The Edwardian Jewelry era saw England as a dominant global force which greatly influenced the better part of the civilized world. The powerful elite experienced a prosperous age of ‘modern' jewelry manufacturing techniques with platinum and pearls in profuse elegance demonstrating wealth and rank. Louis Cartier used art and architecture to model Garland jewelry, designed to reflect luxury and the status of the social elite, closely followed by Boucheron, Tiffany, Chaumet and Lacloche borrowing Classical Roman, Ancient Greek, Napoleonic and French Baroque styles with tassels, garlands of flowers, swags of foliage, ribbon ties, laurel wreaths, scrolls and feathers mounted in platinum with diamonds and pearls executed in exquisite taste.
