Likely attributed to Raymond Yard. Known for using only the finest stones, he earned a reputation as a true perfectionist which is evidenced in his exquisite designs.
The classical Yard style that had emerged towards the end of the 1920s and reached its peak in the 1930s was characterized by the use of different stone cuts that varied in brilliance and created a three-dimensional effect, allowing each gemstone to radiate without having an overly glitzy glare.
