Country of origin: unknown Style: Victorian Style specifics: The Late or Aesthetic Victorian Period Period: ca. 1890 Source of inspiration: Mother Nature Theme: Snakes and serpents - Serpent is a word of Latin origin (from serpens, serpentis "something that creeps, snake", deriving from the greek word "erpo" and "erpeto", crawl and serpent) that is commonly used in a specifically mythic or religious context, signifying a snake that is to be regarded not as a mundane natural phenomenon nor as an object of scientific zoology, but as the bearer of some potent symbolic value. The serpent is one of the oldest and most widespread mythological symbols. Considerable overlap exists in the symbolic values that serpents represent in various cultures. Some such overlap is due to the common historical ancestry of contemporary symbols. Much of the overlap, however, is traceable to the common biological characteristics of snakes. In some instances, serpents serve as positive symbols with whom it is possible to identify or to sympathize; in other instances, serpents serve as negative symbols, representing opponents or antagonists of figures or principles with which it is possible to identify. Serpents also appear as ambivalent figures, neither wholly positive nor wholly negative in valence. An example of a serpent used as a positive symbol is Mucalinda, the king of snakes who shielded the Buddha from the elements as the Buddha sat in meditation. An example of a serpent used as a negative symbol is the snake who tempted Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, as described in the Book of Genesis. Material: 18K yellow gold (touchstone tested) Technique: This jewel features a filigree decoration, which is in fact thin gold wire twisted into refined motifs, in this case elegant little balls. You can also notice the use of granulation on this piece. Granulation is a technique where the goldsmith uses very small balls (granules) of metal, which are not soldered to the piece but welded. Both techniques demand very high skills and precision from the maker. Diamond(s): One pear shaped rose cut diamond . We do not have the weight of this diamond which is normal in our trade when it comes to rose cuts. - All diamond weights, color grades and clarity are approximate since stones are not removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. - We have all diamonds screened by the IJGC-lab for whether they are natural or synthetic, and all diamonds in this jewel are 100% guaranteed to be natural! Precious stones: Two ruby. We did not check if the ruby is lab produced or not as this information has no influence on the value of this jewel. Natural rubies and lab produced rubies were both used in this era, rather more for their effect than for their intrinsic value. Birthstones: Diamond is the birthstone (or month stone) for April and ruby for July. Hallmarks: No trace. Dimensions: inner circumference 18,70 cm (7,36 inch) Weight: 25,30 gram (16,27 dwt) Reference Nº: 19106-0151 - Copyright photography: Adin, fine antique jewelry - The jewelry on our pictures is NOT Photoshopped - Comes with certificate
