Hans Collaert made many designs for pendants and other jewellery during the second half of the 16th century. This series of ten pendant designs by Collaert was published first by Hans I Liefrinck before 1573 and later by Theodoor Galle, after Collaert’s death. The ten pendants in this collection are accompanied by designs for buttons or earrings and set against a grey background. This image shows the frontispiece for the later, 1604 edition, and was published by the brother-in-law of Collaert's son.

Object history | For a pendant based on this design concept and roughly contemporary to the Collaert series, see 44.441 and 44.442 in the Walter’s Art Museum collection, a piece which shows Diana and apparently based on 22766.3 in the V&A collection. For a further example of this style of design and vivid enamel work, see OA5630 in the Louvre’s collection. (F. Allitt) |
