The reason why #Renoir-Matisse jewellery is unique among fashion jewellery must be related to its highly recognizable design style. The materials and design can almost all be recognized at a glance. From the 1930s to the 1960s, Renoir-Matisse became famous for its unique style. Brand founder Jerry Fels is an art lover himself. With the encouragement of his parents, he received an art education and often went to the Brooklyn Museum to sketch. He also sold his first work in front of this museum for $2. Jerry Fels later joined the Art Students League and the National Academy of Design in New York, and showed his artistic talent and talent. During the war, he joined the Air Force, became a B-17 fighter pilot bomber pilot, and returned to his hometown after the war to establish his own brand. During these difficult years of war and post-war years, young peoples self-awareness has risen, and they are eager to express themselves and chase beautiful dreams. At this time, Jerry Fels had just finished his teaching work at the National Academy of Art. In 1946, he founded Renoir of California, a private jewelry company in his hometown of Los Angeles, specializing in the production of beautiful copper jewelry. As for the reason why copper was chosen as the material, it was because in the 1930s-1950s, this metal was extremely popular in the jewelry industry. Renoir-Matisse’s jewelry is based on geometric patterns and floral sketches. The works always show the designer’s great enthusiasm and imagination. #Due to the great success of the brand, the subsidiary Matisse Ltd. was founded in 1952, and the work is a higher level than the original material, using red copper as the base and hand-painted enamel. The colorful jewelry design is fascinating. Among them, the “artists palette” painter’s palette series should be the most popular series among collectors.
