Exceptional Georgian Berlin Iron Link Necklace
Located in Narberth, PA
Berlin iron jewelry was produced in Germany by the Berlin Royal Foundry beginning in 1804. Previously, iron jewelry had primarily been worn in periods of mourning due to its dark color. However, it reached a high point of popularity between 1813 and 1819. To fund the War of Liberation against Napolean, citizens were asked to donate their precious gold in exchange for iron jewelry, which was sometimes inscribed with a portrait of Frederick William III of Prussia or the words "Gold gab ich für Eisen...

Saint Cecelia Chatelaine Pendant by Froment-Meurice, French, circa 1850
Located in London, GB
Saint Cecelia chatelaine pendant by Froment-Meurice. A gold and silver pendant in the Renaissance Revival style, the main element composed of an ornately carved openwork architectural structure in the form of an altarpiece, the central niche surmounted by a cupola set with pearls, with scroll and scalloped details to the interior and suspending a fleur-de-lis, containing a figure of Saint Cecelia playing a viola da gamba with two dancing putti to either side, flanked by two smaller raised pedestals issuing fleur-de-lis, each set with a putto (one playing a harp, the other playing a triangle), suspending a double swagged gold chain set with pearls, with two further chains suspending on one side a circular lapis lazuli seal in a trumpet form mount and on the other a watch winder, the whole accented with blue enamel and set to the reverse with a hinged band loop, approximately 9.5cm in total length. Tested yellow gold and silver, French, circa 1850.
François Désiré Froment-Meurice (1802-1855) was one of the most important French jewellery and silversmiths of the nineteenth century, described by Victor Hugo as the Cellini of his age. He exhibited in a number of International Exhibitions, where Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were among his clients. The Renaissance Revival, as seen here, and the Gothic Revival were his two major decorative styles. This piece is also typical of his penchant for placing a silver figure, usually female, within a yellow gold architectural mount. The central figure and flanking putti are identical to those found on two brooches by Froment-Meurice, one in the Birmingham Museum and one in the Schmuckmuseum Pforzheim. Another brooch by Froment-Meurice, in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, features a similar central figure, but this time as an angel with wings, in a silver oval blue enamelled frame. These examples also bear a similar gold and blue enamel architectural mount, and differ only in the surrounding and pendulant embellishments.
Saint Cecelia is the patroness of music, whose feast day is celebrated each November. A Roman maiden, she was amongst the earliest and most famous of the Roman martyrs, reputedly beheaded in 230 AD under the Emperor Alexander Severus. Throughout history, Saint Cecelia has inspired musicians and poets alike, appearing in John Dryden...

Antique 19th Century Burma Ruby 7 Carat Diamond Pendant
Located in Chicago, IL
Circa 1870
A very fine example of high Victorian era jewelry, this silver topped 14K gold (front- silver, back – gold) pendant is designed as a flower head centered with a natural untreated Burmese ruby of a pinkish purplish red color framed by chunky old mine cut diamonds. The principal eight diamonds, which surround the ruby, are top quality bright white stones. Such excellent quality old cut diamonds are rarely seen in antique jewelry. The diamonds are bright white and very sparkly.
The ruby measures 9.28 x 7.94 x 2.22 mm and is approximately 1.31 ct.
The two antique cushion cut diamonds at 12 and 6 o’clock are approximately 1.28 ct (6.22 x 5.75 x 4.5 mm, G color, VS2 clarity) and 1.32 ct (6.18 x 6.14 x 4.4 mm, G color, VS1 clarity). The six smaller diamonds around the ruby are approximately 0.51 ct, 0.48 ct, 0.46 ct, 0.48 ct, 0.52 ct, and 0.44 ct (F-G-H color, VS2 – SI1 clarity).
Estimated total diamond weight is 7.18 ct.
The pendant is 28 mm (1 1/8 in.) long and 23 mm (7/8 in.) wide.
