Bracelet
This is a Bracelet. It was designed by Emmy van Leersum. It is dated ca. 1980 and we acquired it in 2016. Its medium is pvc, paper. It is a part of the Product Design and Decorative Arts department.
While superficially resembling manufactured jewelry, the precise tubular shape of van Leersum's bracelet was skillfully crafted and finished to achieve the desired industrial aesthetic.
