Antique Edwardian Era 18k Gold Platinum Diamond Ribbon Bows Brooch Pendant
Located in Versailles, FR
Characterized by a lightness and delicacy, this beautiful 18K gold and platinum pendant brooch is perfect example of the jewelry from the early 20th century, the Edwardian / Belle Epoque era. We love the fluidity of its lines but also the more sophisticated design incorporated the ribbon bows and garlands.
The pendant brooch is entirely decorated with sparkling white diamonds in rose-cut style. The settings have very delicate millegrain decoration around its contour. Platinum, with its rigid characteristics, made such delicate yet strong design possible.
The jewelry has the pin to be worn as a brooch but also two small attaches on the back to pass through a chain so you can wear it as a pendant.
For a historical jewelry that radiates pure romance and promises to stand the test of time, you can't go wrong with this beautiful Edwardian diamond pendant brooch...

This is an old watch chain that long ago got separated from its watch. We added a dog (aka swivel) clip and now it's just as moderne and versatile as can be at 21" long and 3.5mm wide.
This link style - a twisted oval girding a decorative ridged barrel -- was popular in the early 1900s, but it's impossible to nail down a date because we don't have a maker's mark. The end loop is stamped -- you can just make out the "14K" -- but the maker's mark is worn down.

We are fortunate to know much of the world’s long and dazzling history of necklaces, as this type of jewelry was so treasured that it was frequently buried with its owners.
Lapis lazuli beads adorned necklaces unearthed from the royal graves at the ancient Iraqi civilization of Sumer, while the excavation of King Tut’s burial chamber revealed a sense of style that led to a frenzy of Art Deco designs, with artisans of the 1920s seeking to emulate the elegant work crafted by Ancient Egypt’s goldsmiths and jewelry makers.
In ancient times, pendant necklaces worn by royalty and nobles conferred wealth and prestige. Today, wearing jewelry is about personal expression: Luxury diamond necklaces exude confidence and can symbolize the celebratory nature of a deep romantic relationship, while paper-clip chain-link necklaces designed by the likes of goldsmith Faye Kim are firmly planted in the past as well as the present. Kim works exclusively with eco-friendly gold, and these fashionable, fun accessories owe to the design of 19th-century watch fobs.
For some, necklaces are thought of as being a solely feminine piece, but this widely loved accessory has been gender-neutral for eons. In fact, just as women rarely took to wearing a single necklace during the Renaissance, men of the era layered chains and valuable pendants atop their bejeweled clothing. In modern times, the free-spirited hippie and counterculture movements of the 1960s saw costume-jewelry designers celebrating self-expression through colorful multistrand necklaces and no shortage of beads, which were worn by anyone and everyone.
Even after all of these years, the necklace remains an irrefutable staple of any complete outfit. Although new trends in jewelry are constantly emerging, the glamour and beauty of the past continue to inform modern styles and designs. In a way, the cyclical history of the necklace differs little from its familiar looped form: The celebrated French jewelry house Van Cleef & Arpels found much inspiration in King Tut, and, now, their Alhambra collection is a go-to for modern royals. Vintage necklaces designed by David Webb — whose work landed him on the cover of Vogue in 1950, two years after opening his Manhattan shop — were likely inspired by the ornamental styles of ancient Greece, Mesopotamia and Egypt.
