From a central natural cornflower blue sapphire of 3.65 carats, two diamond scrolls in platinum spring forth on an 18-carat rose gold gallery and serve as a base for a rare round natural white pearl. From these scrolls emerge two rows of diamonds connected by another natural cornflower blue sapphire, leading to a natural drop-shaped pearl topped with a diamond. As the four most precious gemstones come with a certificate, this Belle Époque stylized diamond garland, adorned with a pearl and a heart-shaped sapphire, has proven to turn every day into an exceptional feast.

Belle Époque - The Belle Époque is a period of European social history that began at the end of the 19th century and lasted until the First World War. Taking place during the time of the French Third Republic and the German Empire, the "Belle Époque" was named retrospectively, when it began to be regarded as a "golden age." The great European powers and new technologies improved life, and the commercial arts adapted Renaissance and 18th-century styles to modern forms. In the United States, newly wealthy and emerging from the Panic of 1873, this comparable era was dubbed the Gilded Age. In the United Kingdom, this period overlaps the end of what is called the Victorian era and the period known as the Edwardian era.

Style specifics
The Belle Époque (in French “Belle Époque”) is a period of European social history that began at the end of the 19th century with the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871) and lasted until the First World War (1914-1918).
Taking place during the era of the French Third Republic and the German Empire, the “Belle Époque” was named retrospectively, when it began to be considered a “golden age”: the great European powers, new technologies improved life, and commercial arts adapted Renaissance and 18th-century styles to modern forms.
In the newly wealthy United States, after the panic of 1873, this comparable era was called the “Gilded Age.” In the United Kingdom, this period coincides with the end of the Victorian era and the so-called “Edwardian era.”
During the Belle Époque, coal and cheap labor contributed to the orchid craze and enabled the perfection of fruits grown under glass, while the apparatus of State dinners extended to the upper classes; champagne was perfected during the Belle Époque. Exotic feathers and furs played a more important role than ever in fashion, haute couture having been invented in Paris, the center of the Belle Époque, where fashion began to evolve according to an annual cycle; in Paris, restaurants such as Maxim's reached new splendor and prestige by becoming parade venues for the rich, and the Opéra Garnier devoted enormous spaces to staircases, similar places of spectacle.
After the mid-century, railways connected all the major cities of Europe to spa towns such as Biarritz and Deauville; their carriages were strictly divided into first and second class, but the wealthiest began to order private carriages, exclusivity being the hallmark of opulent luxury. The bohemian lifestyle acquired a different glamour, practiced in the cabarets of Montmartre.
