"It is often difficult for a gentleman to give something to a lady - let's just think of a ring! After all, you want to surprise, so can not ask about the size in advance! Perhaps this is an important reason for the fact that especially bracelets and necklaces are ordered especially much by gentlemen. Here, after all, there are no such difficulties, and the joy of a bracelet is certainly nothing less!" With these words, a jewellery catalogue advertised its offers in the 1930s. And this was not by chance, because bracelets made of platinum, set with brilliant white diamonds, were the great passion of the time. Every lady who could afford it wore such treasures - often not only individually, but combined several of them into a radiant arrangement of pure luxury on her wrist. The present bracelet of this era fascinates with its unusually beautiful workmanship. It is forged from high-carat white gold and draws its elegant appeal from the graphic shape and delicacy of its forms. It consists of six equally shaped links, each with a beautiful old European cut diamond sparkling in the center. Smaller diamond roses accompany the center stones, and in all, no fewer than 159 diamonds are set into this luxurious piece of jewellery. Finely sawn arabesques and delicate milgrains lend a lilting lightness to the design while exuding the cool elegance of Art Deco. We have had a detailed appraisal done on this piece of jewellery, which is included. Whether purchased as a gift for the lady of your heart or for yourself, the bracelet is a stylish eye-catcher on your wrist!

With the invention of gaslight and then electric light at the end of the 19th century, glistening brightness suddenly filled the ballrooms of Europe. No more dark, yellow candlelight, but the white glow of hundreds of lamps made the ladies' jewellery shine and glitter as never before. Not surprisingly, a new fashion also emerged as a result of these developments: white jewels made of diamonds and silver responded to the new lighting conditions and replaced the previous more colourful designs. In general, jewellery was increasingly richly set with sparkling gems to create an ever more luxurious and rich appearance. At the great balls in Paris, London and St. Petersburg, ever more magnificent diamond necklaces were presented, as well as tiaras, brooches and rings, all dreams in white diamonds. The name of the era, the Belle Époque, still indicates the goal of this period: To shine in beauty. But even in the following decades, the fashion for white jewellery remained current, right up to the Art Deco of the 1920s. Only the materials of the settings changed. The rapidly tarnishing silver was first replaced by platinum settings and later by jewellery made entirely of platinum or white gold, which was developed shortly after the World War.
