With a trained eye, it is usually possible to classify jewellery quite accurately in time. We can then get a vivid idea of the circumstances that surrounded a particular jewel: What events influenced the design or choice of a gemstone, how it was worn, what occasions it was suitable for. The present magnificent bow brooch, for example, made us think of a time of origin around 1950. It is its dynamic formal language between abstraction and reproduction of nature that creates this impression: sweeping ribbons of white precious metal, set with diamonds, were part of the fixed formal repertoire of the 1950s. The varied cuts of the diamonds and the workmanship also speak the lively language of the post-war years, when precious white jewels were prized for the evening. In the 1950s, the separation of jewellery for daytime and jewellery for evening, already known in the 19th century, continued to apply. Diamonds in white gold or platinum settings were permitted for balls and receptions, sometimes enriched by individual rubies, sapphires or emeralds. Our brooch sets sixty-three diamonds with a total weight of almost three carats in luxurious platinum. The diamonds are all fine white and shaped in brilliant, baguette, trapezoid and octagonal cuts. Their different cuts give the jewellery a particularly rich play of light. The white ribbons and fabric panels perform a dance full of dynamics. In this, in this delight in plastic design, the jewellery of the 1950s are still completely related to the late Art Deco, the so-called "Retro Style". We discovered the bow here in Berlin. According to its hallmark, it was made in Germany. We had an appraisal done in Idar-Oberstein, which independently confirmed the quality of the diamonds and the value of the bow once again. It comes with the piece of jewellery.
