This period is characterized by an eclectic revival of historical styles and the introduction of intercultural influences from the Middle East and Asia into furniture, accessories, and interior decoration. Victorian design is often seen as having succumbed to a regrettable excess of ornamentation. The Arts and Crafts movement, the Aesthetic movement, the Anglo-Japanese style, and Art Nouveau all originated at the end of the Victorian era.\n \u003cbr\u003e\n See also: Victorian\n \u003cbr\u003e\n More info on styles\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003e\n  Period\n \u003c\/b\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n circa 1900\n \u003cbr\u003e\n Events and facts from this era, poetry from this era, fashion from this era.\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003e\n  Source of inspiration\n \u003c\/b\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n Mother Nature\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003e\n  Theme\n \u003c\/b\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n flying\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003e\n  Material\n \u003c\/b\u003e\n 18K\n \u003cbr\u003e\n red gold and details in silver (tested with Touchstone)\n \u003cbr\u003e\n More information on precious metals\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003e\n  Diamonds\n \u003c\/b\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n Eighteen rose-cut diamonds and senailles.
