Lightness was the ideal of the early 20th century. Champagne sparkled in the salons of elegant hotels. The animated ornamentation of Art Nouveau and the elegant forms of Rococo livened up interiors, furniture and even entire house facades. Fashion houses such as the House of Worth designed dresses in soft tones, embroidered with floral ornaments and accentuated by delicate tulle panels. The jewellery also followed this ideal. This necklace consists of nothing more than curved lines, flower and leaf ornaments that combine to create a delicate design. No heavy, polished metal surfaces determine the impression, but only the harmonious interplay of slender curves. Each shape is set with diamonds so that it almost seems to consist of nothing but light. Individual diamonds form the leaves and flower heads. Above and below the showpiece, a pearl adds its soft lustre to the cool shine of the diamonds. The firmly mounted chain completes the light impression. It is light and elaborately crafted in alternating reddish gold and platinum. We were able to discover this beautiful necklace in the south of Germany. It is in very good condition and impresses with its lively design and fine details.
