介绍（中）	到19世纪中叶，美国人正经历着一个科学和工业创新的时代。后者包括珠宝业，珠宝业和服装时尚一样，都向欧洲寻求灵感。怀旧的浪漫主义在英国和美国都注入了当代风格。十八世纪中叶，花卉和卷轴等主题开始重新出现。这款可爱的半套胸针和耳环模仿了法国和英国的设计，采用深蓝色珐琅镶嵌钻石和珍珠。在美国，珐琅仍然是一种很少实践的艺术，需要专业工匠的技能。这一过程包括加热玻璃质（玻璃质）搪瓷，将其粘结到金属表面，在本例中为金。这件珠宝仍然放在原来的盒子里，盒子的盖子上印着珠宝商的名字和地址：E.W.BURR/573 B.WAY/NEW-YORK。城市名录显示，爱德华·伯尔在1858年搬到了百老汇573号，帮助我们确定了拍摄日期。
介绍（英）	By the mid-nineteenth century, Americans were experiencing an era of innovation in science and industry. Among the latter was the jewelry industry, which, like fashions in dress, looked to Europe for inspiration. A nostalgic romanticism infused contemporary styles in both England and America. Such mid-eighteenth-century motifs as flowers and scrolls began to reappear. This lovely half-set of brooch and earrings emulates French and English designs in the use of dark blue enamel set with diamonds and pearls. Enameling was still a little-practiced art in America, requiring the skills of a specialized craftsman. The process involved heating vitreous (glassy) enamels to bond them onto a metal surface, in this case gold. This jewelry is still housed in its original box, the lid of which is imprinted with the name and address of the jeweler: E. W. BURR / 573 B.WAY / NEW-YORK. City directories indicate that Edward Burr moved to 573 Broadway by 1858, helping us to establish a date for the set.
