ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

A rare and wonderful antique turquoise necklace - circa 1900 - created with classic Art Nouveau artistry. The centerpiece features a true-blue turquoise heart set in a curvaceous golden frame that supports a free-swinging turquoise-centered drop dancing below. The swag necklace continues all around with twelve bezel-set turquoises, all displaying black or brown spiderweb matrix. This very cool and artsy necklace measures 16 inches and the centerpiece measures just over 2 and 1/4 inches high by 1 and 3/4 inches across.

About Art Nouveau Jewelry

Looking to go organic? Bummed out (with good reason) by the Industrial Revolution, Art Nouveau makers embraced the natural world and a return to the hand-craftsmanship of an earlier time. Their overlap with both the Victorian and Edwardian eras resulted in a great deal of cross-pollination. Though relatively short in its purest form, Art Nouveau’s flowing lines continued to weave their way into fine jewelry.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
