Lenfant was a master goldsmith who looked at chains as a “harmony of sounds, shapes and textures” as he wrote in his book Le livre de la chaîne. He referred to the “rustle of rolling parts, which slide against each other [like] chain bells” and said that jewels should be “in every gesture of life.” He understood chain construction as no other jeweler has and was able to create unsurpassed examples, such as this necklace. By considering the construction of chains from all the senses, Lenfant created masterpieces, as shown by this exquisite necklace, a rare and desirable addition to any collection.
