    Art Nouveau Brooch
    €630.00

    This wonderful bas-relief brooch comes directly from the floral Art Nouveau period. Oval in shape, this lovely antique brooch represents an beautiful woman in profile, her hat adorned with small flowers and her dress made of a drapery. Two elegant dragonflies encircle her and bring life to this little piece of art. The dragonfly embodied many of the themes that the Art Nouveau style evoked: nature, sensuality and metamorphosis from one physical form to another. Furthermore, artists in the Victorian and Art nouveau period were inspired by the Japanese paintings of dragonflies reflecting the ability of light and joy to shine through. The brooch itself is encircled with small, detailled flowers and scrolls. The clasp is a pin with a safety hook.

    This yellow gold brooch is tested for 18k gold and signed by the French Artist Armand Bargas. A. Bargas worked in Paris in the late 19th & early 20th century and was a member of the "Société des Artistes Français".

    It would not surprise you that we love everything about this thin, light, floral jewel. We like the fact that the brooch is well decorated, we love the many little but breathtaking detailles and the lovely lady who is the subject of this pendant.

It is set with exceptionally large rose cut diamonds. These stunning diamonds are in very good condition and foil back set like most diamonds during that period, this is a special technique that was used to bring the lustre of the diamonds to its best quality. A crescent shape set with seven large rose cut diamonds is the central part of this piece. Floral shapes, small hand made engravings and twisted gold ropes finish off the large base of this brooch. Meanwhile small dangling flowers set with tiny rose cut diamonds ensure that this piece is a joyful treasure. This extraordinary brooch is made in 18k yellow gold and is in very good condition considering its age. We choose not to polish it in any way. This results in some parts still having their patina colours which they gained over the years.

    We adore this brooch because of all its lustre, moreover what is not to love about this beauty. Furthermore because Victorian jewels like this one, are rather rare as when time passed, most are worn out, were melted or taken apart and re-used for more modern designs. We therefore chose to keep the pendant as is, meaning that we did not clean this beauty although that would be possible. If pleased, we can clean this pendant a bit before shipping it out to give it a better shine.

    Antique Victorian wyvern brooch.
    €1,750.00

    This fine antique brooch is a fabulous jewel of a fabulous beast. This 18K gold brooch has the horse head hallmark which reveals us this brooch is crafted in France between 1838 and 1919. This is the time Queen Victoria was the reign of England, since she was very influential, she also influenced the goldsmiths in France and other European countries. Therefore we can say this is an Victorian Brooch crafted in France.

    The beast shown on the brooch is a wyvern. It’s a mythical beast which was very popular in tales told in the Middle Ages. It’s a biped legendary creature with legs which look like eagle claws, the head and wings of a dragon, a reptile body and a tail ending in the shape of an arrow. In contradiction to the most common dragons now a day, these wyverns only have two legs and don’t breath fire. In cultures around the Mediterranean this concept of winged snakes was very popular. During Victoria’s era, this creature was seen as a talisman against evil.

    This impressive example of antique French jewellery is a fine example of craftsmanship. The details in this brooch are extraordinary and well preserved. The tail of this wyvern ends in acantus leafs and his wings are almost coming alive thanks to the engravings. Furthermore he holds a beautiful old mine cut diamond of approximately 0,14ct in his right claw and is ready to attack any evil that comes close.

    This wonderful floral brooch comes directly from the Art Nouveau period. Round in shape, this lovely antique brooch represents a beautiful flower bouquet. The brooch itself is a plain round disc with hand-made engravings set with two little seed pearls, a ruby and a sapphire. The clasp, which we believe is attached later, is a pin with a c-clasp. This yellow gold brooch is tested for 18k gold.

    It would not surprise you that we love everything about this floral jewel. We like the fact that the brooch is well decorated, we love the many little but breathtaking detailles and the fact that it is elegant and joyful thanks to the flowers.
