AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Majestic palette inspired by the iris, this creation unfolds in regal shades of lavender and deep blue. Large diaphanous petals in violet tones frame the silhouette and extend into delicate drapes along the arms.
The bodice, subtly tinted with pale green, blends with bright yellow accents that run through the overlapped petals. The long azure skirt, flared at the base, underscores an elegant and harmonious line. The ensemble is completed by translucent earrings and long matching gloves.
Seller's Story
Chimay Collection House is a cultural and collecting project from Belgium, where art, history, and investment potential come together.
It was founded in Chimay (ʃi-mɛ), a historic principality in Wallonia, Belgium, within an 18th-century home that became a symbol of continuity. Just as stone preserves the passage of time, collections live on, passing from one generation to another.
The project is led by a Belgian-trained antique dealer with over 15 years of experience. At its core lies art history and a philosophy that views collecting both as cultural heritage and as a long-term value.
We have chosen two fields where passion and investment converge:
— Costume Jewelry of the 20th century — collectible pieces, many documented in major reference books and catalogues.
— Collectible Barbie Dolls — iconic editions that reflect fashion, design, and the culture of their time.
Chimay Collection House is not static — it grows and evolves. Its mission is to act as a guide for collectors worldwide, helping them to discover beauty, understand value, and shape the future through collections.
