  • A proposito di opere d'arte

    A radiant necklace from the Southern Netherlands, circa 1820, crafted in 18K yellow gold with fine filigree and granulation work. The design showcases fourteen oval citrines, their honeyed glow framed by delicate scrolls of gold wire. Both Georgian andearly Victorian in spirit, this jewel reflects the transition of taste between eras, blending opulence with refined lace-like artistry. The cornucopia hallmark affirms its regional origin, while its generous proportions and luminous stones evoke theelegance of early 19th-century fashion. A jewel of distinction, still in very good condition, offering a timeless glimpse of its age.

    Technique
    Granulation is a technique where the goldsmith uses very small balls (granules) of metal, which are not soldered to the piece but welded. This technique demand very high skills and precision from the maker. And filigree (formerly written filigrann orfiligrane) which is a delicate kind of jewel work made with twisted threads usually of gold and silver or stitching of the same curving motifs. It often suggests lace and French from 1660 to the late 19th century. It should not be confused with ajourejewellery work; while both have many open areas, filigree involves threads being soldered together to form an object and ajoure involves holes being punched, drilled, or cut through an existing piece of metal.
