The same delicacy of graphic lines...

Karl Faberge jewelry
The same delicacy of graphic lines is observed in jewelry produced at the outset of the 20th century.
Highly popular at the time were brooch-pendants that often combined vegetation elements with abstract motifs.
Such are the diamond brooch-pendants made at the St.
Petersburg factory of Alexander Lyubavin and the Faberge firm, and the elegant pendant produced in Moscow between 1908 and 1917 and decorated with aquamarines and deep-blue sapphires in the form of drops.
The achievements of the Art nouveau style along with the best features of eclecticism had their impact on Soviet art in the first post-revolutionary years and are continuing their creative development in our time.
They have remained a fine school of mastership for jewelry artists.

Such arabesques and stylized vegetation motifs embellish the silver wine-bottle bowl produced at the Moscow factory of Adrian Ivanov.

The light, graceful pattern is executed in a fine engraving technique and the lines are brought out by delicate niello work.

Their expressiveness is enhanced by the fantastic twist of the beast's horns, serving as arms and ending in candle holders. Another attraction is the Art nouveau-sly\e confectionery-dish with a handle in the shape of a stem with berries — it was made in St. Petersburg between 1899 and 1908.
The abstract arabesque motif was exceedingly popular in the Art nouveau period.
