   the Sacristy of the Cathedral at Clermont                         9ct Yellow Gold        $826

Regarding Clermont Cathedral: The construction started in 1248 and was finished in the 19th century. http://en.structurae.de/structures/data/index.cfm?=s0011460
www.newadvent.org/cathen/04053a.htm
In some articles the cathedral is mentioned in conjunction with the first Crusade, however the actual church was an earlier Romanesque church.
The sacristy is an essential part of the cathedral and must have been finished early to hold church services. The ornament is part of the sacristy which I found in the book 'The styles of Ornament' by Alexander Speltz, being classified as Gothic ornament. Quote: "....Gothic Style ....originally proceeded from Northern France...In Early Gothic, in the 13th century, the leaves were nearly always more or less conventionalized with a slight naturalistic leaning. Later on, the leaves were produced with more force and energy, becoming finally, in Late Gothic, much more naturalistic in their form." 
Another book of ours 'A History of Art' by H.W. Janson describes: "Late Gothic architecture and sculpture strive for picturesque effects rather than clarity and firmness."
According to those two descriptions, we conclude that the flower/star ornament from the Sacristy must resemble Early Gothic about 13th century.

Please allow 3 weeks for manufacture, sizing and delivery after receipt of payment. Special requests for custom-made period jewellery can be fulfilled.

Jewellery items can be made on request in different materials, e.g.: 9ct, 14ct or 18ct Yellow Gold, White Gold, Rose Gold or Palladium. We prefer to use Palladium White Gold instead of Nickel White Gold Alloys as they are known to cause allergies. Palladium is an expensive heavy metal, so Palladium White Gold is denser and heavier. It is more difficult to process as the melting temperatures are substantially higher. Therefore jewellery in palladium white gold is more expensive than identical pieces in nickel white gold. A White Gold item cannot be tarnished black like Silver.

The blackened silver is achieved by oxidizing with alkaline sulphides and highlights added afterwards with a handmade polishing steel.     materials we use

Please ask for quote depending on current gold price including your delivery address that we can calculate the correct postage. 

Testimonial: Thank you so much for the wonderful bells. Their color is brilliant and their weight will be just right for the costume. I love that they are larger then the pictures on your website .I will show them around the museum and my husband loves them as well. When my costume is finished I will send you a pic. for your collection or website. Thank You Again
They are lovely and true works of art.
