Description

An Art Nouveau pendant / brooch, hallmarked 56 zolotnik, the old Russian gold standard (14 carat), and with what we interpret as the initials 'И А' of Ivan Ado (1899-1908), chief assayer in Kazan. Made of gold and silver and set with two natural rubies with no visible signs of treatment (approx. 4 ct), twelve diamonds (approx. 0.36 ct) and 79 green demantoite garnets from the Urals (approx. 4.2 ct). In original case: Petrograd, N. Linden (Nikolai Linden, jeweler in Petersburg).

 

Russia, circa 1900

 

The Nikolai Linden jewelry company has a very interesting history and even collaborated with Fabergé. In 1892, Nikolai Linden established a workshop on Nevsky Prospect, St. Petersburg's main street, where he repaired jewelry and watches. Over time, the workshop also became a jewelry and watch shop, eventually becoming one of the most successful of its kind in St. Petersburg. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Linden was appointed as a supplier to various royal courts, including the Shah of Iran, the Russian Imperial House, and the kings of Montenegro, Bulgaria, and Romania.

Love the owner. Very strong and wise lady. Family owned shop, and she has been working there 55 years. She seems cold at the beginning but she’s really patient and friendly, allow you to try everything but never push you to make a decision. We discussed how to change the size of my ring, she had really strong and professional opinion, just listen to her , you are in good hand. Very very nice collections and you can trust their experiences.

I visited the shop June 2022. I ended up buying a lovely 1970s emerald ring. She was able to resize it that day! If I visit Amsterdam again, I will definitely stop by this store.

Perfect view of a beautiful piece of antique and always willing to provide an explanation. Never the compulsion to buy, customer friendliness and knowledge at its best! By the way, I'm not related.
