For the first time during the Edwardian period jewelry was made to reflect electric lights and not candles. The jewelry was delicate, fine, and very light making use of platinum for its whiteness and diamonds for their luster. One example was the negligee pendant necklace with fine links with two parallel pendants suspended at different heights. It was just the sort of thing Miss Dora Benley, heroine of Key to Lawrence, might have worn to the ball on the Lusitania during its last voyage from May 1 to May 7, 1915. It’s pictured today on http://www.edwardwarethrillers.org.
