Composite geometric shapes make up these letters, which although sometimes they are very obvious in the design, in others they are made in a more discreet way.Weight: 9.52 Grams, (6.10 Dwt).Size: 5.5 sizeable.Measurements: 20 mm by 20 mm (0.79 x 0.79 Inches) and raise 14 mm over the finger.Hallmarks: Stamped with the maker's mark, the marks for the gold and the silver assay and signed, "PIERRE CARDIN 14K STERLING".Pierre Cardin, born as Pietro Costante Cardin in 1922. He was an Italian-born naturalized-French fashion designer. He is known for what were his avant-garde style and Space Age designs. He preferred geometric shapes and motifs, often ignoring the female form. He advanced into unisex fashions, sometimes experimental, and not always practical.Cardin moved to Paris in 1945. There, he studied architecture and worked with the fashion house of Paquin after World War II. He worked with Elsa Schiaparelli until he became head of Christian Dior's tailleur atelier in 1947, but was denied work at Balenciaga. Cardin founded his own fashion house in 1950. His career was launched when he designed about 30 of the costumes for a masquerade ball in Venice, hosted by Carlos de Beistegui in 1951. Cardin inaugurated his haute couture output in 1953 with his first collection of women's clothing and became a member of the Chambre Syndicale, a French association of haute couture designers. The following year he opened his first boutique Eve, and introduced the "bubble dress", which is a short-skirted, bubble-shaped dress made by bias-cutting over a stiffened base. He was the first couturier to turn to Japan as a high fashion market when he travelled there in 1957.Collateral: It is accompanied by a presentation jewelry box.Condition: The overall condition of this ring is excellent.
