Art Nouveau Jewelry and Plique a Jour
Art Nouveau jewelry is best known for its rare plique a jour enameling. ....where ribbons of precious 18 karat gold filigree wire are fused with specially formulated glass to created breathtaking Art Nouveau jewelry and Art Nouveau objects d' Art. Plique a jour translates to "light of day". The words are appropriate for this most beautiful and difficult of enameling techniques, which resembles miniature stain glass. The Nouveau 1910 exquisite collection of plique a jour handmade Art Nouveau jewelry is produced in Barcelona, Spain, under the leadership of third generation jewelers of Pere Arquer. Because all the steps in the jewelry making process are done by hand, the color of the enamels may never be completely identical -- making each Nouveau 1910 jewelry piece a one-of-a-kind antique style Art Nouveau heirloom.
