AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

18 karat yellow gold antique cross pendant from the late Baroque period (ca. 1700–1720). The pendant is adorned with eight rose-cut diamonds set in dense rub-settings. The pendant is three-dimensionally shaped and features chased (ciselé) details.

The Baroque style (c. 1600-1750) originated in Italy as part of the Counter-Reformation, a Catholic response to the simplicity and austerity of Lutheran Protestantism. The aim of the Baroque style was to evoke a sense of awe, and it is characterized by lively forms, shadow contrasts, exuberant details, and overall grandeur.
