Art Deco Triple Strand Pearl Necklace with Jadeite Clasp, 1920s, Certified
A wonderfully elegant Art Deco triple strand pearl necklace, dating to the 1920s and finished with a striking jewelled clasp set with jadeite and zircon stones.
The three strands of cultured saltwater pearls have a soft cream tone with delicate pink and green overtones. Their near-round, semi-baroque and baroque forms give the necklace great charm and individuality, with the softly irregular pearls creating the natural movement and character so often admired in fine period pearl jewellery.
The necklace sits beautifully when worn, with the graduated strands falling gracefully around the neckline. Each pearl is individually hand-knotted, a traditional sign of quality and care, and the substantial weight gives the necklace a lovely presence.
The clasp is a beautiful feature in its own right. Designed in a bold Art Deco style, it is centred with an oval cabochon jadeite, rub-over set in yellow gold. The
...surrounding geometric white gold setting is decorated with 16 zircons and fine millegrain detail, giving the clasp the crisp, architectural look associated with 1920s jewellery design. A safety chain is fitted for added security.
This necklace is accompanied by a Birmingham Assay Office Pearl Jewellery Report, confirming the pearls as beaded cultured saltwater pearls, with the green stone identified as jadeite and the tested colourless stone identified as zircon.
A refined and highly wearable period pearl necklace, combining classic elegance with the distinctive glamour of Art Deco design.
