NecklaceDescription
Gold ornate chain with purple accent stones, and an oval shaped pendant with a lavender cabochon cut stone at center, and small hanging flowers and purple stones at the bottom of the pendant.
During the Arts & Crafts movement (1860-1915), jewelers rejected the mass production of jewelry by focusing on making unique handmade pieces of jewelry. Arts & Crafts jewelry often used stones that were smoothed and polished, called cabochons, instead of faceted stones that are common today. This style of jewelry prioritized designs that were personal, very detailed, and hard to copy. Arts & Crafts jewelry often included natural shapes like flowers, leaves, and vines, as well as some geometric patterns.
