Abstract
The nineteenth-century taste for orientalism left its mark in the field of jewellery. Around 1850, the french jeweller Eugène Petiteau invented a genre of jewels of moorish appearance, made in chiselled and openworked silver enamelled in black and with red coral pendants. Petiteau had certain degree of success with his creation. One of his clients was the Spanish Queen Isabella II.
