A gold, sapphire and diamond bracelet, Edward Schramm, Moscow, circa 1890
This late 19th century bracelet by Moscow jeweler Edward Schramm exemplifies the opulent aesthetic of the Russian Imperial period through its combination of precious materials: gleaming gold, deep blue sapphires, and brilliant diamonds. The piece reflects the technical mastery and refined taste characteristic of Moscow's preeminent jewelry workshops during the 1890s, when such luxury items were commissioned by the Russian aristocracy and wealthy merchants. Schramm's design demonstrates the period's preference for bold gemstone placement balanced with elegant metalwork, hallmarks of Russian jewelry craftsmanship at the height of the Tsarist era.
