Bar brooches or pins - these are names for a form of jewelry that enjoyed great popularity in the first decades of the 20th century. People wore them in many ways, and especially creative in the Art Deco period. The German fashion journal "Die Dame", for example, let it be known in its fashion notes of 1925 that people now wore "rather voluminous pins, which always look best at the front at the waist as a fastener or conclusion to an insert." But such a pin can also be worn in many other ways: on a lapel, on a scarf, on the collar of a blouse. This bar brooch is of particularly high quality. Weighing an impressive 9.6 grams, it is made of solid gold with a layer of platinum added to the front. Five transitional-cut diamonds shine in the center, their brilliance and size further accentuated by shadow gaps surrounding them. Unusually bright, clear diamond roses shimmer on the pin, which is interspersed with arabesque saw work. In total, there are about 1.33 ct of diamonds set. The brooch is a beautifully preserved piece of jewelry typical of the period, dating from the heyday of Art Deco. It is very well preserved and of exquisite quality.

White jewels, jewelry in white colorfulness, celebrate the light. At the end of the 19th century, the innovation of the electric light bulb turned night into day. Consequently, jewellery could now shine in the evening as never before. At the great balls in Paris, London and St. Petersburg, ever more magnificent diamond necklaces were presented, as well as tiaras, brooches and rings, all dreams in white diamonds. When at the beginning of the 20th century first platinum and finally also white gold made their way into the shop windows of the jewelers, this white brilliance was perfect, and the night was turned into day.
