Precieuse 20 has one of the most cryptic and layered meanings in the entire fashion world. It means, quite literally, "precious" in French, but it is also the name of a style of writing named after the witticisms of high class French ladies of the Renaissance. Such a name should tell you plenty about Pierre Mantoux's design. But where are the fabulous swirls and where is the overture of complex patterns? No. Wit, beauty and style is timeless, therefore it must fit in anywhere, anytime, no matter what. Pierre Mantoux understand that all these sophistications are found in understated patterns and designs. Precieuse 20 is minimal, not bearing any markings that might date it. It can be worn with ease and confidence during small, intimate gatherings, or at the most sumptuous balls. A truly timeless piece of beauty.
