EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, hailing from the esteemed Edwin Streeter's Gems Catalog based in Bond Street, London, circa 1895, showcases an enchanting array of sporting brooches, each meticulously mounted with radiant diamonds. The vibrant print invites us to explore the whimsical world of these intricately designed pieces, which celebrate the spirit of the great outdoors and the joy of various sports. The centerpiece of this exquisite collection is a charming depiction of a pug dog, its expressive eyes and wrinkled features captured in stunning detail. Surrounding the regal canine are a myriad of other motifs, each embodying the essence of different sports. A frog leaps gracefully, its emerald green body contrasting beautifully with the sparkling diamonds. A wheel, perhaps symbolizing the cycling craze of the era, is encircled by shimmering stones, while a polo pony and rider gallop towards a goal, their forms brought to life by the intricate lines and bold colors. The brooch featuring a locust is an intriguing inclusion, its delicate wings and elongated legs rendered in exquisite detail. The art nouveau influence is evident in the flowing lines and organic shapes, which add an ethereal quality to the design. Each brooch is a testament to the craftsmanship and creativity of the time, a fusion of natural beauty and precious stones. This print, with its rich history and intricate details, serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of jewelry and the artistry that goes into creating these timeless pieces. The sporting brooches, mounted in diamonds, continue to inspire and delight collectors and enthusiasts alike, offering a glimpse into the past and a connection to the elegance and sophistication of a bygone era.
