    Stumbled into this while looking for names of Viennese jewellers working in the 19th century:

    Lots of illustrations, some in color, and takes up things like buckles, hat pins and fans, not only brooches, pendants, etc.

    I've only had time to take a quick skim and scroll - looks like a lot of fun. :)

    Buckles, clasps, hat pins, parasol handles... It's the first time I've seen all these items of personal adornment taken up together. Noticed there were quite a few women designers.

    To do it justice (and save my eyesight), I'll have to get off my phone and sit in front of my computer! Thanks, @Bronwen

    I couldn't believe I had never come across it before. Have never needed to look into Viennese jewellers before, & that's what tossed it up, close to the top of the search results. Fun, isn't it? Current design just doesn't compete, IMO.
