Glamorous Brooch With 2.69 Ct Diamonds In Gold & Platinum, Zagreb Circa 1935

Description

A new basic shape for jewelry emerged in the Art Deco era: The shield, designed as an elongated oval or polygon. It suited the preference of those years for graphic forms, for jewellery designs that presented their decoration two-dimensionally rather than sculpturally. Above all, however, the basic shape of the shield was perfectly suited to show off the filigree processing techniques of the time. This brooch demonstrates this fashion in an impressive way. The slightly wavy outline is filled with sweeping, elegant lines, which in turn are set with sparkling old European cut diamonds. At the center of the design sparkles a row of six beautiful old European cut diamonds with a total weight of approximately 1.88 ct. A further sixty small diamonds also adorn the brooch. The brooch is made of 14-karat yellow gold with a platinum cover, making it a typical white jewel of the interwar period. Thanks to its hallmark, the glamorous brooch can be dated even more precisely to the years shortly after 1933, when it was created in Zagreb, which was part of Yugoslavia at the time. The piece of jewellery impressively shows that the design language of Art Deco was not only implemented in the large metropolises such as Paris, Berlin or Vienna, but also in the smaller countries of the continent. The Art Déco style was particularly popular in Eastern Europe and in the short interwar period, not only glamorous jewels of this style were created, but craftsmanship and architecture also experienced a cultural heyday.
