With the industrial revolution, the long 19th century also brought great prosperity to middle-class circles. Last but not least, this also opened up new groups of buyers for jewellery. In fact, the years shortly after 1900 were a true golden age of jewelry production. In those years, ladies in Edwardian London could not only admire real gold jewelry at the jeweler's, but could even order it from catalogs to their homes and make their selection there at their leisure - because the jewellery should also match their wardrobe. This piece of jewellery meets this requirement, as it can be worn both as a pendant and as a brooch. The pendant loop can be unhooked for the latter purpose. This meant that it could be worn with both a high-necked and a low-cut dress. The design in the shape of a swirling flower is set with pearls. The petals are grouped around a spring green peridot. Small red rubies are set between leaf ornaments on the outer edge. The pendant loop is also set with pearls that shimmer in white. All the gemstones are set in warm yellow gold in the typical British alloy of 15 carats, which was only in use until 1932. However, it is not only the gold alloy that is typically British, but also the design of the piece: yellow gold with a rich setting of pearls was very fashionable here at the turn of the century. We discovered this vibrant piece in London. It is in very good condition.
