An Art Deco stylised bow brooch, set with cabochon tapering citrines and flanked by onyx, with a further row of diamonds tapering toward the centre, culminating in a marquise-cut diamond. The geometric arrangement highlights the sharp elegance of the bow motif, while the contrast of citrine, onyx, and diamonds creates a striking visual impact.
Bow motifs were popular in the early 20th century, symbolising elegance and refinement, and were often interpreted through the clean lines and contrasting materials of the Art Deco style. The combination of coloured stones and diamonds in platinum demonstrates the period’s interest in colour contrast, precision, and architectural balance, making this piece a refined example of American Art Deco jewellery.
Mounted in platinum.
American, circa 1920.
