An aigrette is a hair ornament designed to hold or depict feathers and is usually jewel encrusted and sometimes mounted en tremblant. The name comes from the egret – the feathers of this particular bird were often used as adornments in hair and on hats. This fashion reached its peak at the end of the 19th century when hats were often made entirely of feathers and occasionally even whole birds.
Our fascination with birds has maintained the feather as a popular jewelry motif.
The arrangement of the stones corresponding sometimes also called a duchesse or "Bague Duchesse" ring . Like no other ring type, this one captures the ethereal elegance of its time of origin.
