Intro
In Portugal at least, it has become a classic because it encapsulates many of the issues surrounding the definition of contemporary jewellery, yet it is somehow timeless.

With this series, Klimt02 invite professionals and researchers in contemporary jewellery and art history to reflect on what, in their view, makes a piece a classic. Our intention is to gather insights, almost like collecting data in an ongoing study, so that patterns, resonances, and shared intuitions may gradually emerge.

We began this discussion in this article: How and When a Piece becomes a Classic? Spotlight Artworks by Klimt02
