Jewel in the Shape of an Orfèvrerie Bouquet

1621

This print is from Tabulae Gemmiferae XXIV, a book with 24 designs for so-called Orfèvrerie bouquets. In this design, along with square, table-cut gemstones are also a few lozenge-shaped ones. The bouquet has two parts: at the left among the stones can be seen the design for the gold mount, and at the right the floral design for the enamelling or engraving on the back.
