  This striking Art Nouveau pendant from circa 1900, crafted in 18K yellow gold, displays the movement’s characteristic flowing design and natural motifs. At the heart of the pendant lies a cabochon sapphire, flanked by two senailles (diamonds)and two delicate seed pearls. A rare Mississippi dogtooth pearl gracefully dangles below, enhancing the pendant's organic lines. Inspired by the iconic whiplash curves of Art Nouveau, this piece embodies the aesthetic and romantic spirit of theera, offering both a connection to nature and a sense of refined beauty.

  Style
  Edwardian - The Edwardian era or Edwardian period in the United Kingdom is the period covering the reign of King Edward VII, 1901 to 1910. The death of Queen Victoria in January 1901 and the succession of her son, Edward, marked the start of a newcentury and the end of the Victorian era. While Victoria had shunned society, Edward was the leader of a fashionable elite which set a style influenced by the art and fashions of continental Europe—perhaps because of the King's fondness for travel. Theera was marked by significant shifts in politics as sections of society which had been largely excluded from wielding power in the past, such as common labourers and women, became increasingly politicised.

  Style specifics
  Art Nouveau - Although Art Nouveau took on distinctly localised tendencies as its geographic spread increase some general characteristics are indicative of the form. A description published in Pan magazine of Hermann Obrist's wall-hanging Cyclamen(1894) described it as "sudden violent curves generated by the crack of a whip", which became well known during the early spread of Art Nouveau.
  
  Subsequently, not only did the work itself become better known as The Whiplash, but the term "whiplash" is frequently applied to the characteristic curves employed by Art Nouveau artists. Such decorative "whiplash" motifs, formed by dynamic,undulating, and flowing lines in a syncopated rhythm, are found throughout the architecture, painting, sculpture, and other forms of Art Nouveau design.(from: Wikipedia)

  Extra information
  Dogtooth pearls are irregularly shaped freshwater pearls, often found in the Mississippi River. These pearls typically take on elongated or tooth-like forms, making them distinct from the more common round pearls. Known for their organic appearance,these pearls develop naturally inside river mollusks, resulting in unique shapes that reflect the natural conditions in which they are formed.
