"How invigorating genuine, artistically executed gold jewelry is for the toilet, for example! For bracelets, the chain form is accepted on average; solid hoops are only rarely made." This is what it says in December 1897 in the magazine Der Bazar. Illustrirte Damen-Zeitschrift. In the years around the turn of the century, the time of the bangle was finally over. Fashion demanded bracelets: softly falling and much easier to wear, they no longer restricted the modern woman but followed her movements. This is a wonderful example of such modern arm jewelry. The gold band is a series of diamond-shaped, openwork links. As a showpiece, it presents three elements, subtly increased in size, each with a beautiful old-cut diamond in the center. The band is made of gold, which has also been fine gold-plated. This gives the surface of the band a slightly matt finish and a velvety shimmer. The diamonds, on the other hand, are set in platinum. The increase in the design towards the middle is a reminder of the bangles of the previous generation. In the following years, this peculiarity will be lost until the Art Deco bracelets, which are then designed with the same width all around. Together with the design language of the piece, which can be assigned to the graphic style of Art Nouveau, we can date the piece of jewelry to the first years of the 20th century. Quote from Der Bazar. Illustrirte Damen-Zeitschrift 43rd volume, no. 47 from December 13, 1897.
