Those who love jewelry designed by artists, such as limited production by Lucio Fontana, have a unique opportunity with Christie’s London on November 3rd. Among vases, glasses and forniture there is one of a kind piece: the Spatial Concept with slit bracelet of the Italian-Argentine painter well known for his holes and slashed canvas. In this case the jewel, number two from an edition of four, in gold with a diameter of six centimeters, unlike paintings from the rough surface, the tangible and irregular texture, has a smooth and polished surface but the burnished slit opens up to the space beyond it. So, even with other materials and bases, Fontana manages to express peremptory gesture of art. One of his painting, la Fine di Dio series Concetto Spaziale, dated 1963 was sold at a Christie’s auction in New York for 20.9 million dollars (18.5 million euro). The bracelet is estimated between 40,000 and 60,000 pounds (55,000 – 82,000 EUR).
