The Art Deco era is famous for being the “Gatsby” or “Roaring Twenties” era. A lot of gorgeous and timeless designs in jewelry came out of this period. Jewelry from this period was most often crafted between 1920 and 1940. Art Deco jewelry sometimes featured white gold or platinum, geometric designs, European cut diamonds, filigree, and calibre cut stones that are specifically cut to fit the design of the piece. During the Art Deco period jewelers often made jewelry upon custom order, this would often take weeks to months to completely craft by hand. Carnelian is a beautiful form of chalcedony gemstone that has been used to create jewelry for nearly 5000 years. It is an opaque-looking stone that ranges in red hues from pale orange to an intense, almost black blood red. Called the stone of kings, carnelian was well suited to carving, and would often be used in seal rings by the great ancient civilizations.

Stunning Antique 1830s German 800 Silver, Amethyst & Turquoise Sewing Chatelaine. This stunning piece was hand made in the 1830s in Germany and features a filigree 800 Silver arrow adorned with Turquoise cabochons suspended on a belt loop in the shape of a maritime symbol with a cross and anchor going through a heart with an Amethyst at its center. The arrow opens in the middle to store sewing needles. Chatelaines were commonly worn on the belt in Central Europe in the early 19th Century as both adornment and practical items. The arrow measures 5 1/8 long; the belt loop measures 1 13/16 long and total weight is 24.1 grams. Excellent condition with minor tarnishing according to age that could be polished away. It is missing a gemstone – probably another Amethyst – at the rear end of the arrow which could be easily replaced. Incredibly rare and unusual piece!
