This Edwardian necklace is composed of a nine-carat yellow gold chain and drop pendant set with three natural purple amethyst gemstones. The pendant features openwork wirework filigree scrollwork framing a central upright faceted oval stone flanked by two angled lower stones, suspended from a triangular link chain that connects to a circular top ring. The stones display natural variation in tone, the gold mounts have a polished finish, and the chain links are uniform in shape. The belcher or rolo chain measures 46 cm long, and the pendant section measures 5 cm by 2.8 cm, with a total weight of 5.0 g. The chain bears a stamp on the clasp and a hallmark on a link, and the piece is suitable for everyday wear or special occasions as a classic neck ornament.

FAQs

Edwardian jewellery, produced between 1901 and 1910, is characterised by lightweight filigree, openwork scroll motifs, and the frequent inclusion of faceted coloured gemstones set in gold or platinum.

These necklaces were commonly crafted using 9ct or 15ct yellow gold, featuring oval or teardrop faceted natural amethysts held within bezel or claw settings supported by wirework scrolls.

Authentic pieces usually display British hallmarks indicating gold fineness, delicate hand-shaped wirework, lightweight trace chain construction, and subtle millgrain or scroll decoration.

An Edwardian amethyst pendant offers slim proportions suitable for layering alongside fine gold chains or worn independently against dark or neutral necklines to highlight the purple gemstone hue.

Store the item in a soft fabric pouch away from direct sunlight, clean gently with warm water, mild liquid soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh ultrasonic cleaners.
