Style
Victorian - Victorian decorative arts refer to the style of decorative arts from the Victorian era. This era is known for its eclectic revival and interpretation of historical styles, as well as the introduction of cross-cultural influences from the Middle East and Asia in furniture, accessories, and interior decoration. Victorian design is widely regarded as having shown a regrettable excess of ornamentation. The Arts and Crafts movement, the Aesthetic movement, the Anglo-Japanese style, and Art Nouveau all have their origins at the end of the Victorian era.

Style specifics
The Romantic Victorian period - Experts divide the reign of Queen Victoria, also called the Victorian era (1837 - 1901), into three periods of about twenty years each: the Romantic Victorian period (1837 - 1860), the Grand Victorian period (1860 - 1880), and the Late or Aesthetic Victorian period (1880 - 1901).
We consider this period as belonging to the Romantic Victorian period. This period covers the coronation of Victoria as queen of Great Britain and Ireland, her marriage to King Albert, their love and devotion to their marriage and their country, sources of inspiration. Jewelry from this period is made with intricate carvings, special techniques where enamel is subtly worked. These techniques allowed the jewelry to have a certain opulence with less precious metal. At the time, precious metals were very rare. The most prized (semi-)precious stones at the time were amethyst, coral, garnets, cultured pearls, and turquoise. The connotation is obviously sentimental, symbolic, and romantic, with motifs reminiscent of Gothic and/or Renaissance styles, and abundant use of motifs such as anchors, birds, branches, crosses, hearts, and snakes.
