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

Style specifics
The late Victorian or Aesthetic 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 late Victorian or Aesthetic period.
Jewelry of this era evolved, moving from heavy pieces to smaller and more romantic ones, often with whimsical motifs. Jewelers used diamonds and brilliant gemstones to create refined and elaborate feminine pieces.
