Novelties in Jewellery.
A berry blossom of black enamel with silver back makes a beautiful lace pin. A miniature ivory paintingshown through a thick crystal is now seen on plain hoop bracelets. A unique silver glove-stretcher has two Japanese warriors represented in belligerent attitude on each handle. A fern Jeaf, ribbed with small diamonds, set in neatly chased old gold, forms aa unpretentious yet tasteful brooch. A heart-shaped pink topaz, surrounded by small diamonds, forms an exceedingly tasteful pendant for a lady’s chain. A horseshoe of diamonds and rubies, with a single pearl in the centre, forms an artistic and pretty head for a scarfpin. Odd, yet attractive, is a finger-ring formed by a miniature gold police handcuff, with the projecting point clasping a brilliant. Three diamonds scattered among the petals of a pink enamel chrysanthemum is a lace pin that .will soon become seasonable. A scarfpin representing a fox poking his head through the curved pipe of a bugle is decidedly pleasing as well as unique. A silver belt buckle simulating a bunch of wild daisies, the centres of which are of silver gilt, has recently been much affected.
