Stars and flowers are all-time classics in the history of jewellery. They can be found in countless shapes, materials and designs - the 19th century in particular loved radiant stars just as much as fragrant flowers. We are all the more delighted with this example from the late Victorian era, which came to us from London. The pendant is made of warm, shimmering gold and has a floral shape. The surfaces of its eight leaves are completely set with natural pearls that glisten in a soft shimmer. The alternation of curved leaves and small, radial elements around an attached, central flower creates a rich, yet balanced overall look. With its playful shape and high-quality materials, this piece of jewelry from around 1900 has a charming and nostalgic look. Its bright luminosity makes it the perfect highlight for a darker outfit. The last image we show is a page from a contemporary catalog illustrating the abundance of corresponding floral pendants in turn-of-the-century Britain. Illustration from the catalog of Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co Ltd, 112 Regent Street, London, 1901, illustrated in Peter Hinks (ed.): Viktorianischer Schmuck, Hildesheim/Zurich/New York 1996, p. 21.
