Spring, with its organic shapes and bright colours, may well have served as the inspiration for this pendant from England. As if the incomparable green of spring were captured in stone, the twelve peridots, combined with shimmering natural pearls, radiate in this piece of jewellery from the early years of the last century. Its materials are quintessentially British: colored gemstones, creamy-white natural pearls, and warm, lustrous gold were the most popular materials on the island at the turn of the 20th century. C. 1900, green peridot was particularly popular, as it was considered the favorite stone of the legendary last pharaoh, Cleopatra. And since the peridot mines in the land of the Nile only became available to the English during those years, it is not surprising that peridots appear particularly frequently in pieces of jewellery from that era. Here, the peridots and pearls are united in a graceful arrangement. They are accompanied by delicate chains that cascade down, enhancing the piece’s beauty. The light, open forms reveal the influence of Art Nouveau. The necklace, which found its way to us from London, is in excellent condition and a wonderful example of a piece of jewellery from the reign of Edward VII.
