"Parure" is a term borrowed from French to describe a set of jewellery containing several pieces with a coordinated design. Smaller parures, often consisting of just two pieces, are sometimes referred to as "demi-parures".
Auctionet's catalogue of sold items includes a demi-parure designed by Gunnar Cyrén comprising a metal-chain necklace and a separate pendant depicting a panther. Other auctioned items include jewellery sets embellished with amber, enamel and coral.
