Petit Point
A stone shaped to a fine point which is usually somewhat larger than needle point and is characterized by being round, oval, or having one rounded end.
It became possible to create jewels that resembled "petit point" embroidery. Edwardian brooches, rings and pendants were often made in this fashion. Millegraining was a typical decorative technique used throughout the Edwardian period.
