J. M. Badollet
Co.
The Badollet were a family of excellent Swiss watchmakers through several generations, from the 17th century until the 20th century. A branch worked in Paris from 1712 to 1872, there were also branches in England and a Paul Badollet worked in New York around 1798. Jean Jacques Badollet (1756-1829) founded the company J. J. Badollet
Cie in Geneva in 1779. From 1828 to 1854, Jean Moise Badollet (1811-1854) was the sole owner and the company initially operated under the name "J. M. Badollet", and from 1837 under "J.M. Badollet
Cie". This name remained even after Jean Moise death: his successor was called Jean Marc Badollet. Around 1890 the company name was changed back to "J. J. Badollet". The “Charmilles” pocket watch based on Potter patents was manufactured during this time. This venture failed in 1895 and the company was liquidated in 1896. Another year later, Colomb
Balmer took over the Geneva facilities and also retained the J.J. trademarks. Badollet. Then members of the Badollet family seem to have played a role again, as Gustave Badollet (1855-1924) was the last of the clan to run the company. In 1923 the name was "Geneva Watch Co., Successor to J.J. Badollet, micrometers" and the factory continued to operate under this name two years later. As a note Badollet made watches under their own name, and are also known to have made watches for Edward Dent (one of the finest English watchmakers of his day) to Dent's specifications, under Dent's name. In the 1840s Badollet actually opened a workshop in Soho, London for the purpose of making watches for Dent. By the 1870s, the company was renowned for its high-end products and received several awards from the Geneva Observatory and the “Société des Arts”, as well as in the international exhibitions in Vienna (1873) and Chicago in 1893. The firm won the first three Geneva timing competitions and continued its path and became the face of ultimate Swiss watchmaking, particularly Genevan throughout the world.

The Edwardian era
Like the Georgian and Victorian eras before it, derives its name from the reign of the English King, Edward VII (1901-1910). Edwardian jewelry is known for representing femininity while incorporating a lot of the color white. Think diamonds, pearls and white metals like platinum and white gold. Diamonds often had an Old Mine or European cut and sapphires were a popular choice for a pop of color. They tended to be made from platinum and diamonds – the more, the merrier – and used fashionable, intricate techniques such as filigree and millegrain. Edwardian rings are works of art and best worn alone or alongside a simple wedding band. Mill graining, a new decorative technique made possible by the use of platinum, is featured often on Edwardian jewelry. Its border of delicate balls and ridges surrounding a gemstone or on the knife sharp edges of a design served to give jewelry a softer, lighter look.
Guilloché
This technique is used in fine jewelry to enhance the appearance of brooches, rings and pendants. Guilloché enamel refers to metal pieces that have been given the Guilloché treatment and then covered with a translucent layer of enamel, giving the geometric patterns underneath the enamel a colorful hue.
