The Van Cleef & Arpels Georges L’Enfant “Angel Hair” Vintage 18k Yellow Gold Bracelet is an extraordinary example of French haute joaillerie from one of the most celebrated collaborations in jewelry history. Sculpted in luminous 18k yellow gold, this bracelet embodies the technical genius of Georges L’Enfant and the timeless elegance of Van Cleef & Arpels.
Each interlocking link is meticulously hand-crafted with L’Enfant’s signature “Angel Hair” engraving — a pattern of fine, parallel ridges that create a mesmerizing interplay of texture and light. The result is a supple, almost fabric-like movement that captures the essence of French goldsmithing artistry from the mid-20th century. The intricate twisting motif gives the bracelet its signature dimensionality, while the alternating curves allow it to sit gracefully on the wrist with remarkable fluidity and comfort.
Measuring generously in width, the bracelet makes a bold yet refined statement. The soft, warm tone of the yellow gold is accentuated by the precision of the ridged pattern, which gives the piece an ethereal, shimmering effect under any light. Every curve and contour reflects the hand of a true master craftsman, showcasing L’Enfant’s unparalleled ability to transform metal into motion.
