This Arts and Crafts silver festoon necklace dates from circa 1900 and originates from England. The piece combines silver work with bezel-set cabochon gemstones, including purple amethysts, orange coral beads, and glowing moonstones arranged in multi-strand link chains with festoon drop elements. Visible details include delicate double-strand chains at the upper neckline, articulated drop clusters featuring alternating gemstone shapes, and secure metal bezels framing each individual stone. The metal finish shows a polished silver tone, complementing the contrasting soft grey, bright orange, and translucent purple hues of the gems. It measures 8 cm in drop height and 43 cm in chain width. This wearable antique brings period character to a dressing table or jewellery display when not worn, and adds historic elegance to a contemporary outfit for special occasions.

FAQs

Emerging in the late 19th century, Arts and Crafts jewellery rejected mass industrial production in favour of handcrafted designs that highlighted natural gemstone cuts, organic motifs, and hand-hammered metals.

Craftsmen favoured silver over high-karat gold, setting it with semi-precious stones such as amethysts, moonstones, coral, and mother-of-pearl cut into smooth cabochons rather than faceted gems.

Authentic pieces show evidence of hand fabrication, such as open wirework, bezel-set cabochons, subtle hammer marks, and delicate silver link chains, often lacking modern precision or formal hallmarks.

A silver festoon necklace adds historical detail when paired with minimalist modern necklines, such as a crisp white shirt, V-neck silk blouse, or strapless eveningwear.

Clean softly with a lint-free cloth and avoid chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners, which can damage porous gemstones like coral and moonstone or strip natural patina from silver.
