Passionate Collectors & Active Buyers of Art Nouveau Jewellery
Art Nouveau jewellery (c.1890–1910) represents one of the most imaginative and technically demanding periods in the history of decorative arts. The movement embraced nature — dragonflies, peacock feathers, irises, female faces framed in flowing hair — executed in enamel, gold, horn, ivory and gem stones with breathtaking artistry.
At Mozeris Fine Antiques, we are genuine enthusiasts of this period. We actively seek the finest examples of Art Nouveau jewellery from British, French, Belgian and American makers, and we pay premium prices that reflect the true collector market — not auction-house estimates.
Whether you have a single Lalique pendant, a set of plique-à-jour enamel earrings, or an extensive collection of Art Nouveau pieces, we would be delighted to offer a free, expert valuation at our Braintree, Essex or Mayfair, London showroom — strictly by appointment.

Artists & Makers Whose Work We Actively Seek
The most celebrated names in Art Nouveau jewellery — pieces signed by these makers command exceptional premiums
René Lalique
The supreme master of Art Nouveau jewellery. Lalique's enamel, glass, ivory and gem-set creations command the highest prices of any Art Nouveau jeweller. Signed pieces are exceptionally valuable.
Georges Fouquet
Parisian jeweller who collaborated with Alphonse Mucha on the famous Sarah Bernhardt serpent bracelet. His sinuous, enamelled pieces are among the most sought-after in the genre.
Lucien Gaillard
Master of horn, ivory and enamel work inspired by Japanese art. His dragonfly and insect brooches with plique-à-jour wings are technically extraordinary and highly collected.
Philippe Wolfers
Belgium's foremost Art Nouveau jeweller — his ivory, enamel and diamond pieces bridging Symbolism and Art Nouveau are rare and exceptional, achieving major auction records.
Masriera & Carreras
Barcelona jewellers who combined French Art Nouveau with Catalan Modernisme — their plique-à-jour enamel fairy and nymph pendants are internationally sought by collectors.
British Art Nouveau
Pieces by Liberty & Co (Cymric range), C.R. Ashbee, and the Birmingham Guild of Handicraft — Arts & Crafts meets Art Nouveau in silver, enamel and semi-precious stones.
What Art Nouveau Jewellery We Buy
We buy all categories of Art Nouveau jewellery — signed and unsigned, single pieces and collections
Plique-à-Jour Enamel
The most technically demanding Art Nouveau technique — translucent enamel cells without a metal backing, glowing like miniature stained glass. Dragonfly brooches, butterfly wings, flower pendants.
Champlevé & Cloisonné Enamel
Rich opaque and translucent enamel in sinuous organic designs — peacock feathers, irises, mistletoe, water lilies. French and Belgian examples command the highest prices.
Horn & Ivory Jewellery
Lalique and Gaillard pioneered horn combs, hair ornaments and pendants with carved naturalistic detail — unusual and highly collectable materials used with extraordinary artistry.
Gem-Set Naturalistic Pieces
Gold and silver pieces set with opals, moonstones, demantoid garnets, turquoise, pearls and plique-à-jour enamel in organic, flowing designs — insects, flowers, female figures.
Liberty & Co / Arts & Crafts
Cymric silver jewellery by Liberty of London — turquoise-set brooches, enamel pendants, hammered silver — and pieces by Archibald Knox, C.R. Ashbee and the Birmingham School.
Signed & Unsigned Examples
We buy both signed pieces by named makers and high-quality unsigned Art Nouveau jewellery. The quality of design and execution always matters more than a signature alone.
What We Typically Pay for Art Nouveau Jewellery
All prices are indicative — signed pieces by major makers command significantly higher values
