About the Event

Glanzstücke

The major exhibition brings together unique and rarely seen objects from the MAK Collection with jewelry artistry from the 120-year history of the High Jewelry Maison founded on Paris’ Place Vendôme in 1906.

This project is the result of a vibrant exchange between Van Cleef & Arpels and the MAK, brought together by a shared passion and appreciation for exceptional design and peerless craftsmanship.

Through this collaboration, the MAK’s famous collection objects – from medieval textiles to the Wiener Werkstätte’s ingenious designs – engage in a dialogue with the Van Cleef & Arpels patrimonial Collection, which comprises more than 3,000 high jewelry and jewelry creations, timepieces as well as precious objects. What primarily unites the approximately 500 selected objects – more than 300 from the Van Cleef & Arpels Collection and another 200+ from the MAK Collection – is their exceptional craftsmanship, visionary design, and the materials utilized. The pairings also reveal surprising parallels in form, color, and motifs, which often stem from similar sources of inspiration.
