This bar brooch, crafted by the Dutch firm Gebroeders Rozendaal sometime between 1914 and 1920, is a stunning example of Art Deco jewelry. The brooch features a central oval-shaped diamond surrounded by smaller diamonds, set in a delicate platinum and gold design. The minimalist form and geometric patterns characteristic of the Art Deco style are beautifully showcased in this piece. It exemplifies the trend of incorporating precious metals and gemstones in the early 20th century.
Comments
In the early 20th century, the Dutch market for luxury goods was dominated by a few large companies. Jan and Dirk Rozendaal specialized in diamonds. The sober shapes of their jewels showed the quality and number of the stones to best advantage. This restrained luxury appealed to a Dutch audience. This bar brooch was sold by Steltman, a leading Hague jeweller.
