Description

This bangle takes us back to the years around 1935 and presents itself as a simple, golden bangle with a domed top. Its surface is richly engraved with decorative tendril ornaments, all of which were executed by hand. Engravings of this type are a form of ornamentation developed in Vienna and are closely associated with the Danube metropolis in art history as "Viennese engravings". They take up the sweeping formal language of the Rococo period and show mainly floral, but also antique motifs such as acanthus leaves or scrollwork. The free, irregular and lively lines make each piece look unique. The fact that this bangle comes from the Netherlands shows how far-reaching the Viennese jewellery tradition was in the 20th century. In the 1930s in particular, jewellery designers throughout Europe drew on historical models and reinterpreted them. The bangle clings comfortably to the arm. It is hollow, but not filled with resin, which makes it light and comfortable to wear. The combination of clear form and detailed engraving gives it its special, modern look.
