The Art Nouveau Jewellery Collection

Art Nouveau means 'new art' and dates from 1895 to 1905. The name derived from Samuel Bings' shop which opened in Paris in 1895 and was named La Maison de l'Art Nouveau. Its unmistakable characteristic flowing graceful lines, often emulating dragonflies and peacocks, makes it one of the most elegant and feminine designs for day or evening jewellery. This collection is a true tribute to the Art Nouveau period. Hand made by an established English jewellery designer.
