Finely Crafted Bar Brooch With Natural Pearl & Diamonds, ca. 1910

The bar brooch was one of the most popular pieces of jewellery of the early 20th century and could be found in the jewellery wardrobe of every well-endowed lady. From daytime specimens, in gold and set with pearls or colourful gemstones, to quality diamond pins for the evening - the bar brooch took many forms. The brooch here is a representative of this type, which pays homage to the aesthetics of the late Belle Époque. Delicate, lace-like designs were beloved in the early years of the still-young 20th century, white-lit in platinum on gold. At the center of the design is a rosette of slender platinum bars that sets eight old European cut diamonds and centrally one natural bouton pearl. Outwardly, the design becomes narrower as it swings out, then each ends leads to a large diamond. Its noble, white design with a rich diamond setting once predestined the brooch for festive evening jewellery. You could wear it to dinner or to a gala. Today these rules have been abolished and what is allowed is what pleases. The pin can also be worn on the lapel of a blazer or coat in a modern way.
