The Belle Époque encompassed three jewelry design periods: Art Nouveau, the Arts and Crafts movement, and Edwardian. The “Beautiful Era” was a time of increasing wealth and flourishing arts. When cinema boomed, movie stars, instead of European royalty, became trendsetters. As a result, Hollywood (and America) emerged as the ones to watch.
The jewelry of this era was fashioned with pale-colored gemstones, like pearls and diamonds, into lavish necklaces, rings, tiaras, and earrings. Platinum also replaced heavier silver mountings, allowing gemstones to appear in delicate-yet-strong mountings that provided optimum light, airiness, and natural beauty.
Some jewels, however, were focused on diamonds and their new-found best friend, platinu. This stunning dinner necklace featuring a central pearl suspended from a diamond lariat, surrounded by sparkling diamonds - .38ct total weight! A stand-out lariat for any night look and classic addition to any collection. On a platinum chain no less!
