A 1903/04 catalog from the British jewelry company Saunders & Shepherd Ltd. describes jewellery in the latest forms as "New Art Jewellery". Plant motifs in enameled gold make stylistic reference to Art Nouveau - the very Art Nouveau, the new art that is also referenced in the name. This pendant is an example of this new form of jewellery at the time. A naturalistic enameled blossom, the setting of colourful gemstones and the frame of dynamic, curved bars correspond exactly to the designs also shown in the catalog. The flower is covered with shimmering enamel in light shades of blue. The slightly translucent enamel lends it a special depth, as the small veins of the petals are visible and stand out slightly against the gold. It is a specifically British expression of Art Nouveau that is presented to us here. A delicate gold chain completes the piece of jewelry, which still conveys the lightness of the "new art" some 120 years after its creation.
