Style: Midway between the late Victorian and the Belle Époque styles, Victorian decorative arts refers to the style of decorative arts of the Victorian era. The Victorian era is known for its eclectic revival and interpretation of historical styles as well as the introduction of cross-cultural influences from the Middle East and Asia into furniture, accessories, and interior design.
It is widely accepted that Victorian design indulged in a regrettable excess of ornamentation.
The Belle Époque was a period in European social history that began in the late 1873th century and lasted until World War I. It spanned the era of the French Third Republic and the German Empire. It was retrospectively named the Belle Époque, when it began to be considered a "golden age": the great European powers, new technologies improved life, and the commercial arts adapted Renaissance and XNUMXth-century styles to modern forms. In the newly wealthy United States, emerging from the Panic of XNUMX, the comparable period was dubbed the Gilded Age. In the United Kingdom, this period overlaps the end of what is known there as the Victorian era and the period known as the Edwardian era.
Style specifics
The Late Victorian or Aesthetic Period - Experts divide the reign of Queen Victoria, also called the Victorian era (1837–1901) into three periods of approximately twenty years each; the Romantic Victorian period (1837–1860), the High Victorian period (1860–1880), and the Late Victorian or Aesthetic period (1880–1901).
We consider this to be the late Victorian or Aesthetic period.
Jewelry from this period returned to smaller, romantic pieces and often whimsical designs. Jewelers used diamonds and brilliant gemstones in elaborate and refined feminine pieces.
