| Description |
Asymmetrical bracelet on display as part of the "Jazz Age" exhibit at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States. Brothers Jean and Robert Rubel were born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire (Hungary) in the late 1800s. Little is known about their early life or education, except that they went into the mid-range jewellry business, making replicas of Van Cleef & Arpel work. Fleeing World War I, they moved to Paris in 1915 and opened a shop there under the name Rubel Frères. They began designing pieces as well as making jewellry (based on their own and others' designs) for established firms like Van Cleef & Arpels and Ostertag. When Van Cleef & Arpels opened its first workshop and store in New York City in 1939, Rubel Frères moved to the city as well. They dissolved their association with Van Cleef & Arpel in 1943, and began selling their own designs as John Rubel & Co. The firm became nationally famous after developing a ballerina-shaped brooch. Relatively unknown today, Rubel Frères was one of the most important jewellery workshops in Paris in the 1920s and 1930s. They created iconic pieces now ascribed to Van Cleef & Arpels. This Art Nouveau brooch is made of platinum, yellow and white diamonds, and cabochon-cut sappphires. It was designed by Rubel Frères about 1930.
