In a book on the history of jewellery, Hermann Barth wrote in 1903: "[...] jewellery must not only adapt itself to the human form in a meaningful way, but also accentuate it and present certain characteristics of the form in the right light. Otherwise it cannot lay claim to the name of jewellery." (Hermann Barth: Das Geschmeide, vol. 2, Berlin 1903, p. 13.) The present necklace, whose pendulum-shaped pendant can cling perfectly to the décolleté thanks to its hinges, seems to have been designed entirely in accordance with this guiding principle: A shimmering pearl is the focal point of the pendant, which surrounds it like a white flower with a wreath of glittering diamonds. Rows of diamonds linked together in a flexible manner extend from the blossom and lead to a delicate chain. Delicate, swinging Y-shaped necklaces became fashionable in the late 1910s. The clear, unadorned design of this piece and the cut of the diamonds allow us to date it to the 1920s. Thus, it not only combines the great fashions of the time, the geometric white jewels of Art Deco and, like the more playful designs, Garland Style. The necklace from elegant times gone by can also be seamlessly integrated into everyday life today.
