The story: Antique jewelry from the Napoleon III era refers to the creations of French jewelers from the 1850s to 1870s. They distinguish themeselves by a particular work of carvings and enamels. The mounts of the latter were often made of yellow gold and 18-carat rose gold. At that time, fine pearls were particularly popular and were found in various shapes, from the drop to the pear or baroque-style.
