- Jean_Mayeur abstract "Jean A. Mayeur (born 1928-01-28 died 1997-07-05) was a jewellery designer for Cartier in Paris, France; Cartier in London, England and then at Cartier in New York City, USA. His most notable works include the design of the mount for the diamond which Cartier sold to Elizabeth Taylor; a design of a Sikorsky helicopter trophy, an elaborate chalice for the Episcopal Church of New York, and a gold Minaudiere with butterflies and flowers for the Duchess of Windsor . His designs include work for Van Cleef and Arpels, Neiman Marcus, and other fine jewellery salons.Mayeur was educated at École Boulle (a renowned school for artists and artisans) and at 16 he began an apprenticeship at Cartier; remaining there for 23 years. While living in New York City he became a fan of the music of Dave Brubeck and personally presented him a portrait of the musician which he had painted. While working at Cartier in New York he met Salvador Dalí who was at the jewellery store with a lady friend. Salvador was overheard saying that they needed a precious gem "to put in the bread". During his visit, Salvador noticed a full length mirror in the showroom, so walking up to it he admired himself and preened his moustaches' ends. Then, without hesitation, walked into the mirror as if he expected to pass through it. After shaking his head from the collision, Dalí turned around and walked away as if nothing had happened. Jean Mayeur was also employed by Neiman Marcus in Dallas, Texas for many years, Richard Eisman jewellery and his last employer up until his death was deBoulle in Dallas, Texas.Jean Mayeur was also a contributor to a book called 'Techniques of Jewelry Illustration and Color Rendering' by Adolfo Mattiello, in which he wrote a chapter that shared his professional advice for aspiring jewellery designers.".
