Antique Russian 18K Yellow Gold Rhodonite Agate and Enamel Parasol Handle

About the Item

An antique yellow gold, black and white enamel, and rhodonite agate parasol handle, comprising a handle formed of polished pink agate, with decoration in white and black enamel, with detailing in 18 karat yellow gold. This elegant antique parasol handle is a beauty to behold. The tapering handle is crafted from rhodonite (a pink agate), with beautiful swirls of colour, giving an opulent, yet natural look. This natural, Art Nouveau design style was in vogue at the time this was made. The collar of the parasol handle is ringed in yellow gold, with one reeded ring, and the other in a wreath-like design with ‘X’s. The panels on the collar have been engine turned with a wavy design, and overlaid with translucent white enamel, providing a graceful sheen. Each panel of enamel has been adorned with beautiful dendritic tendrils. A parasol can be mounted to the handle, by way of screwing it into the threaded opening as can be seen in the photos. The handle is struck with the work master’s initials of “G.Ya” and would appear to be a product of the 4th Artel. The Artels are known for their exceptional craftsmanship, and for producing beautiful items of the utmost opulence, especially enamelled pieces, and this piece was made between 1899 - 1908. The parasol handle is in wonderful condition and has obviously been cherished and well-looked after. Wear and tear acquiescent with age. The parasol handle measures 9.95cm long and 27mm wide. Gross weight: 155.74g Hallmarks: tests as 18 karat gold, marked “72” for Russian Zolotnik gold standard of 18K. Stamped with work master mark “G.Ya”, circa 1905

French 1900 Edwardian Tortoise Parasol Handle in 18kt Yellow Gold Carved Citrine
Located in Miami, FL
Edwardian parasol handle made in France. Very beautiful and elegant piece, created in Paris France during the Edwardian and Belle Epoque periods, back in the 1900. This fabulous parasol handle has been designed with French neo-classic patterns in the style of Louis XVI.

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 millegrain. Edwardian rings are works of art and best worn alone or alongside a simple wedding band...
