It came to us as a necklace, with the original removable back chain fitting, which suggested to us that it was always intended to be a tiara so we asked our workshop to make a frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFontana, one of the most famous jewellery houses in Paris, in the late 19th and early 20th Century, was founded by a Swiss jeweller, Thomas Fontana (1813-1861). He opened a modest workshop in an arcade inside the Galerie Beaujolais, near the Palais Royale, with his first store front in the Palais Royal opening in 1840. His reputation for fine quality work soon spread and business flourished meaning that he was able to expand his premises and eventually take over the entire building. Further stores were opened in Arcades across the city.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWhen Thomas died, in 1861, his son Charles was not old enough to assume leadership of the firm so control passed to his nephew, Joseph Fontana and nephew by marriage, Alexandre Templier.  They exhibited at the 1867 Paris Exposition Universelle, where they showcased a wide range of pieces including a series of unusual jewels, in the Chinese style, decorated with enamelled gods and goddesses, sumptuously dressed and hung with tiny platinum bells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThomas’ son Charles came of age in 1867 and entered the business. He assumed management four years later, in 1871, re-naming the firm Ch. Fontana et Cie. He continued to work alongside his cousins for another ten years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIn 1881 the company split. Joseph left, with his brother Giacomo, to form Fontana Freres, which was established at the Galerie de Valois. In 1893, when the Palais Royal fell out of favour with the public, the brothers moved to new premises at 7 rue de la Paix , Joseph died in 1897, Giacamo in 1899. Pierre Fontana, son of Joseph, was their successor. Charles continued with the original business, at 96 and 98 of the Galerie de Beaujolaisl. In 1896 the firm moved their headquarters to spacious new premises at 13  Rue Royale, and throughout the early 20th Century exhibited and created exceptional Art Nouveau and Art Deco pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIn 1900 the firm exhibited at the Exposition Universelle with a display of Art Nouveau designs which combined gemstones and enamel work.  The firm continued throughout the Art Deco period producing fashionable items such as sautoirs and diamond clips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFontana was recognised for beautiful design and fine craftsmanship, described by Vever as “one of the most famous in Paris”. They attracted a loyal clientele for jewellery, predominantly designed in the traditional taste, “classic and rich”, according to Vever, which appealed to the Parisian bourgeois. Pieces by Fontana are sought-after, with pieces rarely appearing for sale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eChaumet holds the Fontana archives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis tiara necklace bears the CF\u0026amp; Cie maker’s mark.

It features a raised (positive) relief image. There are three main materials for Cameo carving; Shells or Agate (called a Hardstone cameo), and glass. Cameos can be produced by setting a carved relief, such as a portrait, onto a background of a contrasting colour. This is called an assembled cameo. Alternately, a cameo can be carved directly out of a material with integral layers or banding, such as (banded) agate or layered glass, where different layers have different colours. Sometimes dyes are used to enhance these colours. Cameos are often worn as jewellery. Stone cameos of great artistry were made in Greece dating back as far as the 6th century BC. They were very popular in Ancient Rome, and one of the most famous stone cameos from this period is the Gemma Claudia made for Emperor Claudius. The technique has since enjoyed periodic revivals, notably in the early Renaissance, and again in the 17th, 18thand 19th centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTechnique (02):\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c!--enamelling--\u003e Enamelling is an old and widely-adopted technology. The ancient Egyptians applied enamels to pottery and stone objects. The ancient Greeks, Celts, Russians, and Chinese also used enamelling processes on metal objects. Enamel is the colourful result of fusing powdered glass to a substrate by firing, usually between 750 and 850 degrees Celsius. The powder melts and flows and hardens to a smooth, durable vitreous coating on metal, glass or ceramic. According to some sources, the word enamel comes from the High German word smelzan (to smelt) via the Old French esmail. Used as a noun, \"an enamel\" is a usually small decorative object, coated with enamel coatings, such as a champlev√© or a cloisonn√© (different techniques).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- precious --\u003e\u003cb\u003ePrecious stones:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c!--cameo--\u003e cameo Two \u003c!--half seed pearls--\u003e half seed pearls\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- birthstones --\u003e\u003cb\u003eBirthstones:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c!--just pearl--\u003e Pearl is the birthstone (or month stone) for June.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHallmarks:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c!--French eagle's head - since 1838--\u003e The French control mark for 18ct gold representing an eagle's head that was in use in France from about 1838.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- condition-weight-dimensions --\u003e \u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e height as brooch 5,05 cm (1,99 inch), height as pendant 5,57 cm (2,19 inch)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 27,80 gram (17,88 dwt)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adin Fine Antique Jewellery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56002571141507,"sku":"JDAD-15209-0125","price":4300.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/8355\/6483\/files\/15209-0125.p00_French20Victorian20antique20hard20stone20cameo20in20elegant20enameled20mounting-en.jpg?v=1752569941"},{"product_id":"antique-victorian-garnet-and-diamond-set-snake-pendant-brooch","title":"Antique Victorian Garnet and Diamond Set Snake Pendant Brooch","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--YouTube#:ciTG8rNIdnM--\u003e\u003c!--YouTubeTags:19th century,anchor,animals land,April,biedemeier (1815 - 1848),bow,brilliant,brooch\/pendant,brooches etc.,brown,cabochon,diamond,diamond antique brilliant cut,diamond brilliant cut,diamond old brilliant cut,fauna all,foilsetting,garnet,gold bicolor,gold multicolor,gold red pink rose,gold yellow,January,Louis-Phillippe (1830-1848),love token,luck token,naval,neck jewelry,pendants,red,rose cut,silver,snake,to pin on,Victorian,Victorian, romantic (1840 - 1860),war andpeace,Adin Antique Jewelry,Adin Antwerp Belgium,Antique Jewelry,Estate Jewelry,Vintage Jewelry,Fashion,Birthday--\u003e \u003c!-- welcometext --\u003e \u003c!--- Early-Victorian diamond brooch-pendant snake with anchor under a bow also medallion --\u003e \u003c!--- --\u003e\u003c!--- BEGIN EMOTXT DO NOT REMOVE THIS LINE --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Early-Victorian bi-colour gold-backed pendant from 1830 embodies a treasure of symbols through a deep pink garnet heart, a silver-topped bow, snake, cross and anchor encrusted with three European cut diamonds and with a total of 86 rose-cut diamonds set in foil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the ruby-eyed snake wraps around the cross, its head emerges to the centre of the garnet and emphasizes the opulent heart-shape.

