"Harlequin" Jewellery

The name "harlequin" was often used to describe jewellery set with many different coloured gemstones. It's in reference to Harlequin, one of the "comic servant" characters from the Italian Commedia dell’Arte tradition who was introduced in the late 16th century and popularised by Tristano Martinelli, the "Master of Harlequins". Characterised by his brightly chequered costume, he usually served as a direct contrast, sometimes in competition, with the sterner and melancholic Pierrot. The role was that of an astute, nimble, and overly light-hearted servant who would often attempt to thwart the plans of his master while pursuing his own love interest, Columbina.

Stunning Victorian harlequin necklace, circa 1880 (above). It's fully strung with natural seed pearls and 19 individual gemstone drops including: blue sapphire cabochon, white sapphire, almandine garnet, chrysoprase, opal, hessonite garnet, turquoise, mabe pearl, emerald, ruby, and tourmaline (with some duplicates). Each of the gemstone settings features three seed pearl drops at the bottom as well as the collet-set central gem. Crafted in 9 karat gold with original barrel clasp and safety chain still present.

A gorgeous Georgian Harlequin Flower Brooch dating from the early 19th Century, circa 1800. The stones are foil backed, and display beautiful muted hues - they include: citrine, topaz, garnet, and a central rock crystal (with black dot culet). Modelled in 9 karat gold with cut down settings typical of the period.

This antique brooch is divine. It's modelled in 15k gold, intricately worked in the regency style, and set with a Harlequin rainbow of gemstones around a central shell cameo. I believe the piece depicts the nine Classical Muses: a Lyre for Epic Poetry (Calliope), Dance (Terpsichore), and Love Poetry (Erato); an Aulos (ancient form of flute) for Music (Euterpe); the Globe and Compass for Astronomy (Urania); the Theatre Mask for Comedy (Thalia) and Tragedy (Melpomene); and a Broken Column for History (Clio); and finally, the harlequin multi-coloured gemstones represents Agriculture (Polyhymnia) - as in a bountiful harvest.
