“Van Cleef & Arpels: Time, Nature, Love” is staged at the Palazzo Reale, a former royal palace.
It is rainy in Milan on the day before Thanksgiving, and the floor of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele arcade is so slippery you have to use your umbrella as a walking stick. You are in town for the opening of “Van Cleef & Arpels: Time, Nature, Love”; the rest of the small press team is ducking the weather at the, but you are hell-bent on visiting the original Prada shop in its original setting.
“Van Cleef & Arpels: Time, Nature, Love” is staged at the Palazzo Reale, a former royal palace, and is brilliantly curated by Alba Cappellieri, a jewelry scholar, professor and museum director. Cappellieri had the idea of organizing the show around themes from Italo Calvino’s Six Memos for the Next Millennium, and the result is a true embarrassment of riches, with 400 spectacular pieces gathered from the house’s earliest years to the present day.
In a space called “Time: Multiplicity” you ogle a minaudière made of platinum, yellow gold, lacquer, and diamonds, a trifle from 1935 that proves first off that even in the depths of the Great Depression some people had a lot of money, and secondly, that you really should own a minaudière. You are stunned by an array of tiny dancers, the iconic Van Cleef ballerinas with their starry skirts.
