Die Familie der Grafen Lanckoronski war eine sehr reiche polnische Magnatenfamilie.
Kasimir Graf Lanckoronski heiratete Leonie Gräfin Potocka für
sie liess er bei Chaumet in Paris einer der schönsten Schmuckstücke
des Pariser Juwelierhauses fertigen.
Dieser Saphirschmuck mit Diamanten ist oben abgebildet.
The
exquisite antique sapphire and diamond necklace was commissioned
at Chaumet, Paris in 1894 by the Polish Count Lanckoronski.
Composed of a fringe of graduated rectangular-cut and cushion-shaped
sapphire pendants, each in a diamond-set floral surround, suspended
from a neck-chain of ribbon bow and scroll motif, ca 1893, it had an
original burgundy leather fitted case embossed with the initials IL
and a coronet.
The necklace is certainly amongst one of the most exquisite jewels by
the Parisian house. One of the motifs on the piece, the small and very
delicate ribbon bow, is a recurring theme in Chaumet jewels of the 1890s
and early 1900s.
The fine antique sapphire and diamond tiara with the openwork
mount designed as a series of circular and rose-cut diamond leaf scrolls
set at intervals with cushion-shaped sapphires above a band of calibre-cut
sapphires with cushion-shaped diamond points, rose-cut diamonds line
borders mounted in silver and gold. Once fitted with sapphires drops,
the tiara was later modified. Thank you to Laura and Volker
