Alle Auktionen / Schmuck und Edelsteine / Luxurious Déco Pendant-Brooch with 3.41 ct Diamonds in Platinum, c. 1925
One of the most beautiful inventions of our ancestors is the pendant brooch: a piece of jewellery that offers two ways to wear it. This not only adds variety but also made investing in particularly precious jewels seem all the more worthwhile, since they could be worn in different ways. Here we have such an Art Deco pendant brooch. Diamonds totaling c. 3.41 carats make the jewel sparkle. The elongated, multi-stepped shape gives the design a clear geometric framework. Within this strict outline, the surface appears to dissolve—through the finest saw-cut detailing and narrow shadow gaps—into an almost lace-like interweaving of tendrils, volutes, and stylized blossoms. The larger diamonds, evenly distributed across the surface, provide distinct accents and break up the rich ornamentation. Milgrains further texture the metal and lend even the narrowest settings a delicate, pearl-like, lively contour. This extraordinarily delicate design is made possible by the use of solid platinum. Due to its high strength and toughness, the metal allows for particularly narrow yet stable bars and settings. After platinum had become increasingly established in high-end jewelry art c. 1900, it contributed significantly to that almost weightless filigree effect that characterized high jewellery in the following decades. In Germany, pieces of this kind were referred to as “high jewellery”—primarily intended for evening wear—whose effect is determined by the interplay of diamonds and platinum. The clear, graphic design elements of Art Deco were particularly well showcased by the use of white tones alone. When worn against dark fabric, the contrasts of the finely openwork design are further enhanced. Thanks to an included key, this sparkling jewel can be transformed from a brooch into a pendant in just a few simple steps, depending on your mood and the outfit of the day or evening. We have included a matching modern platinum chain with this antique piece of jewellery, which was custom-made for us.
