墜飾 - 18 克拉 黃金 - 鉆石 - Cross, Diamond, 1750

这件华美的18世纪吊坠十字坠饰，起源很可能在法国或比利时，是洛可可艺术的极佳代表。它以18K黄金铸成，约可追溯到1750年左右，当时洛可可风格因其华丽而富有趣味的设计而繁荣。本坠饰镶嵌有十颗玫瑰切割钻石与 senailles，采用箔面镶嵌以增强光泽——这是该时代的典型工艺。十字象征着神性与尘世，体现其基督教灵感。这件作品不仅是一件宗教圣物，也见证了洛可可时期的精湛工艺。

Style
Rococo - Rococo（较少使用 roccoco）也称为“晚期巴洛克”，是18世纪的一种风格，源于巴洛克艺术家放弃对称性，变得日益华丽、浮夸与俏皮。洛可可房间被设计为完整的艺术作品，优雅而华丽的家具、小型雕塑、装饰性镜子和壁毯与建筑、浮雕及壁画相辅相成。它在很大程度上被新古典主义取代。1835年的法兰西学院词典指出，洛可可一词“通常涵盖与路易十五时期及路易十六初期相关的那种装饰、风格和设计”。因此它包括18世纪中叶在法国所创作的所有类型艺术。另见：Rococo

- Antique and vintage jewellery often undergoes thoughtful refurbishment, remodelling, or repairs to enhance its longevity and wearability. Such pieces frequently bear marks of this tender care. Furthermore, we present our antique and vintage jewellery in its authentic state, refraining from removing scratches or applying rhodium plating to white gold items. Our priority is to preserve the genuine allure and history of each piece. However, as the new owner, you have the option to take it to a local goldsmith for a cosmetic refresh, should you choose.
