全部拍賣 / Jewelry & Gems / Crescent Moon with Natural Pearls & Rubies from Burma, c. 1900


"A Crescent Brooch or Pin, as they are not unusually called, is always a desirable gift, and a decided acquisition to milady's jewel box. It matters not how numerous the variety in other brooches, one must have a crescent effect numbered as among the jewelled treasures." Loosely translated: A crescent moon brooch is always a desirable gift and a definite addition to a lady's jewelry box. No matter how great the variety of other brooches, there must be a crescent among the jeweled treasures! This was already known in a jewelry catalog published by the Toronto jeweler Kent in 1904: crescent moons have been one of the most desirable motifs among brooches since the late 19th century. However, tastes changed with the times: while the moons of the 19th century were often set with diamonds in silver settings, they became more delicate and refined after the turn of the century and pearls and colored stones enjoyed great popularity. Here, in this elegant moon, we see fine, natural pearls graduated alongside untreated rubies from Burma. This piece of jewellery came to us from Dresden and impresses with its exquisite materials.
