Transformable Art Deco Period Diamond Ruby Platinum Pendant, Clip Brooch
About the Item
Fabulous, multi-faceted jewel which may be worn as a pendant on a diamond Riviera necklace, a wide torque style necklace or suspended from a more delicate chain when turned 360 degrees, as a clip brooch, as a large stunning ring when clipped to a wide band, even as a hair ornament. Clip brooches of the Art Deco period were designed to be transformable, facilitating use in a variety of interesting ways.
The asymmetrical swirl design suggests movement and complements the flow of high quality multi-cut diamonds and rubies.
Circa 1935
A similar pair of diamond and ruby scroll clip brooches made for Cartier New York circa 1935 are illustrated in Cartier 1900-1939 by Judy Rudoe, page 281, illustration 223, Lindemann Collection, sold Christie's New York 12 April 1983, lot 291. Please note the similarity of gemstones in Cartier brooches - the same square cut rubies, baguette and Old European cut diamonds as in this piece.
Diamonds G-H, VS, 47 Old European, 6 Baguette, 2 single cut, approximately 2.5 TCW
Rubies: lively, square cut, 12, approximately 2.3 TCW, rich raspberry color, some slightly included, minor surface abrasions
Tested for platinum
37mm length on the axis, 31mm straight length , 25mm wide
Few clip brooches are suitable for use as ring ornaments, but in this piece the clip folds in such a way that the sharp points of the pins fold into the back and do not come in contact with the finger. A fun, innovative way to wear this beautiful jewel.

E. Gubelin, Lucerne
Circa 1920
In Asian mythology, the dragon represents the principle of heaven, prestige and power. It is associated with the Chinese Imperial family. Some of the finest jewels of the Art Deco period were influenced by exotic Asian motifs which included mythical creature motifs, symmetry and balance.

The open-work case of the pendant lapel watch features approximately 1.50 TCW of full-cut and single-cut diamonds with black enamel accents, suspended from a horizontal diamond bar brooch. The back reveals a watch with Arabic numerals, pearl white dial, black enamel birds in flight amidst stylized clouds and a dynamic black enamel dragon. Mounted in platinum.
