Auction Details
Antique & Modern Jewellery
The Art Deco era is characterised by bold geometric form and even bolder
colours. Regardless of the newly liberated trend towards male fashions, when
it came to evening wear, women wanted to feel feminine and glamourous.
Lot 17 exemplifies this perfectly, with the intrinsic worth complimented by
both the quality of the design and the individual wearing it. The tapered form,
with the more uncommon pear-shape diamonds, is accentuated by the
curved lines of the surround, the whole echoing the influences of the Far East.
India in particular provided many inspirations from carved gems to classic
designs and this pendant could well have been inspired by the traditional
turban ornament known as a sarpesh.
Whatever your individual tastes we hope you find something in this auction to
amuse and delight.
