A gorgeous and exceptionally graceful Edwardian aquamarine and diamond necklace, dating to circa 1910 and handcrafted in 9ct gold with all the delicacy and elegance associated with the finest jewellery of the Belle Époque era.
This beautifully designed necklace is centred by an exquisite diamond-set upper panel, where a row of sparkling rose cut diamonds is arranged within a refined triangular frame. From this, elegant knife-edge bars descend, each accented with further rose cut diamonds, leading to a luminous round aquamarine of delicate icy blue hue.
Below, a slender articulated knife-edge drop continues the design, adorned with a charming leaf motif centred by another rose cut diamond, before culminating in a beautifully proportioned oval aquamarine drop that sways gracefully with movement.
The airy craftsmanship, subtle sparkle and soft blue aquamarines combine to create a necklace of remarkable femininity and refinement. Elegant, timeless and wonderfully flattering when w
...orn, this is a superb surviving example of true Edwardian style.
