Starting just before the turn of the century, lighter weight jewelry became popular, reflecting the advent of metals that were strong enough to support this style of jewelry making as well as the tastes for lighter fabrics in clothing. (Think of the white hand embroidered dresses worn by Edwardian ladies like these>>>

This filigree style continued and developed through the flapper era and into the 1930's. Sometimes they are plain filigree, and sometimes decorated with rhinestones and/or enameling.
