An elegant bow is attached to a delicate chain. It bears a row of precious rose cut diamonds and holds a delicate pendulum on which a radiant green emerald is set in a ring of diamonds. The charming necklace - elegant, delicate and made with great attention to detail - exemplifies the taste of the early years of the 20th century. Delicate bow or flower ornaments, diamonds arranged in rows and set in milgrains were combined in ever new combinations to create pieces of jewellery. The settings are always delicate and almost invisible in the view, so that almost only the gemstones shine out at the viewer. David Bennet and Daniela Mascetti: Understanding Jewellery, Woodbridge 2010, illustrates on pp. 267, 268, 269 and other places numerous pieces of jewellery that were created in the early years of the century, such as the necklace shown here. The necklace is comfortable to wear, as the individual elements of the pendant are flexibly joined together and the pendant is soft and supple against the skin. Its front is completely covered in platinum, which, together with the high-quality diamonds, creates the white, elegant and cool impression of the piece. The back of the pendant is made from yellow gold. Due to the different material properties of the metals and the technical possibilities, this combination, which is unusual today, was often chosen at the time. A hallmark on the clasp shows that the necklace comes from the range of Berlin jeweler Wilhelm Müller. It was therefore first worn in the turbulent Berlin of the late German Empire and came to Munich, where we discovered it, in the course of its history.
