Rather than a uniformly refined industrial appearance, each plate creates a sense of dimensionality with subtle variations, and you can enjoy a rich expression that changes how it catches the light each time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEach plate is connected by small metal parts, allowing a flexible mobility that gently conforms to the motion of your arm. Even though it uses large-scale elements, it is not rigidly integrated into a single piece; instead, a link structure gives it natural movement. When worn around the wrist, it creates both a sculptural sense of presence and the graceful suppleness expected of jewelry.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe hammer-finish texturing applied to the surface provides fine shadowing on the metal, serving as an important design detail to prevent the gold shine from looking monotonous. Unlike jewelry composed solely of a smooth mirror-like finish, the uneven surface captures light in intricate ways, resulting in a deep, characterful look that is distinctive to vintage costume jewelry.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe clasp uses a round clasp, and a three-dimensional YSL Cassandre logo is placed in the recessed area at the center. The circular metal fitting itself continues the surface texture; rather than concealing the clasp as a functional component, it is integrated into the overall design, so the brand’s signature can be appreciated from the back and during fastening and unfastening.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn addition, the end portion features a charm fitted with a three-dimensional YSL logo on a vertically elongated rectangular metal plate. Compared to the linked sequence of large coin plates, the inclusion of a straight-edged rectangular charm adds a refined accent to the softly organic form, helping to tighten the look of the entire wrist area. This is clearly reflected in the lavish design sensibility characteristic of Yves Saint Laurent accessories from that era: the brand logo is rendered in three dimensions not only on the surface but also on the clasp and end parts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe YSL stacked lettering placed at the center is based on the Cassandre logo created in 1961. The distinctive shape formed by the overlapping three letters has been handed down to the present not just as a brand notation, but as a graphic symbol representing the history of Yves Saint Laurent. In this piece, rather than expressing the logo with delicate thin lines, it is incorporated as a three-dimensional metal element produced through casting, giving the entire jewelry a clearly defined presence.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA key basis for the dating is that the end charm and both the round clasp feature the old YSL Cassandre logo in three dimensions. Unlike the minimalist notations and laser engravings introduced after the 2012 rebranding, this piece is equipped with substantial metal casting, hammer-finish gold plates, and the round clasp typical of vintage designs. Therefore, it can be positioned within the Yves Saint Laurent accessory line from approximately 1980 to 1998. It also aligns with the period during which the founder Yves Saint Laurent himself was in office. This is an item through which you can feel the design language of highly decorative bijoux that were developed to complement the clothing of pret-a-porter and haute couture of the time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhile it is an accessory intended to wear the brand logo, the surface texture, the movement of the plates, the clasp structure, and the shape of the end charm are all completed as a single cohesive design. As a result, it has a strong individuality that differs from contemporary minimalist jewelry. You can change the overall impression simply by adding it to a simple outfit as a single focal point. We especially recommend it for those seeking a jewelry piece to serve as the centerpiece of their styling while enjoying the background of vintage design.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor styling, incorporating it into an elegant pants look paired with a shirt or a tailored jacket allows you to enjoy an outfit where the masculine tailoring associated with Le Smoking—symbolic of Yves Saint Laurent—intersects with feminine decorative elements. Matched with simple dresses or coats, the gold at your wrist adds a touch of splendor to your look, and it still exudes a strong presence even in styles that hold other accessories back. This is a special piece suited to the MOOD special collection—one that brings the Cassandre logo, passed down across eras, and sculptural metal expression into everyday life.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease take this opportunity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SAINT LAURENT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49380398858478,"sku":null,"price":7303.0,"currency_code":"MOP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/2751\/1534\/files\/E44F0BE7-F1AC-4B71-A64E-06B8EDC204AA.jpg?v=1786639899","url":"https:\/\/mood-by-link.com\/en-mo\/products\/sp15ysl","provider":"MOOD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
