Delicate Turquoise and Pearl Pendant in Gold, British, c. 1900

Description

This description was automatically translated from German. If you have any questions about this piece of jewellery, we will be happy to help!

Every country and every era has its own fashions, which sometimes differ more, sometimes less from those of other countries and eras. In Great Britain, perhaps favored by its insularity, we find several quite unique fashions in the 19th and early 20th centuries that we cannot observe in mainland Europe. One of these passions was the love of jewellery made of warmly glowing yellow gold, set with countless small pearls and colored stones - we see a very beautiful example of this here. The pendant in the shape of three gold leaves is set with pearls and turquoises. The color of the turquoise - the shade of forget-me-not - and the pure white of the pearls complement each other wonderfully. The yellow gold tone adds a warm undertone. The piece of jewelry, whose materials quietly sing the song of love (forget-me-not turquoises were considered stones of sincere love in the 19th century), is in first-class condition. We were able to acquire it in London and are delighted to present it to you here. On British pearl jewelry in gold, see also David Bennet and Daniela Mascetti: Understanding Jewellery, London 2010, p. 216.
