Edwardian, Platinum, Diamond, Ruby and Emerald Giardinetto Pendant, circa 1910

About the Item

A beautiful platinum and multi-gem set giardinetto pendant c.1910, the pendant designed as a long tapering openwork basket with rope twist handle finely crafted in platinum and set throughout with old-cut diamonds, filled with a generous bouquet of flowers set with rubies, emeralds and diamonds in 18ct gold and platinum with millegrain edge details, all suspended from a ribbon loop tied in a bow, beneath the basket hangs a single pear shaped diamond in millegrained bezel setting, all from a later 18” platinum trace chain. The word giardinetto means ‘little garden’ in Italian and is used to describe jewels such as this with vases or baskets containing flowers. Rings in this style were particularly popular during the Georgian period whilst brooches and pendants dominated the Edwardian period’s interpretation of this design. This is a wonderful example of its type, delicate and elegant with a lightness of touch and naturalistic feel.

Gattle &Co. might not be a well known name today but during the first decades of the 20th Century they produced jewellery that rivalled some of the best names in American jewellery at that time such as Tiffany & Co., Marcus & Co. and Raymond Yard. Emanuel Gattle was born in Plattsburg in the far north of New York State in 1858 and left home for the bright lights of the city at just 19. Four years later he opened his eponymous jewellery store at the corner of Broadway and 27th Street. Little information or jewels from his early years survives but he was obviously successful and moved premises to 5th Avenue in 1900. It is his Edwardian and Art Deco jewellery that cemented his reputation and as one of New York’s finest jewellers. Images from the company’s catalogues of ‘The Gattle Building’ show a very large and impressive premises and the pictures of jewels that fill the catalogues pages illustrate a huge range of designs and styles. The Gattle Book from 1914 talks about their re-modelling services for your “old fashioned and discarded pieces of jewellery” and advises clients to send in lists of the pieces they no longer wear in order for Gattle to recommend ways to re-use the stones in more contemporary designs. They go on to state "we import our own gems, design our own mountings, and Gattle Jewelry is developed under the supervision of our own experts." Innovative designs, quality gems and materials and excellent craftsmanship combine to create exceptional pieces. Jewels such as Art Deco wide strap bracelets set with substantial diamonds and emeralds, diamond and jade bracelets, coloured stone rings...
