EMERALD AND DIAMOND DEMI-PARURE | 祖母綠 配 鑽石 手鏈 及 耳墜套裝

Peranakan jewelry, with roots in the Straits Chinese communities of Southeast Asia, reflects a rich blend of Chinese, Malay, and European influences that flourished during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Traditionally crafted in high-karat gold and often embellished with vibrant gemstones such as diamonds, rubies, and emeralds, these pieces were both symbols of wealth and treasured heirlooms marking significant family occasions. Characterized by intricate filigree and floral motifs, Peranakan jewelry is celebrated for its delicate artistry and cultural significance. Lots 1784 and 1785 presented here stand as contemporary interpretations of this tradition - retaining the elegance and fine craftsmanship of their historical counterparts while offering a modern expression of Peranakan design.
