This necklace comes to life through the play of light. A delicate, white saltwater cultured pearl with a subtle rosy lustre, small diamond accents, and the textured surface of the platinum capture the light in a variety of ways. And yet the eye never tires of it: The entire surface of the pendant is adorned with the finest saw-cut detailing and milgrains, which create subtle shadow effects. The absence of any historical ornamentation underscores the modernity of the design. Tired of constantly drawing on the repertoire of historical forms, Art Déco designers sought out new shapes. Geometric, clean lines; light colours, preferably white: The jewellery of this era of renewal following the upheavals of World War I was meant to glow in the night like the new electricity that was spreading everywhere. It was meant to be luxurious, just like life, which had just been freed from the hardships of the crisis. And innovative, unburdened by the past. This necklace is a silent witness to that era and, even after nearly a century, has lost none of its delicate, ethereal beauty. As evidenced by its hallmarks and design, it was created during the Weimar Republic at one of the jewellery manufacturers based in Pforzheim, which had been supplying jewellers throughout Germany with pieces reflecting the most modern tastes since the late 19th century.
