Custom-Made Chaumet Pearl Choker Necklace – 18kt Gold Diamond Clasp with Carved Pink Tourmaline Horse Cameo

A truly exceptional and one-of-a-kind Chaumet creation, custom-made for a private client by the prestigious Chaumet atelier in Paris. This bespoke choker necklace combines classical elegance with equestrian-inspired artistry, showcasing the brand’s hallmark attention to detail and Parisian refinement.

At its centre lies a finely carved pink tourmaline cameo depicting a horse’s head, a rare and elegant motif. The clasp is further elevated by a pavé-set diamond surround, comprising 61 brilliant-cut diamonds (three sections of 21, 21, and 19), each approximately 0.01ct, totalling an estimated 0.61ct.

This custom-made Chaumet choker necklace stems from the mid-century French period, combining classical elegance with equestrian-inspired artistry. The piece comprises a single row of 54 cultured cream-coloured pearls, each individually knotted, centred by a round clasp crafted in 18kt yellow gold bearing the signature and 750 stamp. A finely carved pink tourmaline horse head cameo rests at the centre of this clasp, encircled by a pavé-set diamond halo containing 61 brilliant-cut diamonds. The yellow gold elements include delicate wire wrapping securing the clasp to the pearl strand. Designed for formal wear or as a distinguished addition to a fine jewellery collection or display, this custom creation suits a connoisseur of haute joaillerie. The choker length sits high on the neck, offering versatility for evening wear or special occasions where classical design meets equestrian motifs. The pearls display their original natural lustre, while the stones and goldwork present clean surfaces without visible flaws. The round pendant measures 27.5 mm in diameter, anchoring the 46.4 gram total weight securely around the wearer's neck.

Mid-century French fine jewellery is recognised for combining high-grade gemstones, intricate carving techniques, and innovative metalwork produced by historic Parisian jewellery houses.

These pieces generally incorporate cultured or natural pearls, solid gold or platinum settings, brilliant-cut diamonds, and hand-carved semi-precious hardstones such as tourmaline.

Authentic pieces routinely feature official maker marks or signatures, French purity hallmarks stamped on the precious metal, serial numbers, and precise gem-setting craftsmanship.

A statement pearl necklace featuring a carved pendant pairs effectively with open-neck evening wear or structured tailored jackets to highlight the central design feature.

Store pearls flat in a soft pouch away from direct heat and dry conditions, avoid contact with perfumes and cosmetics, and clean gently using a soft damp cloth.
