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 intercultural influences from the Middle East and Asia in furniture, accessories, and interior decoration. Victorian design is widely perceived as having displayed a regrettable excess of ornamentation. The Arts and Crafts movement, the aesthetic movement, the Anglo-Japanese style, and Art Nouveau all find their origins at the end of the Victorian era.

Style specifics
The Grand 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 to be the Grand Victorian Period.
This second Victorian period is famous for its sumptuous pieces set with pearls and diamonds (from South Africa). From around 1850, wealthy English people brought back jewelry from India and Japan, which greatly inspired the jewelers of that time. This period also corresponds to the death of King Albert, husband of Queen Victoria, which made mourning jewelry (set with heavy dark stones) the specific type of jewelry of this era.
