A spring day in London at the turn of the century: Just like the long awaited springtime after a gray winter, the economic success of the united kingdom awakens hope for a carefree future. The Empire is at its height in these years and new treasures are arriving daily in large merchant ships from the rich colonies to the capital on the Thames. The first warm days have attracted crowds of walkers to the parks of England's capital. In Hyde Park, the air is filled with the scent of flowers and blossoming trees. Chestnut and lime trees unfurl their first leaves and fresh greenery glows in the spring sunshine. The four peridots in this necklace shine as if the incomparable green of spring has been set in stone. The gemstones are combined with shimmering natural pearls. Jewelry with peridot and seed pearls was very fashionable in Great Britain in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The intensely shining stones came to Great Britain from the colony of Egypt. The combination with pearls enhances the wonderful color of the peridot in the best possible way, as does the warm shine of the gold. The necklace probably originated from a brooch in earlier times. We discovered it in London.
