Art nouveau enameled convertible flower brooch.
Beautiful convertible pendant-brooch in the shape of a five-petals wild rose flower, created in New Jersey North America during the Art Nouveau periods, back in the 1910.

Edwardian Jewelry

Edwardian-era rings tend to be larger, opulent pieces, and stacked ring designs were popular. The metal surfaces of the rings were often diamond-encrusted for additional shimmer. Each of these rings is a work of art, showcasing a bygone era of grace, elegance and the royalty the Edwardian era is named for.
