NOTES

Gilbert Albert was born in Geneva in 1930. After studying jewellery craftsmanship and design at L’Ecole des Arts Industriels in Geneva, in 1955 at the age of 24 he joined Patek Philippe as designer and head of the workshop.

Breaking away from traditional shapes, he introduced asymmetrical triangles and rhombic forms inspired by his passion for modern sculpture and works by his favourite artists, such as Brancusi and Mondrian. He also introduced textured organic surfaces on the asymmetrical shapes designed for the Patek Philippe “Ricochet” collection. His daring and unconventional case designs are considered as cutting-edge today as they were 50 years ago.

In 1960 he went onto design for Omega, subsequently opening his own workshop in Geneva in 1962 specializing in the design and manufacture of unique jewels and objects. From 1958 to 1988, his fantastical and original pieces gained him the prestigious ‘Oscar’ award at the Diamonds International Awards no less than ten times: three for Patek Philippe, two for Omega and five times under his own workshop founded in 1962 - a unique achievement.

Over the years, Albert’s work has been exhibited around the world from London to Tokyo, Johannesburg to New York.

NOTES

Jean Schlumberger visualized the ‘Bird-on-a-Rock’ brooch design in 1961 to display a large topaz. For the designer’s 1995 retrospective at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, the Tiffany Diamond, a rare 128.54 carat Fancy Yellow diamond, was remounted into this iconic design. Subsequently the brooch was put on permanent display in the brand’s flagship store on Fifth Avenue, New York. Today, amongst collectors, this seminal design is instantly identified with the Tiffany brand.

Buyers should be aware of the PMCH Act which protects Australia’s heritage of movable cultural objects and supports foreign countries’ right to protect their heritage of movable cultural objects. The PMCH Act regulates the export of

nationally significant heritage objects, it is not intended to restrict normal and legitimate trade in cultural property, and does not affect an individual’s right to own or sell objects, within Australia. The PMCH Act was enacted in response to the 1970 UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to ensure that the export of any lots purchased are not subject to, or in breach of, this Act.

Information about the PMCH Act, the Protection of Movable Cultural Heritage Regulations 1987 and the 1970 UNESCO Convention, can be found on the Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts website at: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/movable/index

The PMCH Act implements a system of export permits for certain heritage objects defined as ‘Australian protected objects’.
