In the years around 1900, the pendant slowly began to grow more popular than the brooch. Various factors played a role in this: for example, the invention of new machines that made it possible to produce more delicate chains than ever before, which in turn encouraged the creation of new pendants. But a change in evening dress fashion was also important here, as it was no longer as easy to attach heavy diamond brooches to the new, delicate and airy fabrics as it had been in the previous generation. This pendant is a beautiful creation of those years. Its dynamic, slightly floral design reveals the influence of Art Nouveau. Sparkling diamonds shine in a bed of silver. Three natural sapphires are placed vertically along the center. They are not inky or too dark, but shine in a wonderfully clear midnight blue. White, shimmering pearls complete the trilogy of jewels. We discovered the antique pendant in London and complemented it with a modern rose gold chain, the color of which picks up on the warm gold of the sapphire settings. The back of the pendant is also made of gold so that it does not rub off on light-colored fabrics.
