Created circa 1928 by Cartier New York, this Art Deco brooch is composed of jadeite, diamonds, enamel and platinum. Its design, deriving from Islamic art, is a scalloped navette with elevations of pav??-set diamond scrolls outlined in black enamel, vertically flanking a floral-carved jadeite cylinder with diamond caps bound by arches of baguette-cut diamonds. Worn vertically on the strap of a dress, or at the neckline, this versatile Cartier jewel from the 1920s is Art Deco with intellectual and artistic power.
