Antique Diamond Bracelet in Platinum & Gold by Wilhelm Müller, Berlin 1920s

It's loud, fast and furious: the traffic rushes across Potsdamer Platz in the slowly fading evening light. The traffic lights in the centre of the square - the first traffic lights in Germany! - jumps to red - the waiting people stream across the streets, past the waiting cars, laughing, running, jostling, and filling the many large bars and restaurants around them. The neon signs on the buildings begin to glow, a jazz band can be heard from afar: Berlin in the interwar period was a cosmopolitan city, for a brief moment a melting pot of cultures, a New York of Europe. This extremely elegant bracelet comes from this environment. The narrow band is made of gold, the surface of which is entirely covered in light-coloured platinum. In the centre, the band widens into an almond-shaped, elongated decorative link. Three beautiful old-cut diamonds (‘Old European Cut’) sparkle in its centre. Smaller old cuts and diamond roses in the interplay of shimmering millefeuille set additional highlights. Arabesque sawing work in the Art Deco style breaks up the shape and gives the piece of jewellery a lightness reminiscent of textile lace. The maker's mark ‘XX’ attributes the piece of jewellery to the range of Berlin jeweller Wilhelm Müller, who had his headquarters in Gertraudenstraße in Berlin Mitte. In the lively and exciting city of Berlin at the time, designers such as Müller responded to the rapidly changing fashion trends of the ‘jeunesse dorée’ of those years with their high-quality and contemporary designs, creating exciting new creations that have survived to this day.
