About Elsa Schiaparelli

Elsa Schiaparelli was one of the most daring couturiers of the 20th century, famed for her collaborations with Surrealist artists such as Salvador Dalí and Jean Cocteau. Her costume jewellery was designed to be noticed — bold brooches, sculptural earrings and inventive stones such as her celebrated crumpled ‘lava’ glass — and the pieces of the 1950s and 1960s are now prized by collectors worldwide.
