19th century gold and pink topaz earrings.

Everyone here knows I love the subtlety and clean lines of Art Deco design. I also sometimes love things that are the opposite of that. For example:

These are fabulous. There’s nothing restrained, simple, or geometric about them. They’re a riot of enthusiastic embellishment. I think they’re great.

These babies are English, circa 1820. They’re made from cannetille gold, which is a term that I just learned. Cannetille is a metal openwork design similar to filigree; it was very popular in the 1820’s and 1830’s, when these earrings were made. You can see in these earrings the  tendrils, scrolls, coils and granulation typical of cannetille.

These cannetille gold earrings are embellished with small white chrysolites and a number of large pink topaz stones; two oval cut stones above an three oblong stones suspended below.

I’m a lady with lots of thick, dark, wavy hair – it’s hard to find a pair of earrings to stand up to my mane. I’m pretty sure these would do the trick, though.

These Georgian earrings are currently for sale at S.J. Phillps. All images and info are thanks to S.J. Phillips.

 

Pink jewels from the Tiffany & Co. Blue Book.

The Tiffany & Co. Blue Book is out! That means that we have many new beauties to behold. Because I needed some kind of theme, we’re going to focus on pink jewels today.

I thought I’d start out the pink jewel parade with this bracelet. It looks sort of like a sunrise when it’s at that angle, don’t you think? It also reminds me somewhat of this spectacular ring, which I know you like.

Via Diamonds in the Library.This incredible piece is platinum set with diamonds and lined in rose gold. Oh yeah: and one very exceptional 74.63-carat morganite. That’s the pink beauty you’re drooling over there in the middle. Not too shabby.

While we’re at it…why not pink jewels for every finger?  I think these show a clear Art Deco influence, possibly inspired by Tiffany’s recent designs for the Great Gatsby movie (don’t worry, I’ll show you those soon).
