Bunney Sacai & Eug Tulip Brooch Yellow Gold
Bunney, Eugene 'Eug' Whang and sacai are proud to announce their collaborative project, drawing inspiration from the historical phenomenon of Tulip Mania in 17th-century Netherlands.
In this fascinating era, tulip bulb prices skyrocketed, fuelled by societal pressures and speculative trading. Despite the eventual collapse of the market, tulips remained as enduring symbols of beauty, leaving a legacy in flower cultivation and appreciation.
The second piece in this collaboration is an 18ct Gold brooch featuring the iconic tulip motif meticulously adorned with 246 gemstones, including diamonds and rubies, set across both white and yellow gold. Referencing the opulent illustrations from the time of Tulip-Mania, this brooch can transition between formal and casual wear, adding a touch of elegance to an outfit.
This piece smoothly bridges the gap between the vase and sacai’s ready-to-wear garments
