An Art Deco diamond pendant brooch

Platinum and 18k white gold oval pendant of geometric pierced design interspersed with six prunus flowers. Encrusted with 136 brilliant-cut and ten baguette-cut diamonds (in total c. 12.7 ct, H-J, vs - si). The central transition-cut diamond c. 1.25 ct. Can be worn as a pendant or a brooch, the brooch clasp with orignal screw mountings. In a red leather case with a screwdriver. Hallmarks: Parisian gold guarantee (Tardy, 161), unidentified maker's mark "AE", with a hammer in a rhombus. Total H 8.5 cm. W 4 cm. Weight 31.7 g.
Paris, 1925/30.

This Asian inspired design derives its charm from the elegant contrast between the stark geometric background and the seemingly random arrangement of the prunus flowers.
