Find Out MoreThis pendant was made circa 1860-1870 in a period called the “Holbeinesque revival”. Rings, pendants, brooches and earrings were made in the neo-Renaissance or Renaissance Revival style. The designs differ from the older stylised and pious neo-Gothic jewellery, in that they are extravagantly opulent. This richness of form and colour which had appealed to the Tudor court was rediscovered by Victorian jewellers and their patrons, reviving a fashion that flourished into the early 1900s. Here you have the rich green colour of the emeralds and the pigeon blood colour of the rubies contrasting with the bright white old mine cut diamonds. The design is a wonderful intertwined motif.
A rare and beautiful jewel.
I adore this piece!
