This pendant is a typical example of a French piece of jewellery from the late Belle Époque. The composition is symmetrical yet exudes a beautiful sense of movement. Two large arcs define the front, their ends flaring out into small clover leaves set with diamond roses, each of which is accented at its center by a brilliant red ruby. Between them, at the center of the pendant, sits a larger old-cut diamond, from which three delicate, ray-like prongs ascend to three small natural pearls. Their soft luster softens the cool appearance of the platinum and diamonds. Another leaf-shaped element—like the others, set with diamonds and a ruby—features an additional, freely suspended old-cut diamond that forms the lower edge. The visible front is plated with platinum, whose high strength allowed for delicate settings and fine connections. The supporting structure, on the other hand, is made of high-karat gold. This technique is typical of early 20th-century jewellery and gave it its filigree appearance. A precious little creation of light and movement that came to us directly from Paris.
