All auctions / Jewellery & Gems / Antique Gold Brooch with Pink Tourmalines & Pearls, Great Britain c. 1905
This piece of jewellery comes from the elegant era captured by Giovanni Boldini or John Singer Sargent in their portraits of refined society ladies: Parisian silk dresses by House of Worth or Callot Soeurs, a hint of rose fragrance from a crystal flacon, powder applied with a tassel of swansdown, then pearls, diamonds, pastel-coloured gemstones. The Belle Époque, the beautiful era, bears its name for a reason. It produced more wonderful jewellery for every time of day and night than any previous chapter in the history of jewellery. This brooch was made in Britain and features the rich setting of seed pearls in glowing gold so typical of British jewellery. But even the pearls are only an accompaniment: the real protagonists are two oval-cut tourmalines in a rose hue. The shapes of the brooch are inspired by the neoclassical Garland style that was so popular at the time: an elegant openwork lattice in the shape of a heart with a bow on top, combined with the pastel colours, subtly revive the aesthetic of Marie Antoinette's times. We were able to discover this beautiful piece of jewellery in London.