This period covers the coronation of Victoria as Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, and her marriage to King Albert and their love, their devotion to their marriage and to their country are the sources of inspiration for this period. The jewels of this period are made of intricate carvings, special techniques where the enamel is subtly worked. These techniques allowed to give the jewel a certain opulence with less precious metal needed. As precious metals were really rare at that time. Highly favoured (semi-) precious stones in this period are amethyst, coral, garnets, seed pearls and turquoises. The connotation is obviously sentimental, symbolic and romantic with reminiscent Gothic and\/or Renaissance patterns and abundant use of motifs like anchors, birds, branches, crosses, hearts and snakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/b\u003e ca. 1860\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSource of inspiration:\u003c\/b\u003e Symbolism (for snake and anchor)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTheme:\u003c\/b\u003e snake, anchor and bow\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- material-technique --\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c!--Silver top and backed 18K red and 14K yellow--\u003e Silver on top and backed with 18ct red gold (on the bow) and 14ct yellow gold (on anchor)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c!--foil settings--\u003e The rose cuts and the cabochon garnet are set on foil.

There also exists in heraldry the \"Anchored Cross\", or Mariner's Cross, a stylized cross in the shape of an anchor. The symbol can be used to signify 'fresh start' or 'hope'. The New Testament refers to the Christian's hope as \"an anchor of the soul\" (Hebrews 6:19). In 1887, the Delta Gamma Fraternity adopted the anchor as its badge to signify hope.

Considerable overlap exists in the symbolic values that serpents represent in various cultures. Some such overlap is due to the common historical ancestry of contemporary symbols. Much of the overlap, however, is traceable to the common biological characteristics of snakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn some instances, serpents serve as positive symbols with whom it is possible to identify or to sympathize; in other instances, serpents serve as negative symbols, representing opponents or antagonists of figures or principles with which it is possible to identify. Serpents also appear as ambivalent figures, neither wholly positive nor wholly negative in valence. An example of a serpent used as a positive symbol is Mucalinda, the king of snakes who shielded the Buddha from the elements as the Buddha sat in meditation. An example of a serpent used as a negative symbol is the snake who tempted Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, as described in the Book of Genesis.

These originated about mid 18th century at the Vatican Mosaic Workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmalti - Flat rectilinear tesserae made by pouring molten opaque coloured enamel onto a steel slab, allowing it to cool, and then cutting it into small flat or cubed pieces called tesserae. The smalti are composed of silica, an alkaline substance such as soda or potash, lead, metal oxide colouring agents, and tin oxide for opacity. Opaque tesserae were desirable to avoid a shiny reflective surface when using mosaics as copies of paintings in St. Peter‚Äôs Basilica.

He specialised in recreating the jewellery of ancient craftsmen, particularly the Etruscans. Castellani based many of his designs directly on archaeological evidence and often incorporated intaglios,cameos and micromosaics into his jewellery. His work became very fashionable throughout 19th century Europe and his shop was frequented by grand tourists and aristocracy. The Castellani dynasty spanned three generations, who were also noted antiquarians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCastellani's life\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nCastellani opened his first workshop in Rome in 1815. Initially, his designs reflected the fashions of the day and were generally based on French and English jewellery of the period. However, in the 1820s, Castellani began to develop the style for which he would become most famous. In collaboration with his friend and sponsor Michelangelo Caetani - later the Duke of Sermoneta and a noted archaeologist - Castellani began to draw inspiration from archaeological discoveries particularly those of the pre-Roman Etruscan culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1836, archaeologists discovered the Regolini-Galassi tomb, a particularly important Etruscan find that yielded a large amount of beautifully preserved jewellery. Because of his expertise in the field and his connections with Caetani, Castellani was enlisted as an advisor on the excavation. Much of the jewellery excavated was decorated with granulation - tiny specks of gold applied to the surface.

