At that time, women were allegories. They were depicted as dreamy, sensual, sometimes nymphs or fairies. In jewelry, their faces blended with foliage, butterfly wings, and scrolls that seemed to come to life in the wind... This pin recalls the silhouettes in the works of Mucha, Lalique or Vever, where women became muses and central motifs.
