Beads chains that take place
In the 1920s, as the liberties of women grew, the length of their chains, known as Sautoirs. Now, a century later, collars and chokers make way for longer silhouettes. The Levant store has been refurbished Antique tasbih prayer beads (a handful of the coins and brushes that goes back to the late Ottoman period) and the Tribeca Jeweler Ted Muehling’s Unique creationsThey are made with semi-fair stones and finished with 18-carat Golden Shift vessels, both fall under the décolletage, while Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co. Jade Sphere-Strung Silk Cord – Currently offered in addition to the re -published bone cuffs and snake cartens of the deceased designer – extends even further to 40 inches. Chains that go so far are “incredibly chic and not obvious,” says Sophie Buhai, who founded her namesake jewelry line in 2015. Brought her almost four feet long Constellation necklace – Available in Carnelian, Jade and Onyx – can be draped over the shoulder, wrapped around the waist or wrist, wrapped and lampled à la Coco Chanel, or placed in reverse to accentuate an exposed back.
While Pluto, the new wine bar of restaurant owner Sören Zuppke and Chef Vadim Otto Ursus, did not require a galactic adventure to reach, it requires a little effort. The main bar is located in the last room of a long space in railway apartments that is hidden behind a store. “We found that from the outside it is difficult to identify itself as a bar immediately,” says Zuppke. Inspired by Parisian caves à Manger and Pintxos bars in San Sebastián, Spain, the duo (who also stand behind the informal fine dining restaurant Otto) wanted to create a place for people to come by spontaneously. The wine list is a mix of favorite classics (a mixture from 2010 of the Provencal Vintner Domaine de Trévallon, for example) and natural wines from Germany (such as a Riesling from 2022 from Glow Glow in the Nahe region), as well as experimental bottles such as a mythopia -finito -finito -final -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -finito -Finito -Frisse Menu of 2018.

Kim Yun Shin’s energetic sculptures and paintings, shown in New York
The South Korean artist Kim Yun Shin, 90, has had a career of six decades in which she studied art in Seoul, trained as a lithographer in Paris, gave several universities and founded a Korean immigrant art museum in Argentina. But she only had commercial gallery representation last year when she came to Lehmann Maupin. Now, stimulated by a recent increase in interest in her work, Kim will have her first major solo exhibition in New York, with paintings and sculptures that the artist produced from the 1980s to the present.
Kim’s sculptures are usually made of sturdy natural materials such as stone and wood, inspired, she says, by a university professor who always told her: “Any great sculpture you make, when you roll it on the mountain, it should never break.” For “add two add one divide two divide one 1984-11” (1984), Kim used a chainsaw to cut Argentinian Angle Robo wood, which resulted in forms that look like flowering plants or human torsos. “Every time I use [the chain saw] There is a sense of fear because I am afraid that I will be injured, but there is also the enormous power that I put in it, “she says.” My wish is that people can feel that energy. ” “Divide Two Divide One” will be shown from 3 April to 31 May in Lehmann Maupin, New York, lehmannmaupin.com.
Impermanence is built into every element of the New York-based flower designer Emily Thompson’s Werk-Out The limited lifespan of the dramatic organic sculptures that she makes for customers such as Ferrari and the fashionable Ulla Johnson to her team of creative employees. “I instruct them about what the goals are in a free floral language, I was told, but nothing has been written down,” says Thompson. “It is a bit lost, as many of our flower pieces are when they are not admitted.” With “Emily Thompson Flowers”, a new book that deals with the 15-year career of the designer, Thompson now has a more permanent proof of her fantastic arrangements that dive, drape and spill over tables and floors. The book contains nearly 200 images of installations in addition to close-ups of its materials, including weeds, pine needles and moss. In addition to a preface from the British Royal Family -Bloemist Shane Connolly and an introduction to the T writer at Large Nancy Hass, Thompson’s own writing belongs to each theme -which corresponds to six of its recurring inspirations, including bushes, cascades and hoping. $ 65, phaidon.com/monacelli.

An Italian perfume bottles The scent of “American Psycho”
Ever wondered how Patrick Bateman, the fictional king of vanity rituals, smells? A pile of fresh business cards mixed with cleaning products? Or carpet and cocaine from the 80s? Johan Bergelin, the founder of the Milan-based perfumer 19-69, who specializes in conceptual scents that refer to counterculture (such as Purple Haze and Female Christ), wanted to find an answer. He traveled to Los Angeles to present a litany of scents to Bret Easton Ellis, the author of “American Psycho” (1991). Ellis, in the twenties when he wrote the novel, wore Ralph Lauren Polo Green at the time. After hours that make its way through Bergelin’s compound array, Ellis was intrigued by notes of natural sources such as flowers, combined with a part of synthetic origin, such as Aqua Accord, and how they “brought me to different places of that decades and that era,” he says. Bergelin eventually made a scent with notes of Bergamot, Sage, Aqua Agreement (it smells clean and polished) and Jasmine. The last American psycho scent is not anchored in blood or darkness, but finely sparkling water, icy sorbet and the clear but subtle aroma of a freshly washed power suit. The perfume is the first in a coming series inspired by Ellis’s books. $ 203, nineteen-sixtynine.com.
