The Boucheron Wave Tiara 1910
Very little is known about this stunning tiara. French master goldsmith Coulot used diamonds to make the ocean come to life for Boucheron in 1910 with the creation of the Boucheron Wave Tiara. The tiara makes use of the diamonds as well as the spaces that lack stones to depict an asymmetrical design of breaking waves rising up from its base.
The piece was clearly inspired by The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Hokusai, from his woodblock print an iconic piece of Japanese art. Japanese influence in the fine arts in Europe grew rapidly in the late 1800s as a predecessor to Art Nouveau. The Meiji Restoration opened the country up to the west, and the Boucheron tiara is a masterful example of that inspiration. It is only known to us through one archive photo, there are no examples of the tiara in use, and its whereabouts are unknown. Was it sold, or has it been broken up - we will never know.
I hope this copy will give you a better idea of the exquisite work and design that went into this piece. Considering it was created in 1910 there can be no doubt that it was ahead of its time. During the video I have created a wave hairstyle to show off the tiara since many have asked, especially on the site of The Court Jeweller www.thecourtjeweller.com/2018/02/the-daily-diadem-boucheron-wave-tiara.html that it would be lovely to see a hair magician create a style to show it off. I hope the video will help with this item (OK, I admit it, Chriscarr49 is actually a hairstylist, hence my fascination with crowns and tiaras).
Some say that the design is like Marmite or Vegimite. You either love it or hate it. Now that I have held it in my hands can I say that it is stunning. You keep returning to look at it again and again.
