African art has been an important source of inspiration for western artists since the beginning of the twentieth century.
For a long time misunderstood, since the beginning of the 20th century African art has never ceased to act as a major source of inspiration for important Western art movements.
A source of creative motivation for painters and sculptors, African art has greatly influenced the art deco and modern art periods. African art is original and highly creative and still fascinates artists today.
For its new “Africa” collection of unique objects, S.T Dupont has drawn its inspiration from the very heart of African culture. Irregular guilloche patterns give form to geometric and optical lines. The powerful gleam of yellow gold creates a graphic contrast with the sombre radiance of the onyx triangles.
Through its masterful craftsmanship, S.T. Dupont expresses its unique expertise in precious metals, offering us a contemporary vision of this ancestral art form.