The powder melts and flows and hardens to a smooth, durable vitreous coating on metal, glass or ceramic. According to some sources, the word enamel comes from the High German word smelzan (to smelt) via the Old French esmail.

The jewels of this period are made of intricate carvings, special techniques where the enamel is subtly worked. These techniques allowed to give the jewel a certain opulence with less precious metal needed. As precious metals were really rare at that time. Highly favoured (semi-) precious stones in this period are amethyst, coral, garnets, seed pearls and turquoises. The connotation is obviously sentimental, symbolic and romantic with reminiscent Gothic and\/renaissance patterns and an abundant use of motifs like anchors, birds, branches, crosses, hearts and snakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/b\u003e ca. 1860\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSource of inspiration:\u003c\/b\u003e Mythology and perhaps Freemasonry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTheme:\u003c\/b\u003e A star sapphire guarded by two sphinxes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- material-technique --\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c!--yellow 18K--\u003e 18ct yellow gold\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eExtra information:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c!--Sphinx FOR ADIN --\u003e Sphinx - The Greek mythology tells us the story about Oedipus (a king from Thebe) and his confrontation with the Sphinx in his search for the truth. The Sphinx had the head and breasts of a woman, the body of a lion, the tail of a snake and the wings of an eagle. This monster asked all travellers the enigmatic question: \"Which creature with a voice walks in the morning with 4 legs, in the afternoon with two and in the evening with three.\" The Sphinx destroyed everyone who answered incorrectly. If you want to know the correct answer by which Oedipus destroyed the Sphinx, you've got to check Wikipedia a bit :-)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSphinx and Freemasonry:\u003c\/b\u003e The sphinx image also has been adopted into Masonic architecture. Among the Egyptians, sphinxes were placed at the entrance of the temples to guard their mysteries, by warning those who penetrated within that they should conceal a knowledge of them from the uninitiated. Champollion said that the sphinx became successively the symbol of each of the gods. The placement of the sphinxes expressed the idea that all the gods were hidden from the people, and that the knowledge of them, guarded in the sanctuaries, was revealed to initiates only. As a Masonic emblem, the sphinx has been adopted in its Egyptian character as a symbol of mystery, and as such often is found as a decoration sculptured in front of Masonic temples, or engraved at the head ofMasonic documents. It cannot, however, be properly called an ancient, recognized symbol of the order. Its introduction has been of comparatively recent date, and rather as a symbolic decoration than as a symbol of any particular dogma.

The ancient Egyptians applied enamels to pottery and stone objects. The ancient Greeks, Celts, Russians, and Chinese also used enamelling processes on metal objects. Enamel is the colourful result of fusing powdered glass to a substrate by firing, usually between 750 and 850 degrees Celsius. The powder melts and flows and hardens to a smooth, durable vitreous coating on metal, glass or ceramic. According to some sources, the word enamel comes from the High German word smelzan (to smelt) via the Old French esmail. Used as a noun, \"an enamel\" is a usually small decorative object, coated with enamel coatings, such as a champlev√© or a cloisonn√© (different techniques).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--plique a jour 02 --\u003e Plique-√†-jour, (French for \"braid letting in daylight\"} is a vitreous enamelling technique where the enamel is applied in cells, similar to cloisonn√©, but with no backing in the final product, so light can shine through the transparent or translucent enamel. It has a stained-glass like appearance and is considered very challenging technically.

1860.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMadame de Pompadour was a member of the French court and was the official chief mistress of Louis XV from 1745 to 1751, and remained influential as court favourite until her death.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePompadour took charge of the king's schedule and was a valued aide and advisor, despite her frail health and many political enemies. She secured titles of nobility for herself and her relatives and built a network of clients and supporters. She was particularly careful not to alienate the Queen, Marie Leszczynska. On 8 February 1756, the Marquise de Pompadour was named as the thirteenth lady in waiting to the queen, a position considered the most prestigious at the court, which accorded her with honours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePompadour was a major patroness of architecture and decorative arts, especially porcelain. She was a patroness of the philosophes of the Enlightenment, including Voltaire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHostile critics at the time generally tarred her as a malevolent political influence, but historians are more favourable, emphasizing her successes as a patroness of the arts and a champion of French pride. Art historian Melissa Hyde argues that the critiques of Pompadour were driven by fears over the overturning of social and gender hierarchies that Pompadour's power and influence, as a woman who was not born into the aristocracy, represented.
