A rose is a rose is a rose... When Gertrude Stein lyrically evoked the image of the rose in her famous poem Sacred Emily in 1913, she was looking back on a long tradition of reproducing nature in the arts, in which the rose in particular is so richly laden with meaning. Especially in the years before the turn of the last century, plant motifs of leaves and blossoms were already the preferred subjects of art. They were seen to symbolize the forces of nature, the eternal growth and decay. This bracelet from around 1900 is linked to this formal tradition, the love of plant forms. The piece of jewelry is made of lightly gold-plated silver and features seven plaques with fine enamel painting. Against a sky blue background, we see a bouquet of pink centifolia. No two plaques are the same, creating a gracefully lively picture. According to the hallmark, the bracelet was made in the French capital, Paris. This well-preserved piece of jewelry came to us from London.
