- En Tremblant - En tremblant is a French term meaning "to tremble". It was first used to describe 18th and 19th century jewellery where parts of diamond set pieces were attached to a trembler to create movement in the jewel when worn. It's most common use was in brooches, especially for jewellery incorporating floral motifs or butterfly or dragonfly wings. There was a revival of the technique in the 1950s and 60s by Bulgari, and their jewellery became very fashionable with Hollywood stars.
