Read about the Museum treasure behind this jewelry and shop other art-inspired designs in our blog post

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Four Seasons Paisley Square Wool Scarf
132.95 USD
An art scarf inspired by The Met collection. In the early 19th century, luxurious shawls from Kashmir became indispensable fashion accessories for the stylish European woman. The patterns on these costly, hand-woven shawls generally incorporated the boteh form, an ancient Persian motif based on the tree of life. By the midcentury, machine-made reproductions were being produced with popularity in Europe. Paisley, which is derived from the boteh design, gets its name from the Scottish town that produced many of these shawls until they fell out of favor in the 1870s. A mid-19th-century French or Scottish example in The Met collection, presenting a "four seasons" layout swirling around a central point, informs our stylish wool interpretation with self-fringe edges.
