An artful gift inspired by The Met collection. In May of 1890, on the eve of his departure from the asylum in Saint-Rémy, Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853-1890) painted a group of four exceptional still lifes, including the Museum's Roses (1890), which inspired this ballpoint pen. Though the color has since faded, traces of pink nestled in the blooms and along the tabletop hint at the vividness of the artist's canvas of pink roses against a yellow-green background in a green vase in its original state.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Tudor Rose Drop Earrings The Metropolitan Museum of Art Tudor Rose Drop Earrings 132.95 USD Art jewelry inspired by The Met collection. These eye-catching earrings bring to life a late 19th-early 20th-century Tudor rose design by Ernest Geldart (British, 1848-1929) for an ecclesiastical embroidery. Geldart was a priest and architect during the Gothic Revival, a Victorian movement to revitalize the styles and tenets of medieval architecture. The Tudor rose is itself a medieval motif uniting the emblems of two families-the red rose of the House of Lancaster and the white rose of the House of York-who vied for the English throne in the 15th century. The so-called Wars of the Roses ended with the coronation of the Lancastrian Henry Tudor (also known as Henry VII); however, as a gesture of peace, he married the daughter of the late Yorkist king Richard III. The iconic Tudor rose, bearing five red and five white petals in tribute to the families' union, became his dynasty's badge. Our earrings reconceptualize the emblem with brilliant blue hand-painted enamel and lapis. Read our blog post
The Metropolitan Museum of Art Sargent Rose Brooch The Metropolitan Museum of Art Sargent Rose Brooch 102.95 USD Gifts for art lovers. This embellished brooch recalls 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. Read our blog post
