About the Item

An Edwardian single glass lorgnette-monocle pendant. This is a beautiful single-lens lorgnette-monocle "loupe" created in America during the Edwardian and the Belle Epoque period, back in the 1900. The lorgnette was crafted in solid yellow gold of 18 karats with accents in platinum for the settings of the diamonds. Embellished with applications of black enamel and mount with approximate of one-hundred-twenty European rose cuts diamonds. This single lens lorgnette has great appeal and can be wear as is in a chain, used as a loupe or just with your eye prescription. Fitted with an oval ring to wear in a chain. The Edwardian Era Like the Georgian and Victorian eras before it, derives its name from the reign of the English King, Edward VII (1901-1910). Edwardian jewelry is known for representing femininity while incorporating a lot of the color white. Think diamonds, pearls and white metals like platinum and white gold. Diamonds often had an Old Mine or European cut and sapphires were a popular choice for a pop of color. They tended to be made from platinum and diamonds – the more, the merrier – and used fashionable, intricate techniques such as filigree and millgrain. Edwardian rings are works of art and best worn alone or alongside a simple wedding band. Mille graining, a new decorative technique made possible by the use of platinum, is featured often on Edwardian jewelry. Its border of delicate balls and ridges surrounding a gemstone or on the knife sharp edges of a design served to give jewelry a softer, lighter look. Country: United States, England. Period: Edwardian, Belle Epoque, 1900. Diamonds: Mount in flush settings, with approximate 120 European rose cuts diamonds, 0.60 carats. Weight: 20.2 Grams, (12.95 Dwt).
