EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning suite of jewellery from the 18th century is a true masterpiece of craftsmanship and design. The bodice ornament and ear pendants feature intricate girandole designs, with scrolling ribbons adorned with cushion-shaped apricot colored topaz and chrysoberyls. The pear-shaped drops add an elegant touch to the pieces, while the cluster surmount on the ear pendants adds even more sparkle.
The use of silver as a setting for these precious stones only enhances their beauty, creating a luxurious look that was undoubtedly fit for royalty or high society in the 1700s. The original fitted tooled leather case further adds to the allure of this exquisite set.
Each piece measures at approximately 8.2cm and 6.7cm respectively, showcasing the attention to detail and precision that went into creating these accessories. This suite of jewellery is not just an accessory but a work of art that reflects the fashion trends and opulence of its time.
Captured in this print by Jonathan Stokes, this suite of jewellery serves as a reminder of the timeless appeal and enduring beauty of fine jewelry from centuries past.
