Item Details
Description
18K Gold, Garnet And Enamel French Art Nouveau Brooch, Circa 1900 Accompanied by an independent gemologist report valued at $2500
Weighs 4.3 grams Size: 28.7mm x 21mm approximately
One 18k yellow gold, lady's Art Nouveau era brooch designed in the femme motif. Depicted is a woman with flowing long hair; she is accented with shades of green enamel around the head. Additionally, there is one small oval faceted purple-red ruby set within a yellow-gold drop-bezel. This drop is at the bottom of the item.
A pin, joint & "C" style catch is secured on the back of the item. French fineness marks are present, although difficult to discern.
During this period, (predominantly male) Art Nouveau artists and designers depicted women in highly idealized, feminine, and seductive forms. Slender, attractive - and often naked - women with flowing hair featured heavily in Art Nouveau jewelry, paintings, and printed works.
