If ever a jewel captured the spirit of a movement, it is this one, alive with the colors of change, of courage, of women stepping forward to reshape their world. In the curling, vine-like tendrils of its Art Nouveau form, you can almost feel the breath of a new century; in the vivid green peridots, the hope of renewal; and in the rubies, the steady pulse of conviction. This is a piece that could have danced on the silk bodice of a woman attending a salon filled with ideas deemed too bold for polite society, an ornament as graceful as a flower, yet carrying the unmistakable electricity of purpose.

Hand crafted around 1910 in 15 karat gold with platinum-set diamonds, this pendant also converts seamlessly into a brooch. It features two exceptional peridots: a bright 2 carat cushion cut at the center (8.5 x 7.1 x 4 mm) and a 2.34-carat pear-shaped drop (12 x 6.5 x 5 mm). These are framed by 41 diamonds—19 old European cuts totaling .54 carats and 22 rose cuts totaling .22 carats, and accented with seven vivid rubies adding up to .24 carats. The piece measures 50 mm long, 29.6 mm across, and 7.5 mm deep, weighing 6.1 grams. It bears no hallmarks, but its craftsmanship speaks unmistakably to its era.

Wear it when you want to hold a little history at your heart: a jewel born from beauty but strengthened by resolve, radiating the same bright certainty that once powered women marching forward into the century ahead.
