Exquisite Edwardian Amethyst and Pearl Negligé Necklace 18ct Gold Pendant Circa 1910

1900 - 1920
Description

A truly elegant Edwardian negligé pendant necklace, finely crafted in 18ct white gold and set with three vibrant amethysts and two delicate seed pearls — a superb example of early 20th-century design and craftsmanship.

At the centre sits a cushion-cut amethyst of rich purple hue, from which two asymmetrical pear-shaped amethyst drops are gracefully suspended on slender knife-edge bars, forming the classic negligé style so favoured in the Edwardian era. The drops are subtly adorned with seed pearls, adding a touch of gentle lustre and refinement.

The pendant is fixed to an integral fine curb link chain, which fastens with a traditional spring clasp.

This piece hangs beautifully when worn — elegant, refined, and unmistakably antique.

This Edwardian negligé necklace dates to circa 1910 and follows the characteristic style of the period with asymmetrical drops. The pendant is formed from 18ct white gold and holds three vibrant purple amethysts alongside two small white seed pearls, suspended from a fine curb link chain. A central cushion-cut stone anchors two vertical knife-edge bars, which terminate in pear-cut amethyst drops tipped with pearls. Today, this antique necklace is worn as a personal ornament for formal occasions or daily wear, bringing historical Edwardian charm to modern outfits. The chain length measures 41 cm with a 26 cm pendant drop, fastening securely around the neck.

FAQs

A negligee necklace is a jewellery design popularised during the Edwardian era, characterised by two vertical drops of unequal length suspended from a central motif or gemstone.

These pieces were commonly crafted using 15ct or 18ct yellow gold, platinum, and white gold, often set with coloured gemstones such as amethyst, peridot, or aquamarine, paired with seed pearls.

Authentic Edwardian items frequently feature delicate platinum or gold settings, fine millgrain edges, geometric asymmetry, and period hallmarks corresponding to the early 20th century.

The slender, elongated design complements open-neck blouses, V-neck dresses, and formal eveningwear by adding a subtle focal point along the neckline.

Store the item in a soft pouch separate from other jewellery to prevent scratches, avoid exposure to liquids or ultrasonic cleaners due to delicate pearls, and wipe gently with a clean cloth.
