This extraordinary necklace in the Art Nouveau style comes from a bygone era when elegance and craftsmanship shaped the world of jewellery. A piece of jewellery that tells stories - of the refined aesthetics of the fin de siècle, of love, beauty and the pursuit of perfection.
The centrepiece, artfully curved and delicately pierced, is a testament to the love of detail. The curved geometric shapes echo the natural motifs that make Art Nouveau so unique. Chain suspensions adorn the necklace like falling drops of morning dew and lend it a floating lightness.
A radiant ruby sits enthroned in the centre, surrounded by a delicate entourage that emphasises its luminous depth. The ruby, a symbol of passion and eternal love, magically attracts the eye - a centrepiece that reflects the soul of this piece of jewellery.
The fine anchor chain, variable in length, nestles elegantly around the neck and is held securely by a cylinder clasp - a detail that emphasises the finesse of the craftsmanship. The length of 41.5 to 47.5 cm makes the necklace adaptable so that it perfectly emphasises the personality of its wearer.
The patina that has delicately covered the gold doublé over the decades tells of an eventful life. Yet despite its history of over a hundred years, the condition of the necklace is remarkable - a sign of the high quality of the work around 1900.
This necklace is more than just a piece of jewellery - it is a work of art, a witness to its time, a treasure that makes the hearts of lovers of antique elegance beat faster. Anyone who wears it is also wearing a piece of history and the splendour of an era in which beauty and sensuality were inextricably interwoven.
