The years between the two world wars, the years of Art Deco, were an exciting time. In Europe and the USA, society experienced numerous radical innovations: Electric light became established, film created its stars and starlets, who were admired across national borders. The automobile conquered the streets and architecture suddenly took to the skies. While tensions grew on a social and political level, the surface in films, magazines and on the boulevards of capital cities shone in a glittering, seductive way. When the cinemas, department stores and restaurants were brightly lit up at night and the headlights of cars brought speed and movement to the cities, the world seemed new, better, modern. This brooch comes from this era and radiates the white elegance typical of Art Deco. Its openwork center field presents five old-cut diamonds in a row. A large stone weighing around 0.40 ct occupies the center, while four smaller diamonds accentuate the slightly flared middle section. Fine pierced ornaments structure the surface and lend the brooch a pulsating dynamic. The brooch is made of platinum on gold and was later rhodium-plated so that it now sparkles in brilliant white. It is in very good condition and found its way to us from Munich.
