Art Deco Barrette Brooch With Fine Pearls And Old-cut Diamonds On Platinum

This "barrette" brooch is sober, refined and refined, in keeping with the design of its Art Deco era. It is, as required by the era, in platinum (dog's head and mascaron head hallmarks). It soberly highlights a material that has become rare, particularly sought after in these dimensions: the fine pearl, a natural pearl, formed spontaneously, without human intervention. These pearls are therefore endowed with a particularly lively orient, while offering subtle nuances of color (bluish, golden, pinkish, etc.). Thus arranged in a line, they therefore highlight each other with a subtle contrasting effect. These pearls are highlighted by a border of finely grain-set diamonds, within a delicately beaded setting. These diamonds, usually rose-cut in these dimensions on Art Deco jewelry, present here an old, more elaborate cut, rare in these dimensions. This detail goes in the direction of a high quality of execution of the jewel, corroborated by an inventory number engraved on the brooch, sign of the manufacture by a large workshop. Its pin is protected by a judiciously elaborate cover, and its closure is secured by a sort of folding racket. Once the racket is positioned, the pin cannot be dislodged nor the brooch open. A brooch with a particularly careful craftsmanship serving rare and prestigious materials.
