Edwardian 18ct Gold, Rose Diamond & Odenile Enamel & Watch

16C/OJ
406 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A very pretty and highly detailed 18ct gold and pale blue odenile enamel watch. The type of enamel is called Guilloché. This style was developed in the late 1800’s, during a time of great industrial growth throughout Europe. This technique refers to a type of abstract geometric pattern cut into the surface of metal with a layer of transparent enamel applied over the top allowing the design to show through. The introduction of metal lathes allowed a variety of machine turned surfaces to be made with continuous patterns and designs, from moiré patterns to wave designs. This watch was made circa 1900-1910 and is set with graded rose diamonds in a platinum setting around the edge with a central rose design. It is in good working order but we cannot guarantee exact time keeping!
