18th century

It was listed by Artisan Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

We are delighted to offer this gorgeous Georgian antique 18ct amethyst pendant made c.1820.

The pendant features a lovely multi stone design with fine cannetille work in between. Cannetille, a technique similar to filigree work was popular in the 1820-30s and features fine gold wires made into motifs of cils, scrolls and fine motifs.

This particular pendant is made from 18ct gold and features 5 larger oval faceted amethysts and 4 smaller and darker amethysts to contrast and accent each quarter. The top freely moving bail has also been set with three small seed pearls.

The amethysts are foil backed and cut in a way that depending on the angle glisten very brightly, making it a delightful piece to wear on a sunny day.

Its design, proportion and craftsmanship culminate in a distinguishing piece of jewellery unlike any contemporary pieces - a fabulous piece of Georgian jewellery ideal for the discerning antique lover and a wonderful way to express your passion of antiques and fine classical style.

A spectacular gift for someone special or for yourself, versatile and agreeable with a variety of clothing and other accessories.

Amethyst is known to be the birthstone for February.

The pendant is unmarked as is common with such articles of this period - as such we have fully tested it indicating 18ct gold.

All of our jewellery comes with a complimentary hard shell gift box with a velvet interior.

The Georgian era encompasses jewellery produced during the reigns of the four British King Georges from 1714 to 1837, characterised by hand-crafted pieces often featuring foiled gemstones, closed-back settings, and intricate metalwork.

Pieces from this era were typically hand-fabricated in high-karat gold or silver-topped gold, incorporating natural gemstones such as amethysts, garnets, and diamonds, often enhanced with meticulous techniques like filigree and cannetille wirework.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut gemstones, irregular tool marks indicative of manual fabrication, closed-back settings to enhance stone colour, and wear patterns consistent with age, lacking modern laser welds or standard cast seams.

Pairing historic pieces with contemporary minimalist attire creates a striking contrast that highlights the intricate craftsmanship of the item without overwhelming the overall aesthetic.

Store pieces individually in soft pouches away from moisture and direct sunlight, avoid harsh chemical cleaners or ultrasonic baths which can damage foils or softer gems, and have settings inspected periodically by a professional conservator.
