The Flickr Brilliantcutdiamonds Image Generatr

Made by a high end London jeweller, this Art Deco stick pin for a gentleman’s lapel, tie or cravat was the height of fashion in 1925 when it was created, and it wouldn’t look out of place in today’s modern world. It features eight large and sparking square cut sapphires and four small brilliant cut diamonds, set in a platinum mount.

This year the FFF+ Group have decided to have a weekly challenge called “Snap Happy”. A different theme chosen by a member of the group each week, and the image is to be posted on the Monday of the week.

This week the theme, “I spy with my little eye, something beginning with an S” was chosen by Laszlo, Laszlo Papinot.

This stick pin featuring sapphires seemed to fit the bill quite nicely.

Having been made it the middle years of the roaring 20s, it has a definite geometric design of the Art Deco movement.

Edwardian jewellery is renowned for its delicate, beautifully crafted designs. In contrast to Victorian jewellery, many pieces were made in a very feminine fashion, using finer smaller stones and very light settings made possible by using platinum.

Two years after receiving a Christmas gift of a Van Cleef and Arpels broach www.flickr.com/photos/40262251@N03/6553838443, this diamond and sapphire ring appeared under the tree in a small Prussian blue leather box on Christmas Day in 1921 for a very special person.

Purchased from a jeweller in Vienna it is made of 18 carat yellow gold and features four small brilliant cut diamonds, two square cut and two triangular shaped sapphires and a very large brilliant cut diamond, set in a platinum mount.

Made by French jewellers Van Cleef and Arpels, this beautiful late Edwardian openwork broach was purchased as a Christmas gift in Paris in 1919. With a base of 18 carat yellow gold, it contains 24 rose cut diamonds, three brilliant cut diamonds and eight oriental pearls on a platinum mount. It still has its original 18 carat yellow gold catch and stick.

Having been made just after the Great War (1914 - 1918) it is in the transitional period of design between Art Nouveau and Art Deco, but has tendancies towards the latter.

Similar to one of our other cushion cut sapphire designs, but, as ever, subtely different. This ring just came back for a tune-up and clean.
