Magnificent Pendant Brooch With Diamonds & Pearls, c. 1900

"Under the striped awning a continuous stream of black coats and gorgeous dresses passed into the house. Being there relieved of wraps and overcoats, the owners of the said attire flashed brilliantly forth in startling raiment and gleaming jewels. Diamonds sparkled everywhere. On snowy shirt-fronts and massive busts, on powdered necks and bare arms and ungloved fingers. They crowned the ebon tresses of portly matrons, and glistened among the curls and plaits of young wives. They blazed on shoulder-straps and stomachers, and coiled serpent-like around plump wrists (…)“ (From the serialized novel "The Countess Pharamond," London Society, April 1892, p. 336.) The Belle Époque, the splendorous period between the waning 19th century and the beginning of World War I, elevated diamond jewels in the non-colour white to the pinnacle of evening jewellery. In the new electric light, constantly improved diamond cuts glittered and sparkled like never before, and the innovation of white platinum settings made them shine even brighter. This jewel here here will also have accompanied its first wearer to elegant evening events. Approximately 3.41 ct of diamonds sparkle in milgrain settings made of platinum. The precious metal is set into elegant cruves that frame shimmering white pearls. Outside the volutes sparkle individual, large diamonds whose shape echoes that of the pearls. The metallic cool platinum, the brilliant diamonds, and the softly shimmering pearls combine to create a festive trilogy of whites. To ensure that such a jewel can be worn as often as possible, there are two ways to do so: The brooch on the back can be unscrewed in just a few simple steps. Thanks to a bail, the piece can then also be worn as a pendant on a chain, ribbon or pearl necklace.
