Toutes les enchères / Bijouterie & Joaillerie / Timeless Aquamarine Pendant With Diamonds in Platinum, c. 1910 & later
Aquamarines were extremely rare in 19th century jewellery, but in the early 20th century they suddenly experienced a surge in popularity. The ability of the beryl to shine brilliantly in electric light was often praised in the specialist literature of the past: "The aquamarine and other bright varieties of beryl are stones which lose none of their brilliance at night," wrote Arthur Herbert Church, and "All beryls are very brilliant in artificial light and therefore desirable stones for the evening," added Helen Bartlett Bridgman. This pendant was also designed for the electric light, for the evening. For the so-called high jewellery for the evening was characterized by a cool white look in platinum and diamonds, often with accents of precious coloured gemstones. A beautiful aquamarine weighing around 3.60 ct is at the center of the design. It is surrounded by a frame of twelve wonderful old-cut diamonds. A loop with two more diamonds leads to a delicate platinum chain with which the pendant can be worn immediately around the neck. The pendant was probably created in c. 1910. The platinum chain and the pendant loop were added on our behalf. The above quotations are translated from Arthur Herbert Church: Precious stones considered in their scientific and artistic relations. A guide to the Townshend collection, London 1913 and Helen Bartlett Bridgman: Gems, New York 1915.
