Why is PACO RABANNE jewelry sought after at auction?
An exceptional avant-garde visionary
Each PACO RABANNE necklace, bracelet, earring and ring is made from materials that were revolutionary for the time. Creations in metal, plastic (Rhodoid), metal discs and assembled chains defy convention, inspired by the space age of the 1960s.
Inspired, timeless collections
PACO RABANNE collections are inspired by a variety of futuristic elements: reinterpreted medieval chain mail, industrial motifs, bold geometric shapes and unconventional materials. This creative richness makes each collection a wearable work of art.
Rarity boosts bidding
Some pieces are catwalk prototypes or come from private collections, reinforcing their value on the secondary market. Vintage jewelry from the 1960s-1970s or pieces that once belonged to icons can fetch record prices at auction.
