Style specifics
The Grand Victorian Period - 专家将维多利亚女王的统治期（1837-1901）分为大约各20年的三个阶段：浪漫维多利亚时期（1837-1860）、宏伟维多利亚时期（1860-1880）以及晚期或美学维多利亚时期（1880-1901）。

We consider this to be of the Grand Victorian Period.

This second Victorian period is famous for its ostentatious pieces set with pearls and diamonds (from South Africa). From ca. 1850 wealthy English had reported about jewelry from India and Japan, which heavily inspired the jewelers of this period. This period also corresponds with the death of Queen Victoria's husband King Albert making mourning jewelry (set with heavy dark stones) the type of jewelry specific for this period.
