A Beautiful Vintage Jewelry "The Glycine collar"

The plique-à-jour technique was used for the green leaves of the Glycine collar by Philippe Wolfers, perhaps the most important piece by the Belgian jeweler.

It has wisteria blossoms of opal and watermelon tourmalines and curved branches set with tiny rubies.
