ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Once upon a time, during the 1920s, this splendid Art Deco pendant necklace contained a timepiece which, unfortunately, disappeared sometime during the past 90 or so years. However, the glorious jewel remains perfectly intact and in pristine condition, with the crown (winder) magically (invisibly) removed and the crystal serving as a very lovely backing. The exquisitely detailed 2 inch long pendant sparkles with 1.65 carats of bright white European-cut diamonds, accented by mirror image calibre sapphire chevrons, and suspends from a rare original 21 inch long platinum chain (plus a 3 inch lavalier extension). Note the superlative hand engraving on the reverse. A truly gorgeous Jazz Age jewel.

About Art Deco Jewelry

Sleek and modern, Art Deco design brought jewelry into the machine age. Yet these stylish pieces still found room for the fine forms and lines of previous eras within their elegant architecture. In particular, we see many peaceful co-habitations of Edwardian and Art Deco styles together.

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.
