Country of origin: unknown Style: Belle Époque - The Belle Époque (French for "Beautiful Era") was a period in European social history that began during the late 19th century and lasted until World War I. Occurring during the time of the French Third Republic and the German Empire, the "Belle Époque" was named in retrospect, when it began to be considered a "golden age" the major powers of Europe, new technologies improved lives and the commercial arts adapted Renaissance and eighteenth-century styles to modern forms. In the newly rich United States, emerging from the Panic of 1873, the comparable epoch was dubbed the Gilded Age. In the United Kingdom, this epoch overlaps the end of what is called the Victorian Era there and the period named the Edwardian Era. Period: ca. 1900 Material: 18k yellow and pink gold and silver (touchstone tested) - See also: The silver on gold technique Silver on gold technique: This technique was very often used with jewelry containing diamonds because jewelers of that time believed that only a silver mounting could render the true beauty of a precious stone. They were also aware of the fact that silver jewelry often left black stains on clothing or skin, so they resolved the matter by coating the backs of the jewels in gold. Technique: changing between the way of wearing can be easily done by a screw system at the back of the jewel (see pictures).

In the Victorian era in England some necklaces were made so that the central part could be detached and worn as atiara; in Russia and England a type of necklace could in its entirety be worn as a tiara.The term originally was applied to the head-dress worn by the ancient Persians; it is now also applied to the triplecrown of the Pope.
