The sides and the back of the ornaments are decorated in enamel. Before diamonds were discovered in Brazil in the 1700s, the Indian subcontinent was the world\u2019s only source of diamonds, mined in the Golconda region of the Daccan plateau. In fact, the contemporary unit of measurement for diamonds, the carat, originated in India. The term comes from the Arabic word kirat, referring to the small seed of the carob plant that was used to weigh diamonds."},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Enameled gold, diamonds"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"1"},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"Pair of Gold-Set Double-Faced Diamond Inset Square Pendants with Floral Motifs and Enamelled Floral Ornamentation on Edges"},"classification":{"label":"Classifications","value":"Jewelry"},"primaryMedia":{"value":"http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/44131/full"},"depth":{"label":"Depth","value":"0.6350000000"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"18th - 19th century"},"width":{"label":"Width","value":"5.0800000000"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"164769"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"Overall: 2 3/16 x 2 x 1/4 in.
