Line Vautrin was a French jewellery designer, maker, and decorative artist, renowned for her unique creations that defied traditional categorization. Her work, often imbued with symbolism, combined goldsmithing techniques with intricate designs featuring hieroglyphic-inspired shapes, delicate lines, and visual repetition, all set in rich yellow gold. Born on April 28, 1913, in Paris to a family of metalworkers, Vautrin developed her distinctive mid-century Modernist style through experimentation. She gained significant recognition after her participation in the 1937 Paris International Exhibition and enjoyed a successful career in the jewellery and ornamentation world until her passing in Paris on April 12, 1997.
